Old man trying his hand at this Indie Hacking malarkey while holding down a full time job. I worship at the altars of Drum & Bass and pretentious coffee production. He/Him.
That joy being, of course, the chance to sell it at all after 7 days of wasting my time and that of 22 other bidders because someone wanted to test the eBay “buyer cancellation service” 10 seconds after their sniping bid won the auction FFS

That moment of joy when Backmarket offers slightly less than Apple for your old iPhone 13 because eBay phone purchasers are time wasting scumbags

Not very many mountains near me, so here’s a Hill instead (climbed it yesterday).

I’ve also managed structured procrastination - where the thing that I want to do is always open on my laptop so I’m ready to dive in at a moments notice, often when I should be doing something else instead.

That, and a massive todo list of tiny, tiny things to do - so you don’t have to think.

I’ve had *some* success with Pomodoro for everything I’m putting off. 25 minute chunks, with the specific agreement that you stop when the timer is up. Sometimes you’ll get in the groove, sometimes you won’t. That’s ok, you’ve achieved something anyway.
