"How to Practice 'Productive Procrastination'"
An essay in which I meditate on the idea of inventor Saul Griffith ...
... which is:
Pick some side "learning projects" -- little things you want to do that require you to pick up a new skill
Then when you can't face work ...
... do one of your side projects for a bit
It's -- worked for me? My essay on it: https://clivethompson.medium.com/how-to-practice-productive-procrastination-e2522247bd07

@clive If I started to clean up, my wife used to ask me what I was avoiding. Now I have youtube. In that spirit, I knew this strategy sounded familiar. https://youtu.be/zcNT2pMyFn4?t=109
