Delayed Start

Dear Conscience,

As I mentioned, I am currently in a pre-deadline mode, so I won’t take any of my productivity for granted unless it sticks beyond the deadlines. However, even now, when I do get some decent hours of work in, I actually start too late. I left myself some minutes of browsing allowed, which are supposed to serve as mental breaks. But I just use them up in the morning before actually starting to work.
I have to open the laptop, and immediately go do something useful. And there is no digital trick for this, I have to use my mind. This is my next habit I’ll try to enforce. Mindfully open the laptop and get to work. Slowly.

Sincerely,

B.
