I don't know what this is, when I visit it I get an empty UI with no indicators as to what I'm supposed to be doing.. no action buttons, nada. Going to assume hn hugged it to death.

Probably relevant: FIREBASE WARNING: Specified Firebase has reached its Peak Connections limit. If you are the Firebase owner, consider upgrading. ( https://blazing-fire-4313.firebaseio.com )

Correct, thanks!

Let me know if you have any feedback on how to improve it, or know of any better resources than the ones suggested.

How to improve it? Make it into one big HTML page so I can save it and read it without having to click like crazy! :-)

haha, nice point. It's designed so that other people can challenge the structure and the resources in it. So when you come back to it it will always be better.

Not really impressed. Just a collection of other resources & articles about the topic.

You are right, at a first glance it's just a list of resources. It's designed to break down 'how to minimize procrastination' into a subset of jobs, and then matching them with the best resources to solve them. Users can challenge the subset of jobs, and resources to achieve them. This way it will become easier to tackle procrastination over time.
