If it’s going to take less than 15 min, do it!

The thing is that I’ve been taking a look at my pending drafts.. and there are quite a lot of them.

Probably the main reason is that I like to save ideas I have while I’m working for later, which is not bad, because otherwise I would loose focus on what I’m doing. The problem is that once I finish the work, I don’t come back to write the article.

The problem with later is that I never get time to finish the work on the same day, and not doing so, causes that after some weeks, when I see the draft again, I don’t even remember what was my point about. Even, sometimes, I have no idea about how to write the article, because I don’t remember the concepts I should to write an interesting article.

The other day I was reading an article on Juanjo’s blog about how important is to write short posts or micro-posts (in spanish), and I think it makes sense to write short posts nowadays, so following this guidelines I think it could probably make more sense to spend 10/15 minutes writing an incomplete post (that could be completed later with other micro-posts), than leave a draft that never gets written.

What about you? Do you have any idea about how to solve this lazyness problem?
