  • The fastest way to get back on track: boredom

    If you're overstimulated, consider using boredom to your advantage. It's the most reliable way to de-stimulate your mind, get back in touch with yourself, and rediscover your creativity. If there's even a small part of you begging to come out and express itself (like creative potential, a dream, a mission, etc.) you will not be able to access it if you're stuck in a cheap dopamine spiral. Boredom/silence/rest is the way back to yourself. It's not easy, but it's straightforward. Give yourself time and patience. I'm right here with you. I hope this is helpful. https://stan.store/joshczuba

  • Let's procrastinate together for the next 20 minutes.

    Take 20 minutes to sit and procrastinate with me.

    Rather than yell at you to "just go and do it," I'd like to examine where this chronic procrastination is coming from and how we might be able to approach our inner dialogue differently.
    We're capable of more than we realize. We just have to start by:

    • adjusting our standards
    • taking action on the smallest thing right in front of us
    • rewarding ourselves with positive reinforcement to encourage repetition

      • If we can do that, we can begin approaching any task -- no matter how difficult.
