why is it so?

• Why do I find it so difficult to keep the kitchen bench clear?
• Why do I invest vast sums of money into equipment/supplies etc., only to lose interest in a matter of weeks or months?
• Why do I need a looming deadline to motivate me, when pacing myself would be so much less stressful?
• Why don't I seem to have much 'stickability'?
• Why do I always underestimate the time required to complete pretty much anything?
• Why do I have such difficulty saying 'No'?
• Why, when the 'how' is clear, do I not just take the steps necessary to fix things?
• Why am I such a procrastinator?
