πHave multiple projects to work on
Have multiple project to work on and switch between them when you want.
Forcing yourself to stick to one project (even in times when you donβt feel like it) exercises your willpower and drains your energy.
On the other hand, doing only what interests you at the moment helps to keep you motivated and full of energy (Autonomous choice enhances motivation/energy).
This multi-project aspect is a core principle in Β§ Zettelkasten (Ahrens2017) and Incremental Reading.
