how i write blog postsand how i try to get myself to do anything, really

  1. technical part
    • pretty much only html/css, js only if i really dont want to do something manually
    • yes, i hand place $lt;u> around the first letter of each sentence. i like it
  2. brain part
    • i have adhd
    • i also have the fun debuff where pressure makes it even harder to do stuff
    • make it as easy as possible to get started with a thing
      • i just have to open my text editor, run the command to start my local nginx instance and everything is ready to go. but i can also always edit the html file on the github repo without setting up anything
      • for vacuuming: have the vacuum easily accessible and not stowed away in your basement
    • make it as comfortable as possible to do that thing
      • doing things should be as enjoyable as you can possibly make them.
      • i found a text editor that might not be the objectively best thing out there, but it feels comfortable to me.
      • i have plants around me and art on the wall above my monitor
      • if you think about doing something and there is something about it that makes it less enjoyable, see if you can improve it
    • make it harder to do things you shouldnt do
      • good example are snacks. out of sight, out of mind: put the snacks away in a place that is out of sight and far away from where you usually are
      • put your phone in a drawer, close chat apps on your computer, anything like that
      • have distractions that are less bad or maybe even useful. things to fidget with, the crochet piece youve been working on
    • try to remove the consequences of things not working out/make it easy to finish
      • my blog posts are already on my website, if i dont finish them the work isnt wasted. they can still be useful
      • i only work in the html file, all my notes are here. if i want to be done with a post, i can theoretically leave it as-is and all the information is there
      • try to structure a project in a way that allows you to bail at any time while still having something presentable. work on basics first, then go into details

idk if this will actually end up being a finished post but thats the whole idea
