what works for me is micro-goals have a lot of stuff that seems daunting break it into tiny little steps steps that are so ridiculously small that you cant justify not doing them right then   -pick up that sock on the floor  -do 1 ab crunch  -brush your hair for 2 minutes  -read 3 sentences in that textbook  and so on if you do these tiny goals congrats you checked off your to-do list now you can enjoy your time guilt-free and maybe tomorrow do a couple more tiny goals if it stays just at the bare minimum thats fine however a lot of times once you just start the task its easier to keep going so you pick up that sock and oh look theres another sock over there well okay might as well pick that one up too right and there you have it youve doubled your accomplishments well done  it seems silly and ridiculous i know but for me just even starting a task is what i procrastinate and seems mentally tiring because i make it seem like a bigger chore in my mind than it really is    i hope maybe this method works for you at least this way you wont feel bad about no time to do anything you can at least find time to pick up that one sock right
