You’re trying to work but you’re mind keeps thinking about something else.
It’s thinking about unloading the dishwasher. It’s thinking about running out to the shop to grab milk. It’s thinking about that other project that you want to work on.
Sometimes it’s best to indulge the distraction. To do the thing that’s on your mind. To get rid of it so you’re mind frees up.
Indulgence is not always wise. You must decide if on this occasion it will help.
