I'm struggling with this as well. It's even putting a strain on my relationship with the gf.
For example, I tell her no, I can't go out this weekend. There's a ton of shit to be done (and there really is) but I end up not doing any of them. When I tell her about it, she brings me back to reality and gives me good advice. But I can tell there's only so much a person will put up with.
Then I get excited about what I need to do to get there. I lookup productivity methods (currently trying the pomodoro technique) and do some case study readings about successful people. Exciting stuff. The world is all mine.
Then I sleep, wake up the next morning and I'm totally blanked out. The motivation is lost. The fire is gone. nothing gets done again.
I have sort of figured out why though, but I haven't done anything about it yet. I think it's my work environment. I hate being where I work and it makes me day-dream of all the other possibility of doing something different. But the dream is never realized until I do something about it. and thats the state I am at right now, figuring out what to do about it and where to start from.
My biggest issue is that I'm fully aware of my options and potential, but i'm still not concerned enough to make a change. :S
