Hmmm. At first glance, it seems that the differing scores for 'must does' and 'desires' form a pattern.
Your must-does are noble and selfless, showing a tremendous conflict with your desires.
I'm reminded of a line in a movie where Robin Williams plays a psychologist and a man lights a cigarette, but also says he's trying to quit. RW sees the conflict and says "Trying to quit is for pussies who can't commit. Your either a smoker or you're not. Figure out which and do it!"
Commitment issues? That can lead to scatter-braining, waffling, and a lot of unfinished projects. And I should know. I usually do 90% of what I commit to. When 90% is done, I lose all motivation and move on to the next project. Bummer.
Thanks for the blog. -- Mike
