Yeah I probably do have to treat myself like a child since I'm pretty much acting like one. No self-control or discipline, or just...very little of these.

I am distracted and tempted easily. even if I do sit in a no-distraction environment I tend to get distracted by my own thoughts or like my cell phone. I dont know if that is normal or not though.

I dont have a timer, but it probably wouldnt be a bad idea.
