You write: "In order to counteract my random schedule, each week I break down my larger goals into smaller, manageable chunks." But Jason says: "Tired of productivity articles instructing you to break down large projects into smaller, more annoying, and less interesting tasks?" His recommendation is not to make a list of items that you want to do, but instead to figure out what you are doing *wrong*. Then you try *not* to do that for a week. Seem like the opposite to me. :-) Hmm.
