I am sorry, not to be a debbie-downer but this kind of "solutinos" seem to only "solve" surface level issues i.e they don't look at emotional reasons why we procrastinate. I belive if you truly want to improve yourself, atleast not procrastinate, you have to look at your emotioanal state. It's effective when you do this at the point of procrastination. Why am i procrastinating? what/how am i feeling? Am i running away from this problem? if i am , why? Anything that probes your emotional state will help you uncover why is it that you're procrastina/ting/te. And, this method might not be the only way, but all paths to deprocrastinate go through your state of emotions.

> "solutinos" Not sure you meant the neologism or if it's a typo - but I like the picture it creates. Also agree with your point about productivity and emotinos.

Agreed, procrastination is a feelings problem and it requires feelings solutions. Often when I finally start doing the thing I was putting off, the realization will hit me: "this is really hard," or "this feels really bad." I hadn't consciously expected those feelings but they were there under the surface, contributing to the urge to procrastinate. I remember this article really changing my mindset when I first read it. “Procrastination is an emotion regulation problem, not a time management problem....” https://www.google.com/amp/s/www.nytimes.com/2019/03/25/smarter-living/why-you-procrastinate-it-has-nothing-to-do-with-self-control.amp.html https://www.google.com/amp/s/www.nytimes.com/2019/03/25/smar...
