I commented elsewhere about ADHD. So here is a story about a myself I won't name. O_o
My Thursday night girlfriend wanted me to clean up an old MacBook. Just a few steps, unlinking accounts tied to hardware, figuring out how to remove a firmware key some other me must have set, a clean install, updates, etc.
It took me 6 months, because several steps or restarts took more than single digit seconds ... and my work was a siren.
After many aborted attempts, I put it on my desk next to my keyboard. It only took 30 minutes, spread across 6 hours. Victory!
If someone chained my hands to the laptop it would have gone faster, but the suffering incurred by the forced observation of blank screens, status bars and busy balls would have been unimaginable.
