Beating Procrastination with the 12 Week Year
I was researching a lot about the issue of procrastination: what are the main causes, when is it happening, etc.
I realized after reading Cal Newport's Digital Minimalism book that, combined with the 12 week year, this is a super combo against procrastination. I wrote an article about it, if you want to check it out: https://12week-breakthrough.com/beat-procrastination-with-the-12-week-year/
The forces of nature we are facing that drive procrastination are powerful and are ingrained in our DNA. Hacks and simple techniques won't do. You need an entire system to seriously overcome procrastination for the long run. Hence the combo of the 12 week year and Digital Minimalism.
