I spent an hour on this opening paragraph.
The hour wasn’t time well spent, mind you. Sure, I was working — writing, deleting, tinkering with words here and there — but my one-paragraph-per-hour pace wasn’t out of indecisiveness as much as a lack of motivation.
I spent
- five minutes on the email
- ten minutes on Instagram
- and fifteen minutes doing who-knows-what on Tumblr
(Just kidding, I know exactly what I was doing: watching cat videos.)

Motivation is a tricky thing to corral. Tricky, but not impossible.
