Is procrastination holding you back? Here are 10 powerful ways to overcome the “put-it-off-until-tomorrow” bug:
- Do something small to get started.
- Gather all the materials or work tools needed to do the task.
- Start your day with the most unpleasant task first.
- Set aside 15 minutes today to work on your project.
- Think how you will benefit from completing the project and write down the ways.
- Think of the negative consequences of not completing your tasks.
- Don’t worry about perfection, just get started.
- Maintain a fast tempo (the sooner you start, the sooner you finish).
- Salami-slice the task or project (bite-sized pieces are easier to tackle).
- Think on paper and prepare thoroughly.
Go ahead, what are you waiting for?
