I haven't had any checklist for a couple of months, due to holidays and so on. Earlier I've tried various formats; post-it, small notebooks, notes, paper, trello, notes (iPhone) and keeping it in my mind.

Sometimes the tasks are too large, and will easily take days to complete, which puts me off. Sometimes the tasks are too small, and I do them there and then. Sometimes they are right-sized.

When the tasks are written down, they become 'not important' and 'I can do it later', also they are easier to stow away out of sight :).

Not to mention there are also a couple of hundred open tabs of various stuff I'd like to research... but most of them can be probably be closed.

When it's routine, I've got no problems doing stuff like making dinner, vacuuming, exercising, getting groceries and so on.

But when it comes to projects, and publishing, I feel there is no more juice left.

Thanks Rob. It's been a long time since I wrote this much for a 'human' and not for a 'machine'. I'll try to continue reviving a couple of drafts.
