yep. But the thing is, realize that you can't trick yourself. you need to be allowing yourself to actually only do that. So, instead, think of it like this: its fairly easy to collect my various tax docs, and if I can't find a specific thing, then I have something specific to investigate instead of a nebulous fear.
I think a lot of procrastination is breaking down a large, nebulous task into a loop of investigate and then resolve until the task is complete, but our brains naturally tell us to avoid this kind of thing, its riskier to go after the food that you really don't know how to acquire and takes a lot of investigation than the food that you've been able to acquire easily in the past
