This Q&A podcast episode addresses listener Carlos's question on overcoming procrastination. The host, Carl Pauline, explains that effective daily planning is crucial to reduce procrastination by clarifying tasks and prioritizing "non-negotiable" items. He suggests a three-step planning process: reviewing appointments, selecting actionable tasks, and prioritizing them.

The podcast also notes that controlled procrastination can be beneficial for idea exploration, suggesting keeping some time free for this purpose.
