One step at a time, bud. You don't become superman overnight and your bad habits have had years to hardwire themselves into your life. Solving one thing at a time puts the chaos of your current existence into at least some kind of strategy. Jerk off but not to porn. Schedule a finite amount of time to watching Youtube. If you aren't content with your graduate program, stop wasting time with the devil you know.

I say this as someone equally lazy who loves to get stoned and watch completely mindless bullshit for hours at a time. I am cutting back on my vices a day at a time knowing that I can't become perfect all at once. However, I've taken the steps needed like cleaning up my resume and actually applying to jobs that I know will give me a greater purpose and this motivates me to be better. It is all self-feeding, my man. Bad behavior begets bad behavior. We are in a world where self-interested hedonism is socially normalized and arguably promoted. Rise above. Improve.
