Are you talking about sex? 
One of the reasons we even worry about productivity is because we have things on our to-do lists, we don’t even want to touch. 
---
Go ahead, look over your to-do list. How many items do you actually feel motivated to tackle? Chances are, there are only one to three items that give you any sense of excitement.

The Secret to Productivity is Working on Something You Love
Thinking differently about work
davidawiebe.medium.com@davidandrewwiebe
The thinks we love are not always the things that need to be done. Maturity involves buckling down and doing what is necessary.
@furious_george47 which was not the point of the post. I ALWAYS do what I need to do.
In a world obsessed with stats and results, it’s easy to get caught up in the wrong thing. 
---
We need to be able to put our blinders on, even if it’s only for a short duration, to focus long enough on the process that we see desired results flow in.

davidawiebe.medium.comI think that would be an interesting question too. If big tech is going to be taken down, then Medium will be gone for sure. But if political agendas continue on, then it's practically a given where it's going (LGBTQ+, racism, cancel culture, etc.).
@davidandrewwiebe Pardon my pretention but the sooner you get Biblical the better this will be for you. Islam, founded by a pedophile and advocate. Treats women like animals. Jews. They backed the wrong horse. Christianity is the mortar that binds our society by the strict adherence to the ten commandments. If your view of life precludes that, trouble will follow you. Do yourself a solid and find a copy of 'The case for Christ'. It opened MY eyes. Love you brother.
@arjayem you lost me completely. I have no idea what you're talking about. You might want to address your comments to the right person.
@davidandrewwiebe I'm just shaking your cage. You have a lot to offer the new world we're in. My thing is the undeniable and ancient roots of this war we are in. Unfortunately, it takes years to appreciate what the Bible is. Did you know that John who wrote Revelation was the last living apostle. 90 some when he died. They couldn't shut him up so they banished him to Patmos. There, w/friends from above he wrote Revelation. What it all were true? Love you brother, you'll do well

@arjayem I spent the first 30 years of my life in church. I read the Bible. I read The Case for Christ. I read dozens if not 100 of other books about Christianity, spirituality, and religion. I watched WAY TOO MUCH Joel Osteen, Joyce Mayer, John Maxwell, Patricia King, etc. etc. Indeed, what if we were in the end times! I have already had to come face to face with that. I have confronted whatever was there for me. Have you? I'm going about doing my purpose and mission. Are you?

It pays to obsess over function rather than form. Literally. And that applies to content as much as it does to design. 
---
Many entrepreneurs will find themselves creating content to grow their business.

But it’s altogether too easy to get caught up in trying to become a YouTuber than in showing up and serving your audience. And the two approaches lead to vastly different results...

No matter who you are, there will be ups and downs in your creative career.
