I don't know if I'm even in the right subreddit for this. However, a couple weeks ago, I had a course in effective learning. One thing that caught my mind was what they called "camouflage tasks". This is a task that seems inherently more important at the moment than what you're about to is even though it is not.
An example for this could be: instead of doing my math, I felt a great urge of writing this post, program a little bit and clean my vacuum my house etc.
Here's the thing: after being aware of this little thing, I notice this happen no matter what. It's not that I prefer programming or cleaning my house over doing my math (Math is one of my favorite subjects). It's that these camouflage tasks show up no matter what. Whenever I'm about to clean my room, I might just end up doing my math instead.
Is there anyone that know the answer to why this happens?
