Are You A Big Procrastinator?
from RiseUp - Live Joy Your Way · host Kamini Wood
Are you experiencing procrastination? Do you seem to just keep putting off your tasks so that you can focus on something that’s not as important? To be clear, there is a difference between procrastination and laziness. Laziness involves apathy and us choosing not to act whereas procrastination is the replacement of activities we don’t want to be doing. For example, sometimes we procrastinate because it just feels too overwhelming to do at the time, or that we are perfectionists. Sometimes we procrastinate because of fear. We’re afraid to fail. This is completely okay because fear of failure is something a lot of us go through every now and again! If you’re dealing with a task that has so many pieces involved, break it down, write it out, and pick one thing you can take care of right now. What part of the task is stopping you from taking action? Is it because you can’t seem to make it ‘perfect’ enough? Is it because it’s just too much to do? If you’re someone who delays the tasks to the last minute, this might mean that you have a hard time getting started on a task. If that’s the case, then recognize your inner voice is trying to stop you in your tracks, and try to go for the smallest win possible to just get started. Continue Your Growth Journey: Kaminiwood.com
