How do I stop procrastinating?

Often times I doze off or wonder elsewhere into the Internet because I find myself in a corner surrounded by complicated codes, getting my self-esteem hurt in the process.

I believe this is one of the best articles about procrastination. It's big, but I think it's worth to read it, there is an interesting view of the problem, and I hope it will be useful: https://waitbutwhy.com/2013/10/why-procrastinators-procrastinate.html

The only reason you'll procrastinate is very you're not interested in coding.dont force yourself to try to code,i only code personally when I'm in the mood

If you like reading, you can pick up “Still Procrastinating?” By Joseph R. Ferrari. When I read through it, I was seeking a solve-all answer, but rather I found a great understanding of why we procrastinate. The book changed my mentality and I found myself eliminating about 80% of my procrastinating habits. The book helped me catch bad habits that led me to procrastinate and eventually it changed my routine. Hope this helps :)

NezhnyjVampir I remember seeing Ted on part 1 but never really got satisfied because it didn't say about the part 2. Really appreciate you sharing this here!
