Back when I was trying to quit cigarettes I had many different types of motivation to get me to stick with not smoking. Money, health, and dating were all reasons for me to quit, and they didn't work until I found a way of thinking about it that just clicked for me – I didn't want to be 'that guy', that low status loser who couldn't stop smoking, someone that just didn't have it in him to quit. So I quit.

I really liked this post because much like when I was trying to quit cigarettes, it's giving me a different way of thinking about my procrastination that might really click with me. This is a new insight; I want to get things done now and faster, so that I can make room for being fucking awesome!
