Hey mopey. Im not free of it. I read a lot of stuff on motivation and procrastination. There is a new book out on procrastination recently reviewed in the nytimes. One main thing it said that i identified with is about learned helplessness.

Unfortunately i had that insight long ago in therapy. How do you unlearn learned helplessness??! You never hear about rats eager to go back onto the electrified floor or whatever! Or non- electrified floor. Once you convince them its wired, you dont unconvince them. I may be smarter than a rat, but dont we have the same lizard brain part? Idk.

If i ever get it resolved, pc will be the first to know!
