      6 I'm in my first week of learning Lisp programming.
      7 
      8 During it, I've realised that it's very easy for
      9 me to feel productive when I'm not:
     10 - When I finish **anything** I spend a lot of time testing it *when there's no reason to*
     11 - I spend even more time reorganizing what I've done rather than progressing
     12 
     13 It's impressive how hard the brain tries
     14 to trick me in order to work less.
     15 
     16 The goal of replacing all my stack for lisp was partially
     17 to reach a state of flow:
     18 that state where you know exactly what you're doing
     19 and don't need to look anything up,
     20 where you build your project at the speed of thought.
     21 I thought removing syntax noise would be a good start.
