Question: How do I overcome my longterm procrastination mindset?
Answer: You obviously need to find extra motivation and a tool that can pull you out of comfort/procrastination zone.
And you find it in a closed, purposeful, mutually supportive, mutually complementing environment where each member is mutually committed to the same goal and to assist one another to reach that goal.
In such an environment even the seemingly negative attributes of envy, jealousy, yearning for respect become positive, purposeful qualities, elevating each person above themselves.
