I've been thinking (and acting) on this new idea of "working on the most important thing".
I'm trying to actually live up to that motto.
I used to set aside time every morning to write this daily journal. But I found that the mental energy of writing a journal could take away from more important things.
So I decided that I should not be doing this daily journal in the morning along with other non-important things.
It's going very well for me, but I'm still committed to doing this daily journal.
However, that means that I write this journal at the end of the day when I'm fried. Instead of having ideas flowing and excitement about writing, I'm often just going through the motions and just getting something posted.
But that's OK! I will go through different phases. Sometimes, I'm thinking deeply and writing deeply, and sometimes I'm just grinding and being productive.
Right now is a productive phase for me, but I know that will change - who knows what/when will be the next phase.
When I started this daily journal, I told myself I could write anything - and sometimes that can just be a checklist of what I did that day, or literally one word, or some quoted lyrics - who cares...
