Over the last few months I’ve successfully shifted about half my play and work life to a process-dominant model as opposed to project- or habit-dominant. It’s like the difference between flowing highway driving and stop-go city traffic in a gridlock.

Does this mean you focus on tasks based on the kind of work that needs to be done as opposed to which project it belongs to?

I don’t have many projects any more. The process state is a stimulus I respond to, which transforms the state, making it the stimulus for the next time I visit the process. Prioritization gets simplified down to process switching.
Hard part is casting something into process form

Are you using "process" as an analogy to parallel computing?
I guess I can see what you mean by this but unlike computer processes and task switching, some processes may be allowed to stop if they're deemed no longer useful to run (maybe the client can send a SIGTERM)

Then the thing to read up on to understand what would be different from my current workflow would be schedulers, thanks! :)
