Procrastination
has to be the public enemy number one. It is a career
killer.
It seems like an easy enough problem to overcome, doesn't it?
When you have something to do, do it now! This idea
isn't new, intellectually challenging or in any way detrimental to
your health or well being.
But, are you using the "do it now" philosophy?
Are you creating the habit of 'do it now"?
The "do it now" habit is a universally accepted
foundation of success. You will not find any success
author selling, "Do it Tomorrow!" as a way to
success."
You can't argue with the soundness of this philosophy if you
desire success and personal achievement.
Most people have no difficulty with accepting the idea, the
problem lies with the implementation. Right now
you have
something on your desk that needs your attention. It is
a psychic weight that is hanging over you and compromising your ability to bring your full attention to the other matters
at hand. When you finish this e-mail you will be able to
tackle it and remove it from your life.
Imagine how much better you are going to feel, knowing this
problem is now out of your life?
Why procrastinate? Why do we do it, in spite of the
nervous tension we feel when we delay?
I believe you need to reset the switch within your
subconscious that is purposely turned off to the task.
You may have feed your mind unconscious suggestions that the
task is going to be unpleasant. And guess what?
Your subconscious is making it so.
No one wants to work on a task! It is boring and it is
human nature to avoid that which is boring.
You must link your mind to the success and happiness you are
going to feel when you put this particular project behind you.
Take a minute and invest some emotional energy in the
successful outcome of this project and its benefits. Think
what you will look like and more importantly, what you will
feel like when you have put this project behind you.
When your anticipation and excitement for the completion of
the project is greater than your imagined "pain of the
task", you will see that procrastination dries up.
You have to stop feeding the procrastination beast.
Stop giving your mind procrastination thoughts. Your
mind
is working perfectly and only providing you with what you've
desired, "procrastination'.
Imagine you have a "DO IT NOW!" switch within
your mind.
Turn the switch on.
Stop reading and immediately go to the project and work on
it for 7 minutes. A current of ideas, energy and accomplishment will flow in your direction.
DO IT NOW!
