Can NLP Fix Procrastination?

Partially and practically: procrastination is usually a state-and-framing problem (the task coded as heavy, distant, threatening) and NLP works precisely on coding and states.

The toolkit that moves it: chaining anchors from dread through curiosity into engagement, reframing the task from outcome-anxiety to process-focus, shrinking the first step until starting is trivially easy, and future-pacing the completed feeling. What does not work: motivation incantations without state change.
