My biggest procrastination issue was getting ready and leaving the house in the AM for work.

I eventually solved this by waking up two hours early. I realized I just liked puttering around the house, having a second cup of coffee, while watching the news.

One night I was feeling restless so I simply got up early and started my day. I had two cups of coffee, read the newspaper, got into the car before rush hour and got to see the sunrise.

Obviously it doesn’t work for most scenarios.

Now that I’m retired here’s some funny insights. I used to be able to kill hours while I was working, just window shopping in the dollar stores or playing games. It’s easy when you are killing someone else’s time.

But now that I’m retired all those little things aren’t as fun when I’m just wasting MY time.
