Ever waste your energy trying to decide what to do?

Something I've been trialling with creative pursuits is having a focus for each day. Wednesday and Saturday I sew, Thursday and Sunday I practice drawing, and Tuesday and Friday I tackle complex knits. (Monday is my day of rest, and every day is a day for general knitting.)

Due to fatigue, I may only manage 30 minutes, or 10, or none at all, but at least my limited energy doesn't all go on dithering about what project to tackle today.

I'm finding the strategy very helpful, and look forward to using it in my writing work (drafting a new book, recording & editing audiobooks, formatting ebooks...) when health permits.

I got the idea from Slow Productivity by Cal Newport - a book well worth a read, even if (like me) you have to wait half a year in a library queue.
