I’ve read and studied about procrastination, motivation, blah blah blah for 10+ years now, definitely read over 1m words about it, definitely written over 100k words about it
Been trying to figure out my most personal take/frame on it all, trying to find my personal tuning fork

Some of my riffs
- mvp model of personal dev
- slingshot theory
- share info surplus with others
- meaning of life is friends / find the others
- school isolates
- don’t fill buckets, light fires
- be prolific, in public
- turn up the voltage
- vectors
- infinite games

I think this is close to my core frame, (still need to think on it):
I feel like most productivity thinking begins with the atomized self as the core unit
I reject this frame; I am fundamentally a social being
My personal productivity begins with relationships as the core unit

Being productive in isolation does not appeal to me; I can try to pretend it does and get a little bit of mileage out of it, but seeking more agency for myself is more of a “I would like to believe that I want that, it seems like a good thing” than “oh god I want that so much”
All the clues are right here. The strongest emotions I feel are in relation to others; themes of support and connection and sacrifice
