Episode #46 Stop procrastinating your goal
Manage episode 426880090 series 3559837
Are you letting your career dreams gather dust on the shelf of "someday"?
Do you feel a nagging sense of dissatisfaction with where you are professionally, but find yourself constantly putting off the actions needed to change it?
You have a vision of where you want to be, but too often, it remains just out of reach, shrouded in excuses, inaction, and waiting for the “perfect” moment.
Let's face it—waiting around won't bring you closer to success.
To help you overcome procrastination and get started on your career progression goals, I share with you a Three-Step Approach designed to make the process manageable and less overwhelming:
🧠 Step 1: Become Aware of the Reasons for Procrastination
Understanding why you procrastinate is the first step towards overcoming it.
📝 Step 2: Identify the First Step Towards the Goal
Once you're aware of why you're procrastinating, the next step is to identify a small, manageable action you can take. Divide the task into smaller, more manageable parts.\
🚶♀️Step 3: Take That First Step
Now that you've identified the first step, it's time to take action. This is often the hardest part, but it's crucial for building momentum.
Throughout the episode, I also challenged you to confront the illusion of "no deadlines" that often surrounds career goals. Unlike time-bound tasks, our career goals often lack those external pressures, making it easy to slip into a cycle of endless deferral.
It’s time to break that cycle.
And the time to act is now.
Your dream career is calling, and it's time to answer. 📞✨
