Human beings are not very good at thinking about the future. We tend to under-value future benefits and over-value present benefits, and we also tend to give our future selves too much to do.
Time management is hard! First, we often focus on "urgent" things at the expense of what really matters. Second, we usually don't control how we spend all our time.
You have to be prepared to ADAPT your goal plan, and you need to break your big, long-term goals into small, short-term goals.
Being realistic about your future will help you avoid procrastinating, because you'll understand more clearly the value of what you do now.
