    I actually tried doing that, but sometimes I look for answers in youtube, and then it goes on...

    I tried Cold turkey blocker, any similar apps that would have more features in the free version?

    You are motivating yourself through fear. Just fucking do it, takes less energy than overthinking.

    @pionell no idea, sorry. It was enough for me to realise how much valuable time I was wasting, and deleting few apps to stop procrastinating (for most part anyway)

    What i do is to break what I need to do in smaller and smaller tasks. Until one task takes no more than few hours. At this point I can pick a few task everyday and have a sense of achievement everyday. That's how I keep motivated

    If you can either going to work now and rest later or rest now and work later I don't see the problem with it as long as the work gets done
