how do people even stick to their goals?

for me, there's always just The Goal, and if i'm serious about it, everything else starts derailing.

if you're so busy with your goal that you're not showering, eating or paying bills, bad stuff starts happening pretty quickly.

so you have to ruin your focus on the goal to take care of these stupid everyday matters, and by the time you're done with those, you've lost sight of The Goal.

i have a flip switch with two labels on it:

LIFE [O ] GOAL

"why don't you just orchestrate a larger plan that incorporates the goal then?"

i can't have that many thoughts in my head at once!
