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?

There was a web comic where the guy made sure he had enough “adult points” to rest and play. It’s a good way to think of it so you do the tasks first then allow yourself to rest and recover.
And yea the now or never has worked really well with my wife. If you think of it, do it.
