People who struggled with procrastination and have now stopped, what made you stop procrastinating? What do you think were the factors leading or contributing to your past procrastination and how did you stop or improve the situation?

Please don’t answer with the “I’ll tell you later” joke.

    Damn, I wanted to answer with that joke…

    I’d say I still procrastinate but less. The main factor is it make me feel anxious of not finishing stuff so I wanted a solution.
    The way I’m improving is to look at big tasks into smaller steps which are easier and quicker to accomplish, this way I feel better since there’s something I finished even when the big task might be still a long way of being finished.

    I remember something about 2 minute tasks or something like that, but also I saw this from my job, splitting projects into epics and each epic into tasks and even then you could split them into sub tasks (taken from the Jira types at my job)
