拖延日志，I began keeping a “procrastination journal” (sounds stupid, I know, but hear me out). Every time I caught myself procrastinating, I’d quickly jot down: 每次发现自己在拖延时，我就会迅速记下 #card

• What I was supposed to be doing 我本应该在做的事情

• What I was doing instead (usually scrolling Reddit or watching yt shorts) 我当时在做什么（通常是刷 Reddit 或看 YouTube 短视频）

• How I was feeling in that moment 我当时的感觉

And then I would read it at the end of the day. At first, it felt pointless. But after a few weeks, I started noticing patterns.#card 然后我会在一天结束时读它。起初，这感觉毫无意义。但几周后，我开始注意到一些规律。

• Turns out, I wasn’t just being “lazy”

  • I was avoiding specific types of tasks when I felt overwhelmed or unsure where to start. 不知道如何开始

• I am a software dev who also do the product management at my company.

  • 讨厌功能研究

  • And I hate doing “research” on features.

The weird thing is, just being aware of these patterns made them easier to deal with.#card 奇怪的是，仅仅意识到这些模式就让它们更容易处理。

• When I know that if i had to do research, greater changes i won’t be productive today. 当我知道如果必须进行研究时，今天就不会有太大成效。

• And now Instead of beating myself up, I started break down the scary tasks into smaller chunks. 现在，我不再自责，而是开始将那些令人生畏的任务分解成更小的部分。
