TL;DR at the bottom
I have so many desires, they are all fighting for my attention.
For example, I'm working out, all goes well, then during the workout I get horny and suddenly the most important stuff I need to do after workout is to get girls somehow... Later I go to work, my mind is overdriven with what I need to do about getting laid, I keep working like this for couple hours and then thoughts about my money affairs start to flood my mind and now the most important thing in my life feels to be getting my own apartment as quickly as possible... Just like getting laid, buying clothes for Tinder and shooting new pictures, getting my today's meals in, becoming a rapper and playing live at a festival...
You get my point. All this is amplified hugely by feelings. I'm a feelings guy, a lot. I don't think (nor want) that is going to change, but I want to be more in control over at least a few weeks of time. So I can focus on one thing, then another, then maybe focus on that 1st thing for two months, etc.
Speaking of which, amount of times I get reminded of my ex daily and how much it fucks up with my mood speaks volumes to me that I really should focus on getting laid right now. Get a couple of girls on rotation so I can forget about trying to have sex and have some fun.
Yet, there are quite some things that don't really need my constant attention, but I haven't done any plan on that would free up mental space, things like dentist, debt. This is easy tho, those more personal desires are harder for me.
Do you guys use any techniques that help get desires out of the mind and into some kind of external piece that I could refer to when I get those extreme impulses dragging me other direction?
