I always put everything off for later so i end up with my house uncleaned, books unread, meals uncooked, programming not learned etc. Could anyone offer advice on how to stop procrastinating?

I have a similar issue, where some things get put off because I get obsessed with something else.

If you ever feel the obsession urge, may as well just indulge it right then. That’s how I clean my room.

That’s been my recent revelation on cleaning. It might be because I’m avoiding other things or because I wiped up a spill and I might as well keep wiping while I have the supplies out, but whatever the accidental motivation–I’m seizing the opportunity or it’ll never happen.
