Whenever I am putting something off because I don’t know how to start, I end up doing something else.
Or… if I hit a wall with a problem and cannot figure it out, I go do something else.
This is when I productively procrastinate.
Instead of mindlessly doing nothing, I usually end up washing dishes. Although I’ve been known to bring out the vacuum when required.
I put off the thing I need to do, by still being somewhat productive.
Nothing gets the synapses firing quite like warm, soapy water.
