It’s no coincidence that the harder tasks on the to do list are left to last.
I call it productive procrastination!
You scan your to do list, you see difficult tasks amongst easy tasks and you choose to do the easy tasks first. You rationalise this by saying it’s quick and easy but really you’re simply avoiding the arduous larger tasks.
You are still completing things that need to be done but in a way that enables avoidance.
Productive procrastination! Coming to a to do list near you!
