Reframe Procrastination as a Signal, Not a Character Flaw

You have been avoiding the thing for three days. This is not a personality assessment. This reads the avoidance as information: what is missing, what is unclear, what is too big, and what the smallest possible first move is. One sentence about the task. That is all it needs.

You are procrastinating on something. Describe the task in one sentence: [write the task here].

Reframe the procrastination as information rather than a moral failure. Identify: (1) what the task might be signalling is missing, unclear, or too large; (2) one specific change to the task that would make it easier to start; (3) the smallest possible first action, completable in under five minutes.
