Learn how to do it yourself before you let AI do it for you. If you don't, you will not understand why it was done that way, why it got results, or why it didn't. You will become more and more dependent on a tool rather than your own creative ability.

You're not struggling with productivity. You're struggling with not having a project worth being productive for. If you were working on the right thing, you wouldn't be able to stop thinking, working, obsessing.
Don’t hustle wood for the witch burner.

How to master any skill fast: - Stop studying - Outline a project - Start building it - Hit a roadblock - Research how to overcome it - Repeat until completed Most people get trapped in tutorial hell and have nothing to show for years of "learning."

When you're lacking motivation, remind yourself: discipline now, freedom later. The labor will pass, and the rewards will last.

Finding your way in life is like unlocking the combination of a safe. You have to go forwards and backwards. Life is not a direct march from A to B. The twists and turns are progress, not regression. What feels like a setback in the moment is later revealed to have been part of the path all along. Each move was necessary to get to your end goal.

You don't need experience to start because you only gain experience by starting.

I have been really into the song Imaginary Enemies. It is floating around my head this morning after listening to it before bed. I put it in my Gym Cardio Mix.
