#2This looks great! People interested in generally cutting out distractions that lead to procrastination should also check out “indistractable” by Nir Eyal. I found it both entertaining and useful for cutting down on unwanted distractions (like too much HN browsing)

Yep, it's a good book. We've integrated the main parts of it in the course—like the preview lesson about internal triggers leading us to seek out distractions. That distinction is great.

C'mon! Every time.
Give it a watch today, that's why the videos are 5 min long (+ you can 2x speed them up).

#6Does watching an anti-procrastination video course count as procrastination?
But in all seriousness, great work!

I'd say it depends on whether you're doing it instead of something productive, or in your free time/leisure.
And thanks! It's just the beginning, more updates coming - both on the content side and the interactive side.

Well, hopefully not pretending!
But yeah, I'm aware of the potential paradox. As far as procrastination goes, a 5 min (finite) video that gives you some practical tips is better than any infinite scrolling platform.
