My issue with procrastination is that my reward circuits seem kind of broken. My dopamine system is not motivated much even by fairly extreme future positive rewards. It's almost entirely rewarded by removal or reduction of certain types of future negative outcomes. (Primarily, these are either social, or safety/security related in nature.)
I'm not sure how to self-structure a reward system around that without being kind of a psycho.
