> guilt-deflecting advice-meme

At the risk of sounding like a trite lifehack peddler, in my experience, finding ways to remove the feeling of guilt is a powerful technique for combatting procrastination and burnout driven by anxiety.

But beyond that, I agree.




A good point - I hear that writing a blogpost on your new stratagem for the week is a good way to achieve that end. You can even make a job out of it!


If you have issues coming up with a strategem, just take two random words from the dictionary and add 'technique' to the end and riff off of that!

The Franchise Hospitality Technique. The Dirty Diplomat technique. The Proper Element Technique. The Bee Trustee Technique. The Linger Expansion Technique. The Path Feast Technique. The Brink Intelligence Technique. The Deficit Omission Technique.

Gotta admit, I'm a little tempted to make a humor productivity parody blog using this technique after seeing a few that came up.


To save time, feed these strategem names to GPT-3 as prompts, and let it write you the contents of your blog articles!
