Procrastination and how to Overcome it!

---

---

You have been procrastinating lately, haven't you? 'Well, don't worry, there are
solutions. 'Procrastinating 'is something 'that a 'lot of people do. Yes, it is bad,
yes it can hold you back from reaching your full potential, and yes it may even
destroy your life. 'But, 'don't 'focus on the negative. 'Solutions 'on the issue of
procrastination do exist. 'But some 'of them are counter-intuitive 'and 'hard to
find on your own so keep reading!''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''

SOLUTION #1 - WRITE DOWN A MUST-DO LIST

Writing down a 'Must-Do 'list 'can 'help 'you, 'on 'the 'one 'hand, 'realize 'what
tasks you have to do and 'on the 'other hand serve as a reminder, so you don't
forget about them. 'Write 'your Must-Do list on a piece of paper and stick it on
the wall. 'Notebooks and 'text 'files don't 'work 'because 'once you 'close them,
they can't keep 'reminding 'you' what you have to do. 'A 'piece of paper with a
detailed 'Must-Do 'list 'stuck 'on 'the 'wall 'will 'do 'the trick. ''Create a new list
every day so that you 'can 'keep 'up ''with 'your goals. ''If you 'fail 'to' prepare,
prepare to fail. '''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''

SOLUTION #2 - DO THE MOST IMPORTANT THINGS FIRST

You will have to do the most important things first, 'no matter if they are hard
or not. 'Starting 'your day 'with 'the 'most ''important tasks is great because it
boosts your confidence 'and 'energy and 'that makes 'you 'finish 'all 'the 'other
work way 'more 'quickly. 'And 'after all, learning how to 'perform the necessary
tasks 'is 'what 'will 'bring 'you 'the better 'results. 'Doing 'important' things 'is
what makes a man important.'''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''

SOLUTION #3 - DON'T DO UNIMPORTANT THINGS

Performing 'dull, '''unimportant 'tasks ''lowers '''excitement, '''confidence, 'and
energy. 'And 'that 'in 'turn, makes people numb, lazy and unwilling to perform
what 'is 'of importance. 'But, 'if 'somehow 'you 'are obligated to do such tasks,
try to 'outsource 'them. 'You don't ''want 'to ''be ''the ''one ''doing, ''worthless,
unimportant 'tasks. 'You 'want 'to' be' the 'one 'doing ''the ''important ''things
because as 'we 'said' before: 'doing' important' things, 'is 'what 'makes 'a man
important.'''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''

SOLUTION #4 - STAY HEALTHY

Physical health is crucial. 'An active 'approach 'to daily 'tasks 'requires a 'good
level of physical health. 'If you' neglect physical health, performing 'numerous
tasks daily for months and 'months will feel 'impossible. 'Set 'your priorities in
your Must-Do' list 'correctly 'and 'I 'am sure you will find time to work on your
physical health. 'Killing your time 'with 'internet entertainment is relaxing but
at 'the 'same 'time 'mentally 'tiring. ''On ''the ''other 'hand, 'working 'on 'your
physical 'health' is 'relaxing 'and 'boosts your 'energy too. So when working on
your Must-Do list, set your priorities correctly.'''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''

SOLUTION #5 - TAKE BREAKS

Taking breaks is essential 'to refresh your 'mental energy.' Your 'breaks 'should
be 'peaceful and' not 'involved in gossip and internet' entertainment. During a
quiet pause, you 'get to 'calm down 'and 'remind 'yourself 'what 'you 'consider
important and 'what not. 'A pause, 'although ''it's related with inactiveness, is
not' 'inactiveness. ''In 'fact, 'the 'break 'is 'an ''essential 'part 'of 'a 'productive
lifestyle. 'People 'that 'work without breaks, 'often lose their focus and end 'up
wasting their 'time with 'worthless tasks. 'Take 'several 'breaks during the 'day
to refocus on your goal. It will save you 'a lot of time and make you reach 'any
goal more quickly.''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''

This is a great thread, well organized and easy to read.

Off topic; can you write more than 8000 words as an upgraded member? I wrote a free guide on how to make money and I went over. I may need to upgrade so I can finish it.

The limit is 24k characters, but some people overcome it by using several posts in a row.

You have to work on that. Maybe I should expand the guide? If you have any feedback please let me know.

Getting to know why you procrastinate is also effective. Learn about 'Instant Gratification Monkey' and 'Mel Robbins' 5 second rule'. It will help.
