Learn how to overcome the effects of procrastination.
In this podcast, I'll cover why you procrastinate, the effects of procrastination, and how to overcome it.
Procrastination is created by you, not by the activity. The resistance to doing something is basically a fear, often a fear of failure or a fear of rejection. It can arise when someone tells you what to do and you want to resist that.
You may also suffer from the effects of procrastination when the task is boring or not motivating.
If your self-confidence is low, you may procrastinate because tasks seem harder or outside of your abilities. We also procrastinate when we associate pain with doing something. That pain could be effort, discomfort or feeling that the task is hard or stressful.
However, this is purely the meaning or perception that you give to that particular task. It's making it seem much bigger than it really is.
