How I did it
How I did it: I started out by reading a few books on the subject. Like The Procrastinator's Handbook by Rita Emmet. I got me motivated but did not give me the lasting effects that I was after. One book really got me on the track: The Now Habit by Neil Fiore. It recommends focus on starting things instead of completing them perfectly. Also timeboxing is suggested. That is to decide to work on a task 30 minutes and use a stopwatch to time yourself… Read how I did it…
