I wonder how closely this relates to the need gap "Getting things done at individual level"*. It seems to me that both are indicating the individuals are feeling an urge to spend time on things that they later consider to have been a suboptimal use of time.
It could be interesting to try ActivityRecommender: https://github.com/mathjeff/ActivityRecommender/blob/master/README.md
ActivityRecommender reminds the user (via suggestions, feedback, graphs, analyses, and more) about the things that the user tends to say are valuable, essentially giving the user a stronger voice in deciding what to do next.
