RE: Something from Nothing: Procrastination. Idealism. Nihilism.
I also have a serious case of procrastination. For me it's the thought of the long term damage I am doing to my life that makes me act on unpleasant tasks. I like your take on removing the idea of unpleasantness from the task at hand. Have you ever read Tim Urban's post on procrastination at WaitButWhy? He comes at it from a very different angle from you, but it's a great post
This. and when I realize it my anxiety shoots through the roof and i stay up all night feeling like I've wasted everything, leaving me unable to sleep so the next day at work I'm barely functional and then I can't do anything when I get my freetime.
That's why I try to just stay in the moment and be active to avoid the procrastination.
Damn the dark playground
