Genuinely so much better than doomscrolling as a way to pass the time. Completing a crossword gives me more of a dopamine rush than nutting
Not “I want to do this” or even “I need to do this”. Those don’t work. Make use of our subservient little monkey brain and say “I have to do this.” If you HAVE to do it, you’ll just get it out of the way quickly so you can move on to do something better.
