I just sit here and stare at the computer. Or, I stare at the ever-growing stacks of articles. Or, I lie down. Or, whatever else. Anything to not work. I've discovered the key: remain mindful, break it down into component parts, and think of each piece as a short paper. Chpater are big. Dissertations are bigger. I need to change my mindset so that I only see the small parts. And then later I can piece them together. Focus. Focus. Stay on task. Get it done. D is for Done. Do it. Just do it. Get 'er done. AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH
