Too busy to write

Some mornings I feel like I'm too busy to write first. There are so many things I need to get done that it feels like a waste of time. It almost feels like I'm forcing myself to procrastinate instead of starting to do those more important things.

But writing is important as well. If it isn't done it will linger on the back of my head for the whole day and I can't give my full focus on anything else. So it's better to stay disciplined. There is rarely anything so urgent and important that it couldn't wait for fifteen minutes.

When there is something more urgent than writing it's better to do those first. Like with the writing stealing my focus, those things would also steal my focus while trying to write before them. It's better to focus on the most important thing first and give it my full focus. If there is another thing trying to steal that focus, maybe that is the more important one and should be dealt first.

Even when there is something more important than writing to start the day I should keep myself up to writing right after it's done.
