It’s a recurring theme
And one of the most delightful. Who hasn’t been told at some point, “if you put half as much effort into [task] as you did into [avoidance strategy] you’d have been fine”?

Finally internalizing how much nicer it is put in a little bit of effort in advance rather than stressful scrambling after procrastinating was literally life changing. I don’t think I even realized how much subconscious stress I was under during the procrastination. But my kids are just like “shut up dad”
