I will almost always clean my house before I’ll do the thing I’m having resistance toward at the moment. “Anxious cleaning” my sister calls it. Honestly, since I’ve recognized what it is (avoidance/procrastination) my house is messier but I’ve made so much more progress on my writing!

Very relatable! There's almost an uncontrollable urge to clean once a blank document is on my computer screen 😂
Perhaps the wall of resistance should be approached as we learn to do when in a marathon.
Exactly. The same way endurance builds slowly through years of training, we can develop our ability to overcome resistance and avoid distractions
