I'm trying to gather thoughts on how to approach problem solving or long task in a way to chunk steps just right to match my natural stamina.

There are a few things that make working ok if not delightful:

- generating ideas to try

- having an idea of the space covered

- keeping track of progress (even a well marked dead end feels good, it's done work) .. bookmarks in a way

- placing little context notes on bookmarks so when you jump in you're ready to plug your mind in more easily

- crafting a bed to try an idea with very low friction. Take a good amount of time to devise your bench/lab and then iterate smoothly.

- all of this with the notion of quickly converging toward what's good and trim what's not

I'm failing hard at it right now but I still believe it's one good way.
