Akrasia

Akrasia (ancient Greek: ἀκρασία) could be called 'the goddess of distraction' or 'the thief of time'.

"This made her think of akrasia, weakness of the will, by which we do that which we really want to do in the full knowledge that we should be doing something else..." (from Alexander McCall Smith: Friends, Lovers, Chocolate)
