I procrastinate. I procrastinate a lot. This line hit so close to home > “We don’t rise to the level of our goals, we fall to the level of our systems.” Instead of fighting the procrastination, I embrace it. Now whenever I lack the motivation to do what I ought to be doing, I pick one item on my procrastination list. Currently the list contains reading, stretching, sharpening kitchen knives and reading HN (consciously). Having the list forbid me from for example wandering on youtube or reddit, which I consider activities of absolute negative to zero return. Having the system give me a good baseline to fall to which I find useful. Time to back to work
