jokes aside my problem is lack of focus and discipline, and just under-estimating the amount of required work, starting too late and moving too slowly. this is in all things, not just this move.

I have a similar problem, just probably less intense than in your case, but it gets triggered by distraction in particular. SWEs I know are getting laid off, so I can't afford to rest on my laurels anymore though. When deadlines approach, I have to meet them. That's why I'm taking an extended break from X. It's just too distracting with the oceanic tide of content there. I will still check Nostr here and there.
That's always my issue with moving as well. Too many moving parts, every mistake directly affects you, you need to thin down your stuff, get rid of some attachments, sort between low to frequent use, then sort again based on must haves. You’ll most likely still miss something or screw a dependency up so just hope it won’t be something that cascades down heavily. I’ll sleep much better after my last formal visit to my old place is done this weekend. Even after the physical move there’s so many tasks pending.
