I'm currently experimenting giving up on trying to get your shit together, it's quite a good life but it's still really hard not to make choices that have undesirable effects. Especially if those choices have desirable effects in the short term. Speaking about short term gratification, i should really put away my phone and go to sleep.

Some amount of get your shit together is hustle culture grindset that you need to be productive 24/7 and can be safely discarded. Some amount of it is within your control to change and some amount of it is due to a neurodevelopmental disorder and you just have to accept and/or find workarounds for.

Look into Taoism so you can convince yourself your maladaptions and procrastination are the third way, thus your existence is "together"

It don't work but it's fun
