Hi, I'm Rick, an industrial design student at UW-Stout. Im doing a senior project aimed at understanding why and how we do nothing, in the hopes of finding a miracle object that solves slacking forever! Please tell me stories of how procrastination affects your life, and maybe some tricks or things you've tried to get control back, if you ever get around to it

Thanks!!!!
Know what you want and stick to it, step by step, however small each step is.
There are no miracles.
And even if there are miracles, it usually takes a long life-path to make it to the level where one is able to understand. Then comes the big AHA!
I have things that I think are miracles, that few years ago I thought they are nonsense, and I know if I will push them forward here, nobody will understand and most will think I'm a new age lunatic.
For one thing, I usually recommend energy psychology methods.
Though, any workable current psychology methods shall work, usually, the problem is it depends upon finding the right therapist and some take years which is a big NO NO in my book.
