I always put everything off for later so i end up with my house uncleaned, books unread, meals uncooked, programming not learned etc. Could anyone offer advice on how to stop procrastinating?

Just thought it fitting to tell you that this comment of yours that I keep coming back to hit me harder than you might have anticipated. Thank you for sharing.

That's great! Thank you for the appreciation. I've had my fair share of procrastination so I know what it's like. 😅

Hey, so crazy idea, if you're looking for a life coach / mentor I would be happy to give that a try; it's something I've been meaning to break into. I imagine it would be weekly check-ins and dealing with some of the different problems you're facing, though we can adapt to what you need. Send over a PM if interested.

I feel guilty that you never heard back. 😕

And I think you and I are probably thinking on the same wavelength. I'm feeling better than I ever remember feeling, and I want to help others get out of it, too.
