Procrastination is something that has come up a lot with my coaching clients recently, so I thought we should dive into that here. There are many reasons we procrastinate. Sometimes procrastination is wrapped up in our self-doubt. Sometimes it’s wrapped up in perfectionism. Sometimes we’re scared of discomfort. Sometimes we’re paralyzed by anxiety. In this episode, I’ll walk you through 6 common reasons we procrastinate (I think you’ll find a few of these very enlightening) and 8 steps you can take to procrastinate less. We’ll talk about everything from simple habits like setting timers to get stuff done, to deeper ideas around assessing your mental health when find yourself in procrastination habits that you cannot seem to pull yourself out of.
