Dealing with procrastination

from Build Your Salon with Phil Jackson · host Build Your Salon with Phil Jackson

I can help you in overcoming procrastination and getting more things done. Are you: 1. An expert at putting off and delaying things? 2. Brilliant at doing the fun stuff first?  But leaving no motivation and energy for the things you're supposed to do? 3. Running your life in a panic mode for a lot of the time? A big part of the business is getting the right stuff done. You CAN get the right stuff done without working right up to a deadline in a very stressful way.  And you know that feels so much better! Thing is, a lot of us are our own enemies. We're procrastinators!! We put things off and then end up with a huge rush of tasks when it comes to the deadline. These tips that I have are based on my very own experiences as a big procrastinator. I have worked really hard to make sure that I'm performing at a level of high-productivity.  Basically I have had to deal with my procrastination in a very effective way! 1. Break things down - there may be times that you feel overwhelmed.  When you have so much to do in your mind that it becomes impossible to see a way forward. You need to get to grip with the projects and planning.  In short, break things down into smaller chunks. But don't spend excess time on planning, it's mostly about implementation. 2. Reward ourselves - crossing tasks off a list can feel like a reward in itself.  Or even something as basic as making a cup of tea.  Whatever you use, make sure you deliver, or you'll have a hard time motivating yourself second time around. 3. Forgive yourself - show yourself some kindness. In short, don't be too hard on yourself!  Procrastination can be a product of low self-esteem - don't feed that beast! Finally, for more personalised help why not drop me an email: [email protected] - I'd love to hear from you!
