Another barrier that I have is that I procrastinate a lot. This is an issue that I have actually been improving in. What I have been doing to make sure I don't procrastinate anymore is tricking myself. I tell myself that I am only gonna do half the assignment but then I usually get into a state of flow and finish it before I even realize that I’ve spent a lot of time working on it. The worst barrier I have is that I reward myself too much for not doing good. This is also something that I have been trying to improve on.
