Your childhood can be key. Your username makes me think you like to play with mind bending drugs that directly interfere with prefrontal cortical motivation.


Awesome thanks for sharing. I think for myself, it might be childhood since I was young I hated being forced to study and do work. Funnily enough I do all my day job while toasted cause its super fun, coding while sober seems so boring. I am trying to train myself to be more conscientious, I don't know why I did not pick it up as a child. My parents tried a lot with tutoring and studying.


Many in the same boat as you - its probably why you ended up a programmer as well, as conscienciousness has less impact the more complex the job.
