Hobby Paralysis?

[Fluesheet]

When I find myself just frittering away time, I'll force the issue and start something - anything. Even if that's just reorganizing my modeling space. Most of the time I find myself getting involved with something I pick up, whether building, rolling stuff around, painting, taking care of that annoying chip in the bench that had been catching my shirt, etc.

The flip side is that this approach doesn't really accomplish things in priority order, but that's not the point at times like that.

Personally, I also find writing ideas or tasks on sticky notes and sticking them up helps focus my future self, as my time frittering times are sometimes caused by too many things to start leading to nothing starting. Some examples can be seen in these two photos:
Stickies where the work is - these point to tasks in specific places on the layout.


Board intended specifically for this purpose - the stickies have very, very small tasks all the way up to some gargantuan sized ones (they're actually sorted this way). I don't take a lot of time planning what goes on the stickies - formal planning slows me down. If I have any idea, it goes on a sticky for later action.
