one thing thats helped is working on my self awareness getting to the point where you realise that just because youre interested in something doesnt mean youll enjoy it look at what youre currently doing and find what you enjoy then hone in on that dedicate 15-30 mins a day to doing it ive found that small bitesized chunks done consistently have the biggest impact   for background context i live a rigid lifestyle where every minute of my day to day life is rigorously planned for me its really helped deliver productivity over a sustained period of time yes i have bad days where im like i cant be bothered and thats okay as long as i forgive myself i have the ability to start over the next day instead of ruminating on it and feeling guilty i hope these words may be of some comfort to you
