I'm not exactly sure how else to describe it, but Stay Focusd and I have a long, storied history. It doesn't help that I've always been a productivity freak. I forgot where I heard the phrase, but I think it fits me so well: anyone who uses creative solutions to motivational problems is directly competing against a version of themselves who is more motivated and more creative than they are.

Am I talking myself out of installing it again? Yes.

My therapist has been working on the process side for me a lot. This week he's encouraging me to see the to-do list in terms of tactics- like little chess puzzles, haha. It's a weird visualization, especially since I already get 'chess brain' visualizations already.
