On Productivity and Motivation


Allowing yourself to be motivated and productive is a mindset. It's not as easy to turn on or off as flipping a light-switch, it's like having to go down into your basement at 3am in the pitch-dark, having to manuever through your dirty laundry and collections of junk while cursing your pack-rat tendancies and the fact that you don't have a working flashlight in the house to find the circut-breaker, then experimenting flipping all these different dials and switches in your attempt to find the one that will successfully turn the electricity back on.

BUT the good news is, the more often you go down this same path, the better and quicker you will maneuver through those moments of blindness. It's all about making a habit out of it and finding what works best for you personally.

Good luck! :)

That watch doesn't seem like it'd be very helpful at all!

Um, are you referring to our basement, by chance? A-MAZING.
