fuckit, time to have a morning routine again gonna reboot my old 2015 routine: before I: 👀🍫 consume (check messages/feeds or eat) I shall: ☀️🏃♂️ go outside & do at least 5 secs exercise before which I shall: 🍅🐸 do at least 1 pomo towards prechosen frog (big scary task)
the "go outside" mostly functions to make the transition out of frog-mode much more obvious and harder to do mindlessly otherwise could easily be kinda like "hm, finished pomo #2, time for a snack"
it's a chain of minimum enjoyable actions, that in my experience often yields doing 3-8 pomos [25min work blocks] of important focused work before I eat it's self-reinforcing, because I love the state of focus I'm in before I've looked at any shit, so I want to fast for hours!
detailed elaboration from 2015 on how I do this and my thinking around it blog.complice.co/post/121559734…
