The key, I’ve found, is folders. Keep email folders. So instead of keeping that old email you might need in your inbox you can throw it into an appropriate folder. Its just as fast as deleting it, but you know its still around, and categorized so its easier to find.

Of course, now I have folders full of old stuff, but at least its stuff I probably want.

Also I delete any newsletters or whatever that I haven’t read in a few days.

One of the best vacations of my life! Went on a roadtrip with my wife and 3 other friends. Really good times.

I don’t know how I stopped. I used to be a terrible procrastinator. However, I ended up in a situation (Compsci Degree) where procrastination meant gauranteed failure. It kindof forced me out of the habit.

Now, the fear of the consequences of procrastination are much stronger than the desire to avoid doing something. Procrastinators try not think about the consequences of procrastination, but for some reason nowadays, I can’t not think about them.

So, unfortunatley I don’t have any advice on how to stop. For me it just happened. I miracle I guess?
