I’ve 4 books I want to read/re read. At least 3 video games I want to finish and at least 4 shows/movies/anime I want to catch up or finish. I wish I could get everything done that I want to by the end of the year.
Cut it down into smaller chunks. Just read a single chapter instead of the whole book. Play one level or mission of the game. Savor the small victory of having finished something, then go do something else and come back later.
It takes a little discipline and practice, but after a while, it’s not so bad and you end up getting a lot more done than you think.
That’s not going to help when the problem is that I’ve so many things I plan to do. I’ve just finished a game (trails into reverie) that I’d been playing for a month next I’ll finish blue eye samurai as I’ve 3 episodes left and then I’ll read Jonathan Strange and Mr Norrel which I just bought. After those, I could move onto anything as those are my immediate interests.
Also I’ve read about 20-30 books this year, I’ve finished most games I’ve bought this year too (bear Alan wake 2 and Spiderman 2 literally back to back) and I don’t actually watch a lot of movies or shows apart from the odd blockbuster or popular show that’s streaming. The anime I only really watch is one piece and I started on that only about 5 years ago and that was a lot to get through. Im onto episodes from summer last year so not a huge amount compared to where I started at.
If my problem was procrastination then your advice which I’ve heard a dozen times would be helpful.
