Procrastination Ping Pong: The Ultimate Burnout Bane

Warning: This exercise is not for the faint of heart. It's a game of ping-pong, but instead of paddles and balls, you get to play with the guilt and anxiety of unfinished tasks.

Objective: Ping a ball of procrastination back and forth with yourself, using the force of your own burnout.

Rules: Each player must ping the ball with a different excuse for why the task can't be started.

  1. Player 1: "I'm waiting for the perfect tool."
  2. Player 2: "I'm waiting for the perfect moment."
  3. Player 3: "I'm waiting for the perfect understanding."
  4. ...
  5. You: "I'm waiting for the ball to drop."
