I wonder how much of that is... human nature?

it's like... we go like gangbusters in our lives doing the things that positively need to be done.

Then when we get a moment to breathe... we do the things we want to do more than the things we need to do.

Things work better with a slight sense of urgency, but less than full-on burnout (although fighting along up to burnout is probably pretty ruthlessly efficient)
