- Writing makes me happy.
- Taking photos of parrots makes me happy too.
- I like to be happy.
- It is hard to choose just one picture when you are taking 45 photos of parrots a day.
- I can write 2000 words in a morning and still have time to do other work.
- If I have written 2000 words in a morning, I feel justified slacking off and not doing other work.
- Part of the reason I have been paralysed with procrastination the last few months is that, when I tried to write something, it reminded me of how much more research I needed to do, and when I tried to do extra research, I felt guilty for not writing.
- Writing makes me feel like I am making progress. Research allows me to actually make progress.
- Writing can be fast. Research is slow.
- How come it took me three months to realise that the solution to (7), (8) and (9) was to do both writing and research every day?
- Writing takes less time than you expect. Good writing takes more time than you expect.
- See (1) and (2). I can't emphasise these points enough.
- I think I could spend my entire life writing and taking photos of parrots. Does someone want to give me a job as a wildlife journalist?
