What does one do when one immerses oneself in a project?
I don't know about the rest of you, but I tend to jump into the deep end, submerge myself, and before I know it...ten hours have just gone up in smoke. This isn't necessarily a bad thing. Some might call it "flow" or another one of those fancy terms. However, when one's spouse sits one down the next day and tongue-in-cheek says, "Soooo, are we going to see anything other than the top of your head today?"...
...it may be time to re-visit some time management.

Yes, I tend to dive head-first into projects, especially when I sense value. Being wet behind the ears here at WA, I devoured Level 1 of certification training in a day. After a night's rest, it's clear that, like anything, I will flame out rapidly at this rate.
Me: But the training is so freaking GOOD!
Husband: Yeah, but WE are pretty cool too!
Author Josh Kaufman says that new skills can be learned quickly with a small, focused amount of practice per day. My husband has no idea what I'm doing with WA and I doubt he would be all that interested. But he does in fact take an interest in how much time I devote to any one project...especially when it consumes me. I can be easily consumed here (it's all fascinating to me) but I'm a firm believer in balance and harmony, for all concerned.
Happy 2020 everyone!
