In Goal Factoring, does goal = motivation = desired outcome?
Hammertime aversions:
Currently procrastinating catching up on a few exercises
I want to follow through on my word to actually try every exercise
Perfectionism—don’t want to consider a day finished until I’ve really done it
Lonely—I don’t know anyone else IRL that would do this with me
I am highly motivated by social reenforcement
Feel guilty for not spending time on music/programming/career stuff
I am worried about the time I spend taxiing on the runway instead of just taking flight
Takes time and willpower
I often get distracted on the internet
My pomodoros/Yoda timers might be too short
Hammertime goals/motivations:
Get clarity on next actions in life + help strategize
Collect useful techniques
Practice “doing” instead of simulating
Introspection and personal problem solving
Collect low-hanging fruit and obvious things I’ve ignored
Clear up to-dos on my own terms
