Happy Thursday all! Does anyone else struggle with impulsivity?

Just curious who else out in cyberland struggles with this?
I often do things without thinking and the payoff is usually negative-being denied something usually or having something postponed.

Yes, I usually want what I want when I want it :-) so buy it and then don't particularly want it anymore. I start projects and buy "set-ups" for projects and then have all this "stuff" and no room for it. I buy people presents then don't like what I've bought. I'm pretty good with not "doing" much impulsively as anxiety talks me out of it pretty easily.
