Great article. I also do procrastinate a lot and the main time thief is my smartphone. Checking news, social media, watching YouTube, installing new apps every day. The list goes on.
I deleted Apps that aren't worth any time - like 9gag for instance. And I installed an app called App Usage which prompts me when I use too much phone.
I still need to try splitting my work in smaller tasks. I heard about this method a lot.
Thanks!
Splitting work in small tasks is definitely a challenge. It didn't help me much when I was trying to break the tasks before I started to work, but when I started to use post-its as reminders "on the fly", it worked pretty well.
