Procrastination is not only the thief of time, it is the creator of subtle inner tension. You know you are cheating yourself.

There are three secrets to overcoming procrastination. One, don’t wait till you feel like doing it – the feeling will come only when you start doing it. Two, list all the things you have to do and then prioritise the list. Three, create a vision of the result and be motivated by the vision of the outcome, not the thought of the process.

And the options to those ideas? One – ask for help. Two – completely forget about it, you don’t have to do anything! Three – if there is anything you can learn from the process then see it is action learning.
