the best methods have always been

>slave systems
>buddy systems
>reward systems

thats it really. if you don't have intrinsic motivation its those three that will do it for you.

>slave system

this is where you get someone, preferrably someone you live with, to be your keeper. they're in charge. they see you playing video games or dicking around? nope, not anymore. its their job to keep you on track.

>buddy system

buddy system means you and a friend in the same boat co-habitate while doing your work so that you can push ecah other to do this. downside is if you're both procrastinators you might end up convincing each other to procrastinate.

>reward system

this one is often better paired with slave or buddy system as if you have no motivation, and the reward is given bt your self, then you would just take the reward without working.

me with homework id get a snack. and break that snack up into as many pieces as there were math problems, and everytime I finished one I'd take a bite.

im pretty well motivated, bnut there are some jobs i dont like to do. one of my jobs is reading books and then revising them. but they're redundant self help books so i get frustrated fast. so what I do is allow myslef to go on /adv/ after 5 pages of reading.

after 5 pages i go through and answer only question on the first page of /adv/, then i read five more, repsond to any old threads that got more posts, or respond to new threads, then read 5 more, and so on and so forth.

Buddy system would be even worse because all of my colleagues are lazy as hell, the problem is the time i waste on sites like youtube and even if i block them through plugins i always find another way to drift off, are there any supplements or some med stuff which improve concentration/attention span which i could get over the counter (in yurop) ?

some vitamins like fish oil would supposedly do the trick, but really it comes down to you.

motivation is a bullshit concept. you dont need to want to do something in order to do it. you just need to do it.

Slav system
Just do the whole thing whilst squatting

Might actually look into getting some caps, this shit is why my performance got worse over the last year, fcking internet is too much for my zombie brain

it wont fix you anon.

It's mostly a just do it kind of thing. Cutting down on some habits helps, though. For example, restricting your internet hours. It's much harder to procrastinate if you can't browse the net.
After a while you get used to it and find other ways to procrastinate so it's an active process.
