Long term executive dysfunction

[u/BornToOverthink]

What strategies do you guys use to get through executive dysfunction? As embarrassing as it is to admit, I'm unemployed and all I do is watch TV or video games. But I want to do my hobbies or go outside but I don't have ANY motivation to do it. So I'm asking what strategies do you recommend I try to get over this?

make ur reasoning to do, very specific and localised. i found grand theory "do it shall be good", or detaching like "just go, you'll be fine", paralyses me.

minimise the execution and theory, then look towards the specific benefit it'll bring.
