Procrastination is the result of a variety of factors, including not knowing how to plan and execute. These are skills you can learn.
The first step to changing this self-destructive habit is to acknowledge it. Admit that it is more than an occasional thing – it slows you down. While you do not need to completely understand a habit in order to change it, you do need to admit it is a problem.
The only way to change a habit is to replace it with one that increases your sense of satisfaction, instead of limiting it.
The habit of procrastination can be from over committing, among many other reasons. It erodes confidence, challenges work relationships and destroys your ability to influence and persuade, because people cannot trust you will follow through.
Tips to Power Through Procrastination:
It is easy to say, “stop procrastinating,” but I know you have said that to yourself, many times!
Science has shown that those who regularly procrastinate have increased anxiety and activity in certain parts of the brain. For this reason, it is extremely helpful to learn to use mindful attention to slow down the racing thoughts and the critical self-talk. We have several mindfulness resources to help you – in the moment – and to develop stronger habits of focus.
We believe that when you focus on building skills rather than try to strengthen weaknesses or direct your attention to problems, you achieve more in the long run. We have put together courses in Productivity, Assertiveness, Decision Making, Confidence, and much more, in our Work Smart Club Library.
We include these amazing resources within a community of leaders and professionals who, like you, want to be their best and get that promotion, or move up at work, ask for the raise, learn to manage stress, or balance their life at work, and at home. There are a variety of goals – all centered around living your BEST life. Join us!
