How I Beat Procrastination
I was a professional procrastinator. Not the cute kind who waits until the last minute and still pulls it off. The destructive kind. The kind who watched opportunities slip away because I couldn't make myself start. The kind who felt shame every single day for all the things I wasn't doing.

How I Sleep Peacefully Now
Three in the morning used to be my breaking point. That's when I'd wake up, heart pounding, mind racing, staring at the ceiling while the world slept peacefully around me.
