Great Ways to Counter Procrastination
Although most of us like to think of ourselves as strong and decisive people, there are times when procrastination rears its ugly head and there is nothing we can do about it. I have a few tips for dealing with those times.
Like any character flaw that you want to rectify, you must first admit that you are a procrastinator. Denying it and refusing to acknowledge the problem exists is a form of procrastination in itself.
Now you must sit down and either write down or mentally note what you have missed out on due to your habit of procrastinating. There are so many things this covers that you may end up pretty ashamed of yourself.
Don’t get all melancholy and start bemoaning what you’ve missed out on, that’s gone now. What matters is how you will stop yourself from doing it in the future.
Right okay, here’s the big one, you are stopping procrastinating NOW. You started it so only you can stop it. When you put things off, they build up in your head until they reach mammoth proportions when in reality they are anything but. Just get it over with and see how good you feel.
Think about all the things that you should have done by now but your procrastination has stopped you. There were probably only one or two to start with and now you are swamped. It doesn’t matter which you do first, just get them done now.
Procrastination can arise from a lack of self confidence in doing things that we don’t think we are capable of. Now that you have managed to take the step and have finished those tasks, you should feel great. They weren’t as bad as you thought and you completed them no problem when you put your mind to it.
If you have been sensible and followed the steps in this article, congratulations, you should be feeling pretty pleased with yourself! You have gotten those tasks down and are still here to tell the tale. Seriously though, from now on you must deal with everything immediately and if you start putting things off again, go through the steps again.
