Stop Procrastination With One Question

Are you a member of the Procrastination Club?

Procrastination is the intentional and habitual postponement of an essential task that you should be doing.

The other possibility is that it simply doesn't mean enough to you to start the process. Or, said another way, other things mean more to you.

Finally, your wisdom is telling you this is not something you should be doing.

If not, you know why you are procrastinating.
