Understanding the Links Between Procrastination and Hoarding

It's important not to oversimplify hoarding, recognizing that some forms may require professional treatment. The speaker emphasizes the importance of eliminating the option to procrastinate or hoard by setting non-negotiable commitments. Additionally, the speaker shares a tool of meditating with soft music to let go of worries and angst, making it easier to focus and stay on tasks. Taking the first step towards a task is often the most difficult, but once initiated, it can lead to a feeling of abundance and accomplishment.
