• Do half of the task
• Do 1/4 of another task
• Stare at something for a while
• Start a third task

There was a study done that discovered people with vivid imaginations would imagine they were doing a certain task that they needed to do, and their imagination of doing it was so powerful that their brain checked it off as being done. I wish I had the citation for this, but I can't find it.

So you get the satisfaction reward for accomplishing your tasks without actually doing them.

I think this mechanism explains some things.

Im on a streak since november with the same task.

…Maybe I should get diagnosed.

Actually it'll be the first thing I do tomorrow when I wake up at 6am 😊
