I usually need some time to get all the strings together and re-think my main thoughts from last time. When I jump from topic to topic it's usually because I can't decide what to do. Either due to total excitement for all the topics or due to the total non-existence of excitement for the stuff I have to do.

But... I wonder if you are asking the wrong question. From your description, it doesn't sound like you are not being productive, just not doing the things you set out to do. Are you actually getting less done this way than otherwise, or are you just getting different things done. If the latter, and you aren't falling into the trap of putting off things with deadlines tomorrow by working on things with deadlines next week, does it really matter?Barefoot Doctoralhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03116876526923906034noreply@blogger.com
