Pachelbel's Canon: Music
Some actions do not directly create time but fortify the individual to persist in solving time-wasting problems. Music and paintings fall into this category. Not only does Music soothe the savage beast but it facilitates ones thinking on solving problems. I know you will find this weird, but 90% of the time when working on Timism, I have Pachelbels Canon playing quietly in background. Since I first discovered it at age 25 (50 years ago), I have played it over 200,000 times. I have several 10-hour Youtubes consisting solely of Johanns most notable composition. This is the opposite of most people who want to listen to different music while working. As such, they self-distract and diminish their optimal problem-solving thinking.
Yes, I have my weird creature-of-habits. For years, I always took my bath at 9:25. Then, one day, I changed the clock battery.
