Re:Ask HN: Can't concentrate to focus, until it's last minut... by bkovacev on Sunday April 17, 2016 @02:16PM (#11515547)
You have described me perfectly. However, I have an adrenaline rush when I have to do things that are close to the deadline.

What do you think would be a solution to this - since you did observe it from a side and how does this behavior differ from your own behavior?

My advice is not to look at the whole but to look at pieces that you can do, make public commitments to doing them and the just do it, don't care at first if it is good or even right, just do it. Then review it (if possible review it publicly with someone you respect and trust) and then adapt it and continue.

You have to commit to starting it and being clear about what else you have on at the time and where this sits it the priority. Classic Scrum, but it works for me (mostly...)
