9 Helpful Tips to
Overcoming Procrastination
Nate Fortner
Guilty as charged! Over the past three years, I’ve come to
realize that one of my major downfalls is procrastination. Whether it’s going
to the grocery store or finishing a project for a client, I tend to find myself
busy doing things I don’t need to do in order to avoid doing the things I’m
actually supposed to be doing. Procrastination will destroy you if you don’t
conquer and destroy it first.
Why is it that we procrastinate? Is it a lack of Willpower,
or is there another reason? Perhaps the fear of failure or even success could
be holding you back. There’s plenty of time, or maybe your office is so
disorganized that you can’t concentrate?
There are more reasons than I have space to type, but I do
want to help you to overcome your issue of procrastination, so listed below
are 9 helpful tips to overcoming procrastination!
1.
Remind
yourself daily why you must succeed in life.
2.
Write
or type your goals, and post them around your house, office, car or anywhere
you will constantly see them. Post-it notes also work well.
3.
Encourage
yourself by listening to your favorite motivational speaker.
4.
Take
a walk in the park near your house to regather your thoughts.
5.
Develop
a support team with which you meet with at least once monthly.
6.
Develop
a regular exercise program to help keep your body healthy. This will also
relieve stress levels, helping you stay focused.
7.
Keep
a To-Do-List
8.
Set
time boundaries for your goals.
9.
Focus
on completing one task at a time.
Continue to encourage yourself each day, knowing that success
awaits you. Tell yourself: This isn’t that hard, it will be over before I know
it, I can do this, or I can learn as I go. Remember, the payoff will always be
worth the effort and energy you put into the project. When I finish a project,
or see one of my ideas come to life, I get really excited. It gives me that
feeling of accomplishment.
