For me, the longer i have to do a task, and the more optional it appears to be, the less likely it is i will do it. This is moreso for big projects rather than day to day tasks. So maybe if you've been eg saying 'i want to live in china for 3 months' and keep putting it off year after year, with lots of research but no action, the best thing to do can be to book a flight there say 4 weeks away and just get on with it! The more we plan and give vague future deadlines the harder it can be to take action One thing i’ve found that can help with procrastination is to set yourself a very tight deadline, get someone to hold you accountable to it, and dive in.
