You know that #ADHD thing where you've put off a task for a geological age because it looked so damn intimidating?

And then you've decided you're going to do PART of it and you actually do it...

And you're accomplishing shit, you're in The Zone, no lie, but you also realize why you put it off for so long.

I don't know which is worse:

  1. Finally doing it, and it took very little time and effort, leaving me angry at myself for putting it off so long, or
  2. Doing it, taking all day, all night, finally leaving it unfinished at 3 am, berating myself for wasting so damn much time on this piece of sh*t I knew would be a nightmare!
