My Struggle With Focus

I have a short attention span...

It's something that has been bothering me a lot lately. I wanna do stuff. Or at least I imagine myself to be doing stuff. I make plans, I dedicate the time slots, I set reminders... But the truth is, I just use planning-as-procrastination and never actually start doing anything. struggles-with-systems even though I know it's wrong.

• I get bored easily
• I start indulging in escapism by always imaging and planning rather than doing the work
• The work doesn't feel rewarding enough to keep me engaged

What I suspect? I think my brain is always chasing something fun and enjoyable and starts throwing tantrums when it doesn't get it (such a baby).

At first I used to think it's just lack of discipline.. while that is true, it's not the root of the problem. What seems to be happening is that my brain got wired in some weird way and now it keeps craving fun and relaxation.

Some ideas I would try:

• To break down the tasks into small segments so I can feel the accomplishment of finishing something
