Today I was more "organized" than I usually am. I like the results, but it didn't make me more productive, it made me just want to tidy-up some more.

It's like earning money in some ways, you really want to keep earning it (whether a job or selling used items) where the feeling you get is positive the more you do it.

In the end I just have to be in the mood. It's not because I dread doing it as much as I feel "well, it won't stay that way" or whatever. It occurs to me that it's also a control issue. "You" are the master, not the thing, which I feel is an illusion.

Thanks for the thoughts and some lolz so far, please don't stop!
Fact is, when you get stuff done, you are more in control of your life. Not the reverse.
