Well... the way I think about it is this:
I have an image of myself in ten years time. What I will look like, where I will be and what I will be doing.
That image is the destination in my mind, and is so firm that I can see it whenever I close my eyes. Then, with regard to obsessing about my status now... I turn everything into a roadmap of association, all geared to get to the destination.
So, with regard to what you have to do, but can't get round to, Arch... think of how it will benefit you in terms of security and what it will achieve for you, in any area, in order for you to progress to your goal of the
real you, however long that may take to occur. Try to visualise where you want to be in life a few years from now based on what you know about who you are... and hold that image as your quest, what everything you do now will be striving for. Then, with anything you have to do, think something like this, for example:
"If I do this now, it will lead to better prospects, more money to save, more security, and will make my transition easier because I won't have to worry so much about saving for any procedures I need to undergo. Therefore, it's beneficial in order to achieve my vision. So I have to do it to become myself."
Doing everything that way makes it easier to focus on the task at hand because it's linked to the obsession, no matter how tenuously, and is seen in my mind as a necessity in order to reach the ultimate goal of my future vision. Not something that I can afford to procrastinate about.
