DAY-58 (After Relapse)
Didn't post anything for 2 days since I wanted to take a break from computer screen. Last night I've went to bed at 1:15AM, so I've failed to wake up at 8:00AM (I've watched a movie). So yeah , I've failed to start off my day strongly ( I guess that happens sometimes). Couldn't do anything for the rest of the day since I had to help my parents around the house ( It took like 4hours from me). Afterwards I've felt tired and didn't have the strength/willpower to be productive.

DAY-55 (After Relapse)
Finally , woke up at 8:00AM and left my bed after 10mins. Not like after 1hour like yesterday. Afterwards, I've did my morning ritual. Then came 4hours of rhyming and it was aight. In short a normal day. I don't have any special things to brag about.

DAY-54 (After Relapse)
Didn't post anything yesterday cuz I was lazy and it was like 10:00PM anyways.
What is your approach to being productive?
I don't think that I have one. After finishing my morning routine I get straight into rhyming. I guess I can call my "Morning Ritual" as an approach to being productive. But I forget to do it sometimes lol. Anyways , the day was nice , I've done a lot of reading , been more productive than yesterday that's why I didn't write anything.

DAY-52 (After Relapse)
After watching "How to stop consuming content" by @Cam Adair I can say that Mastery will be the last personal development thing I'll do for a while. Since over the course of 1 year I've watched "TONS" of personal development videos , I've read a bunch of articles. And I can say proudly that I haven't done a single thing wich would have improved my social skills , expanded my social circle or any of that ( despite beating procrastination... kind of
). So yeah , I'll stop for a while and I'll try to get use of what I have acquired over one year.- Mood - Normal

DAY 51 (After Relapse)
(I have to brag)
Almost a week ago I've went to a bookstore to search for Mastery and The Art of War. Apparently couldn't find any of those ( eh). I guess I'll have to continue reading on my phone/PC ( things I do for self developement). About that bookstore , so when I was about to lose my hope and realise that my trip went all for nothing, a book called "A Song of Fire and Ice" caught my eye. I thought : "Hey isn't Game of Thrones based on that book?". It turns out it was, so I bought it without thinking twice since I love the TV show. I've been reading it for almost a week now and I can say that it was worth every penny. I really enjoy it. Don't worry I'm still reading Mastery and I'll finish it. Reading 2 books at the same time like a boss.

Day 49 (After Relapse)
Sorry for not posting anything for a while , my PC had some issues, so it took a while to fix em. And I lost all of my data so I was kind of pissed during the past 2 days. But nevertheless everything is over and I'm back. So I'm ready to continue my never-ending rambling about procrastination.
PS: Don't try to fix your PC on your own if you have no clue what you're doing
Because this might happen :
@Cam Adair Thanks for asking!

Day-43 (After relapse)
Finally , I've managed to start off my day strongly!!! By doing my morning ritual ofc ( I almost forgot to do that). Afterwards everything went smoothly, untill I decided to read Mastery during my 1 hour break. Since I don't own a physical copy of it , and my local library doesn't have it , I have no choice but to read it in the "E-Book" way ( I really hate to read books on PC). When I finished reading I couldn't turn off my PC for 3hours. Whole 3 hours of mindless internet browsing. I started to feel depressed. But the day was saved by one of my friends who came over my house and offered me to go for a bike ride. It was really nice , I've visited places in my local area where I haven't been before. Some really beautifull neighbourhoods and impressive sights of nature.

Day-42 (After relapse)
Here's a good video on creating a morning routine.
Thanks for sharing this video! Really helped! So I've took some ideas from this dudes morning ritual and created my own ( basically copied his). I need to say that it was awkward to do that smiling, talking to myself in the morning but it worked. I felt energized, I was in a peak emotional state. But I'm afraid I'll stop doing this after a few days. Just because I get bored very quickly and I can't help it. It's always been like that. Same goes with my schedule , I follow it , but only like for 1-2 days and then I start procrastinating ( If I use this word in tomorrows entry don't even leave a like) again. And I know how to prevent this from happening in the future ( by changing up my routine) but I'm just to lazy to do anything. Don't even know why. It's like a loop.

@Marquess don't be scared man, everything is gonna be fine ( I might be lying to calm ya down.) Anyways , if shit hits the fan you can always live in the woods as you told me. You know, just to live away from the spoiled society , live in the way as you always wanted. In your own world , with no restrictions, stereotypes and all that crap. In other words , you could create your own Utopia.
Looks comfy doesn't it ?

Day-41 (After relapse)
Okay I admit that , I got lazy on posting here. But it doesn't matter since I'm back. So the past 3 days was nice and hard at the same time. Hard because cravings are often and strong af sometimes. But I can live with that. Not a big deal since it's only a matter of time when they go away. I can't say that I'm doing some great progress towards beating procrastination ( omg I said it again) , but it's definitely better than it was before. I've started to read books, I'm more positive, my attitude changed towards many things ( in the positive way ofc). In short life's getting better ( kind of). Enough of my philosophy for today see ya tomorrow!

Great video as allwayz! I struggle with self-esteem as well. To be honest after watching this video , I think I've never put in the effort to build it. I'm "hard on myself" all the time , and I never think 'bout the good/cool things that I have done.

Day-38 (After relapse)
For the last 3 days I was looking for the reason why do I fail every day to do something... Turns out it was "bad morning habits" .Every morning the first thing I'd do would be to pick up my phone and turn on YouTube/Facebook or just start browsing the internet. By doing this , I'd get myself into a loop of browsing the internet and doing nothing besides that. In short , the emptiness that gaming left behind , was filled with Internet/YouTube and not by hobbies that I like. To prevent this from taking control of my life in the future , last night I decided to break those bad habits. So the first thing I did was shut down my internet router ( so in the morning I had to either leave my warm bed or start the day without internet). Then I've left my phone in the other room, so there would be no temptation to start browsing again. This simple trick seemed to work out really well, and helped me to "live" my day how I wanted.

Can you tell me more about Rhyming? I'm not sure what it is exactly
Rhyming=Rapping
That's what I thought.
So what would you say your success rate is of using the 4 1/2 hours you have allocated to Rhyming to doing it?
Well , the "success rate " depends from how I start my day... If I do that part well , then everything goes according to plan like it was supposed to.. About the "Rhyming" part , I made it like that so I wouldn't procrastinate it , because the schedule that I've had before, consisted of straight 4 hours of rhyming and with no breaks. That's why I procrastinated it all the time , since I knew that I have to do tons of work.

*sounds of frustration* didn't do anything for today.... I guess that's what happens when you loose 4hours of the most important part of the day ( morning).. Well , atleast I've bought that new PC mouse and headphones ( it's to hard to live without music) that I was looking for....

Left my comfort zone today! I've been to places in my hometown , where usually I wouldn't go ( places where most of my peers hang out). But I didn't meet anyone. It wasn't so "frightening" as I thought it would be.... Probably it's going to take a week before I can do this again

DAY-60 (After Relapse)
Had a dream about gaming. I think that's the 3rd one as far as I remember. I wonder how many I'm going to have in the future. I was playing a game wich I've never played before. The game was set in the American Civil war era. I was running around with a Springfield model 1861 rifle in a forest and shooting down rebels. The most fucked up part was that the graphics were ugly as shit, and it was laggy as hell. But when I tried to change the settings to reduce the lag , I immediately woke up. I guess my brain ran out of creativity
