Episode 3181:

Explore the multifaceted nature of procrastination with Dr. Margaret Rutherford, as she delves into its roots ranging from trauma to perfectionism. Discover practical strategies to tackle procrastination by understanding its underlying causes and learn how to transform shame and self-doubt into empowering self-compassion.

Read along with the original article(s) here: https://drmargaretrutherford.com/understanding-and-overcoming-procrastination/

Quotes to ponder:

"When procrastination is no longer manageable or funny, these procrastinations aren’t a laughing matter; instead you feel humiliated by how insignificant your fears seem and chastise yourself, 'I don’t know why I can’t do this, everybody can do this.'"

"If it’s mainly anxiety, then calming techniques such as mindfulness or meditation could be useful, hypnosis is a possibility, cognitive work (challenging those irrational thoughts), and regular exercise could also be helpful."
