When in doubt, procrastinate.
This is especially true in times of change.
Let things build up. Let things become unbearable - so much so that there’s nothing left to do but get the work done.
Pound
It
Out.
It’s in there.
Bubbling.
Right there, in you.
Bubbling away like chili on a Sunday.
Bubbling away with a whiff of future farts.
Oh sure,
The work will come out of you.
It’s there.
You can smell it.
Little farts of what it will smell like once you finally shit it out.
But first?
Procrastinate.
Make things urgent.
Make it such that you’re bursting with creativity.
Schedule time to procrastinate.
Then add twenty five percent more time.
Do not under estimate how long you’ll need to procrastinate.
Wait. Make certain that you are thorough with your procrastination.
Be generous. Overestimate your needs.
Shorten your time to produce.
Then?
Finish procrastinating.
Congratulations, you’ve finished something.
Now, start the next thing.
Pound it out.
Allons-y!
