See, this is where shit like Amdroid comes in handy. Among the challenge (dismiss your alarm) options, they have NFC and QR/barcode as options. So you can force yourself to not be lazy by creating a tag, barcode or QR code that lives next to the thing you need to do by having to scan your verification to be able to shut your phone up.

I don't really have much advice on making you accountable to yourself, but the little things like this help force you to adult and not fuck up as much. Only thing that worked for me was to give myself a ton of anxiety so that overcoming my laziness/forgetfulness to prevent me from feeling the crippling anxiety from not getting shit done. 2/10, don't recommend.
