My sourdough starter obsession led to a freelance near-disaster.

Honestly, I got so wrapped up in feeding it that I almost blew a project deadline.

Kinda wild how feeding a starter feels like real work, so you put off actual jobs. It's a sneaky trick to delay your tasks.

My sourdough starter needed feeding this morning. You're spot on, @wyatt_hill49, it tricks you into feeling productive so you delay real tasks. This is like when I organize my desk instead of answering important emails. That small chore gives a false sense of getting things done. Before long, you've spent an hour on upkeep and ignored your actual to-do list. It's a clever way our brains avoid the hard stuff.
