Tackling procrastination head-on

work expands to fill the time available, so I set a timer for each task and force my attention to finish it in the time allotted

Sticky notes of top to-dos. Lately, the thing I have loved doing is writing down nd visualizing my day the night before. So I walk through my next day knowing exactly my priorities and what I will be doing and it's going great! Also on sundays I do a week review :D

Absolutely! Lately, I've been starting my days by doing the tasks I like the least. I think putting off stuff happens mostly because we don't want to do certain things. By getting those out of the way on purpose, I end up feeling good about finishing them and then I have an easier day after that!

I start with some quick wins to boost morale, and then I work my way up towards more time-consuming tasks. I do have a project management tool that I use, which helps a lot. When I'm REALLY not feeling productive, I change my scenery and get outside for a quick walk.

The 2 best ways to overcome distractions are : - remove the easy dopamine hits like scrolling tiktok or twitter, you'll likely feel bored and do what you really need to do instead. - keep a constant reminder of what you need to do. (To -do lists, calendars, notifications and everything that can remind you to do stuff)

newton’s first law of motion states that every object will remain at rest or in uniform motion in a straight line unless compelled to change its state by the action of an external force and I believe this applies to procrastination as well!! to tackle procrastination, you need to positively disrupt your workflow by introducing positive enhancements which are easily available by AI now a days.
