This, I strongly encourage this way of finishing task. On monday, I just dive into all the stuff I gotta do that week, poking around and even writing some test cases, even if the task isn't finished. This reduces pre-deadline pressure and allows me to continuously brainstorm robust solutions throughout the week for timely delivery with quality outcomes.

My ocd stops me doing this. I like to close out the task before I even go home, or I feel like something is incomplete… weird. I am gonna really try implement this now though. Have seen it recommended multiple times.
Just like the author suggests leaving a failing test case so it's easier to resume, I leave a syntax error, or something small of the sort undone.
It has been a much better way to tackle the inertia of getting started.
