"Guess what? Our future self is pretty unreliable, too. He/she doesn’t think that the task in hand sounds like much fun, either, and he/she is just as likely to put it off as you are.
Actually, your future self is even more likely to put it off than you are because you’ve already established a pattern that putting off that important thing is okay.
If you want to actually succeed in life, stop relying on your future self to take care of things. Now.

— From this blog post. (A friend in college introduced me to the concept of “being nice to your future self.” I think I have an unhealthy relationship with my future self.)
