This popped up for me today, and I realized is very close to how I manage to trick myself to get things done even when it feels like my body’s parking brake is on.

To me it feels like just “building momentum” in any way helps. If I’m in working mode, it’s easier to pick up a cleaning task than if I’m in sofa mode. Sometimes just cleaning some lint from the table is enough to get the ball rolling.

Does anyone else have this, or similar techniques?

    When I need to do important things, I research procrastination avoidance techniques for 2 days before doing them.

        It’s important to be well informed so I don’t find myself unintentionally falling in to some sort of procrastination trap.
