Nobody likes doing mun­dane tasks. Nobody. Not even the mots obses­sive-com­pul­sive per­son in the world enjoys mun­dane, bor­ing, triv­ial tasks, espe­cial­ly when they usu­al­ly don’t make a dif­fer­ence right now.

And then, like clock­work, they make a big dif­fer­ence. And you’re stuck doing all your mun­dane tasks at once, even though they suck. And you hate them. And they’re tedious, and bor­ing, and all lots of oth­er neg­a­tive adjec­tives. But they’ve got­ta get done.

Instead, fig­ure out what things you can auto­mate, so they’re hap­pen­ing even though you don’t do them.

For me, that’s spellchecking.
