Procrastination is my biggest weakness. I’ll set out to do one small task and then somehow end up scrolling on my phone for half an hour. By the time I get back to it, I feel guilty and less motivated. What’s frustrating is that it’s rarely big projects I delay — even basic chores or sending a short email gets pushed off. I’ve tried making to-do lists, but sometimes they just overwhelm me more. Curious what simple tricks actually help people get moving without overthinking.

One trick I’ve noticed helps is setting a timer for just a few minutes.

It’s funny how starting is the hardest part, and once that barrier is gone, things flow a lot easier.
