The title is really vague, so I’ll try to clarify my intentions here:

I am an ardent supporter of FOSS. It will be greatly beneficial for my life and especially my privacy to self-host such software. Yet, I cannot find much motivation to do so.

However, when it comes to hosting software for public use, I can usually give my utmost concentration and dedication.

This is not how I want my life to be. I want to be motivated for myself as well as for the community. And if that’s not possible, I need to trick my brain into bringing me into that kind of zone for myself.

What do I do? What would you do in this situation?

    Well, see now thats the thing…there are plenty of cookbooks out there, but I have my own preference as to which I own.

    I most definitely need to write things down to keep shit organized- in my corporate life I wrote many “books” for each account i opened and updated my own account “book” every year.

    On a daily basis I used a lined paper grid: Top left; shit needed to be done today, Top right, new shit; bottom left, shit to be done but not urgent/this week; and bottom right long term goals/projects This had to be on a clipboard and not a closed binder because: out of sight, out of mind.
