How to kill procrastination?

So I'm still procrastinating on following the instructions in Lichtman's book to see if it works.

After searching through many peer-reviewed studies on training and taming humans and non-human animals one thing always came up - temporary starvation.

In order to train and tame non-human animals to perform tricks they are often not allowed to eat food unless they perform a certain task or trick.

So why not use this same strategy on humans?

Dehydration is dangerous but temporary starvation is very safe for humans (except for pregnant women, babies, and children). The majority of people can go starving for at least 3 consecutive weeks without anything negative happening (not that I recommend it I recommend only 5 consecutive days max).

This got me thinking that we could recondition humans into any behavior with a simple rule enforced:

"Until I do X action I won't be allowed to eat any food from any location"

If you're dieting or trying to lose weight this would also be useful as you would be "killing two birds with one stone" as the saying goes.

Given that so many peer-reviewed studies show temporary starvation as very safe I'm not sure why this technique isn't used more often or mentioned much I'm going to start using it. 

An extraordinarily powerful method proven to be effective since eventually the hunger will get to you and you'll just perform the task to get food.

Many attempts the secret to success?

Basic probability shows that attempting to do nearly anything many times guarantees success. It's the same concept as the probability calculation used to determine the chance of tossing a coin and getting heads 5 times in a row (1/2^5). The chances of failing many times in a row decreases dramatically with more attempts. Chances of failing: 90% chance of failing - After 100 tries becomes nearly 0% or 0.002656139889% (0.90^100) 95% chance of failing - After 200 tries becomes nearly 0% or 0.003505266625% (0.95^100) 99.5% chance of failing - After 1000 tries becomes nearly 0% or 0.6653968579% (0.995^1000) 99.9% chance of failing - After 5000 tries becomes nearly 0% or 0.672111196% (0.999^5000) So this means trying nearly anything 5,000 times guarantees success!? So there's 365 days in a year, let's see how many times you would have to attempt to do something in order to achieve by the end of the year: 90% chance of failing - 1 time/day 95% chance of failing - 1 time...

I've finally figured out the 100% success rate manifestation method?

I've finally figured it out I think! Well not me someone else - Stuart A. Lichtman. Who's Stuart A. Lichtman? He's the MIT genius student who developed a model of unconscious decision making called Arintel that ran on a powerful supercomputer back in the 1970s.  He tested out his model on businesses in the 1970s and it gained 90%-99% accurate results. But politicians thought of abusing it so he decided to destroy the system and keep it a secret. He reasoned that the human brain is analogous to a parallel supercomputer millions of times more powerful than the most powerful supercomputers at the time and that the human brain could do what Arintel did but much better. He developed a system of training the brain to accomplish any task what he calls "Cybernetic Transposition" claiming a 100% success rate and tested it out more than 50,000 people with success (including working with some Fortune 500 companies and the US government). A summary of the three-step process:...
