I have the chance to love my work. I started a few years ago a company with a friend of mine that I've known and worked with for 10 years. I try to spend as much time as possible with my family, and the rest is just work. I would basically still do the same thing if I didn't have to, but without the overwhelming pressure. I would also travel more, my work can be done remotely, and I'd love to meet more people from around the world. But 90% of the money I earn goes to food/water/rent. My procrastination just makes me do in a few days what I could do in a few hours. I don't really delay stuff, I just do it slower. I've stop pressuring myself into doing it quick because it would increase my anxiety.

What do you think is scarce in your life? Time? What do you think about death?

  I'm not sure I understand the question, but I would say yes, if I could stop time for a while to just work, then unpause it and live life to its fullest (the other way around is useless since everybody else is frozen), that would be awesome. > What do you think about death? I try not to think about it too much. Contemplating your own mortality when you have anxiety and procrastinate easily, this is a highway to a depressive state (at least for me). I prefer to practice mindfulness.

    It seems to me like I have been where you are and for me the solution was to first get stable via enjoying life with my pleasures e.g. spend time with people with whom I enjoy spending time, doing things I like, regular connection to my body (workout), connection to my wife e.g. book "hold me tight". And after I got stable, I found my resilience via tackling the question of death because it contained the solution to my happiness/struggles. Also, happy to share my experiences with you off-topic if you want because it changed my life. You can find my contact details in my profile
