I don't know why, but I somehow think that running helped me. I don't even remember why I started running, but I remember I didn't expect to be able to make an habit out of it.
It turns out I made an habit out of it, and helped me make others. I think it is because running is such an automatic thing. You put one foot ahead, then the other, until you get home.
I don't think I 100% stopped procrastinating, but now I almost never think about it. No thinking, no reasoning, no excuses, no strategies, no prioritization, no schedulers, no productivity apps, no deals with myself.
No search for motivation in the moment where I need it.
Just show up. With or without motivation, with or without optimal circumstances.
Show up over and over again, without thinking.
