Tools are secondary. If you have lots of things to track, they can organize you but in my experience, they can't really make you more productive.

Assuming you don't have a health issue (you should get that checked), perhaps you think you want to do all those things but you don't really want to.

While it's true that tools alone may not be sufficient to increase productivity, I believe that the right tools can still play a significant role in supporting productivity. In my personal experience, I have had some success using certain tools, but I have also encountered failures in the long term. I'm not sure why this has happened, but I think it may be due to a lack of consistency or something. Regarding your suggestion that I may not really want to do the things I need to do, I appreciate your concern, but I assure you that I have a genuine desire to accomplish these tasks and achieve my goals. However, there are times when I may feel stuck or unmotivated and I don't know how can I improve.
