I've got a weird version of "net lazy"motivation. Anything I can do now to make a future task easier, I am strongly motivated to do. Anything that would be easier if I wait for [blank] I will ignore until the ideal moment that would make it the easiest.
It oftentimes leads to peculiar optimizations, but it has worked surprisingly well for me so far.
This is exactly what spurs me to wash my dishes right after using them. It's much less stressful to clean a single plate & fork now, than to return to a sink full of dirty dishes later. I'd rather just get it over with while it's still easy to do.
Yep, exactly this. Wash the plates and silverware now before stuff gets dried on there... Except that casserole dish with the crispy baked on border of crust. That is soaking for a couple hours to save me a little effort. I'll was every dish but two just because it'll be easier later.
