And second who work hard to achieve them. the only difference between successful person and unsuccessful is action. Both have dreams, plans, but one act on their plans and take massive actions. While other just delay actions and as result they lost their dreams. They have habit of procrastination .
In this video I am going to share you why we procrastinate things, how to identify and over come it.
So what is procrastination. Procrastination is name of avoid or delay things which need to be done.
Remember Procrastination is habit. It is not a personality flaw. With efforts we can overcome ones.
There is common saying 50 percent solution of any problem is finding a reason why this happen.
So its very important to find the reasons why we procrastinate.
There are several disadvantage of procrastination. When we delay things. Tasks pill up and results in stress. When some one works on their dream. And we procrastinate our actions to achieve our dreams and later we give up. that results in guilt and anxiety. I saw many people were saying something “I wish I started that time”.
Good news is that next time is now. You need just commitment and have to take actions achieve all dreams.
Basic reasons procrastination is resistance for change. Or Resistance in taking action. Action requires a lot of efforts, discipline and hard work. Some times we procrastinate our dreams due to results are not coming.
For example for weight loss, I decided to do exercise daily. After one week when results were not coming. I started to delay the exercise. My mind starts to give me following reasons to delay Tomorrow I will do, In the evening I will do. And as results that evening or tomorrow never comes.
One of best way to identify reasons is to make a list of task we delay. There is possible we have different reasons for procrastinate things or possible similar pattern appears for similar or different tasks.
If we look closely, there are many things we did not procrastinate. We started working on these things and finish them. for Identify why we procrastinate, we have to built two list of tasks or things.
In one list we to mention mention all task. which we did not delay. And second list is of task which we procrastinate regard less of reason.
Now you have list of task you delayed. You can explore each task one by one and note down. Why you delay these tasks. Pattern of reasons starts to appear.
For example. Task is tough or we did not have skill to finish the task. We are not confident enough or possible we want too much perfection.
Solution to procrastination is massive actions. Start taking small steps. force ourselves to built momentum. When momentum built things started to finish.
Use 10 minute rule. We have to force ourselves to just focus on task only 10 minute. When 10 minute over, Just force for 10 minute more. And things start to happens. Most of time when we are doing things first time only start is tough and when this sense of resistance overcome we starts working.
