There are no chains, you're pretending there are so as to absolve you of responsibility. You've run out of excuses so you pretend there is some mental block, some unsolvable puzzle keeping you welded to your couch. That way, there's forever something impassable in your way, and you don't need to deal with the anxiety of leaving your comfort zone.

There's no answer, no shortcut, no magic trick, nothing that will just bestow motivation, enthusiasm and discipline upon you, which is what I think you're looking for. There is no pill you can take that will make you comfortable with the uncomfortable. You need to force yourself. You give yourself to the count of 10 to do something, and then you do it. Start small, and work your way up. It's that simple. Just do it. Now.

"Magic is the first of humanity's attempts to force the heavens to be reasonable."
