The benefit of any productivity hack / book / app is ephemeral before you are back to your "mindless" browsing (I wrote about it sometime back [1]). It's a great business isn't it? Write a book / app about procrastination — something that everyone is looking to "fix" and start raking money. You can write daily / weekly / monthly goals for all you want but a "guilt-creating" laundry list of tasks doesn't really help. Although, I do have my share of procrastination but I have gotten a lot better than I was an year back when I used to spend all the free-time on movies. This weekend, I read lots of New Yorker articles, a small book, and finished writing an article. To an extent, I think I can do better by working on a small side-project but then again, there is always room to feel guilty. You just have to hate wasting time and gradually, things will get better. There is no secret sauce towards working; if we had Facebook wouldn't be a multi-billion dollar company.
