I figured out that time wasters aren’t as much a waste as you would think. First, for someone like me who comes up with ideas for new posts 6 times a day, and new projects 7 times a week, getting your brain to stop going all over the place is useful. I’m already buried enough under life changing plans as is.

Second, letting your mind wander is just too absorbing. You blink, and you’ve missed your stop or have forgotten to take your wallet with you to the store. Better to be messing around with a puzzle or something that leaves enough room in your head to remember tasks.
