On self bans because you're not studying/spending time with your girl/working:
It doesn't help.
Everyone I ban like this procrastinates in a different way and ends up creating aliases.
I cannot ban you to help you focus.
Read things like this instead:

And try things like this:

As much as it's harsh my response to people nowadays is: You have to take responsibility for not getting things done and stop blaming externalities.
Because I could ban you, but until you take responsibility about your procrastination then you'll evade the ban anyway or procrastinate in a different way. It's all futile until you change, at which point I don't need to ban you.
Either way... me banning you achieves nothing.
Good luck.

I am no longer banning people who don't have the discipline to focus. It's your problem, not mine.
