I have so many things I want to do but just can't. Play a video game, read a book, take dog for walk, build a gadget I bought parts for, finish writing a song, finish building a computer... But no, I just sit there stuck. How do I get unstuck?

one thing that can sometimes work for me is to just commit to 5 minutes. Set a timer and see what i can do in 5 minutes and if i want to stop i can.
