Thanks for your comment, I plan to chew a bit on it while commuting.

Reminds me of that cartoon about procrastination https://waitbutwhy.com/2013/10/why-procrastinators-procrasti... (the mind has a captain and a monkey).



"3) The Have-To-Dos may happen, but not the Want-To-Dos. Even if the procrastinator is in the type of career where the Panic Monster is regularly present and he’s able to be fulfilled at work, the other things in life that are important to him—getting in shape, cooking elaborate meals, learning to play the guitar, writing a book, reading, or even making a bold career switch—never happen because the Panic Monster doesn’t usually get involved with those things. Undertakings like those expand our experiences, make our lives richer, and bring us a lot of happiness—and for most procrastinators, they get left in the dust."

This is too real
