    "The chains of habit are too light to be felt until they're too heavy to be broken." and "The reason that most people fail instead of succeed is they trade what they want most for what they want at the moment." sum up this video for me.

    I'm actually pricrastinating right now (the last few weeks) _because_ of time pressure. I started out just fine, but then I got sick, had unexpected things take up my time and found myself having to catch up. I hate having to catch up. I hate having less time. I hate not having a clear vision of what I have to do. I hate having to catch up. I figured out I just have to do _something_ everyday. I don't have to stress over _everything_ all at once, just do one thing a day and that'll ease me and open me up to do more.
    And I think this "just start it" and "just do it for 10 minutes" approach is really going to help me! I was skeptical about this video at first. But I think this will help me. Thanks. :)

    There are times when doing a physical activity like skateboarding, walking on the beach, biking, jogging, dancing, etc. can help me get out of a funk and just feel inspired to act.

    multitasking is a several issue for me with a pretty hefty ADD diagnosis, no excuse. A simple acronym for a complex set of challenges I deal all the time. For me having started writing down lists and short progress logs in Evernote on a daily basis for little over a year now has done wonders!

  • @Terra.Nicole
    @Terra.Nicole 3 ปีที่แล้ว

    Thanks for this!! I struggle so much with procrastination!! It’s unbelievable. The funny thing is that I am so goal-oriented and actually want to improve the quality of my life. I just get distracted so easily and don’t have the confidence to chase my goals. It’s really because I’m doing everything by myself, causing me a lot of uncertainty. So I think my lack of confidence is causing my fear and my fear is causing my procrastination. I’m aware of the problem. I just have to figure out how to solve it.

  • @hypnotix77

    I was going to write this comment the other day, but something good on TV popped up. Then yesterday, I wasn't feeling that great. So I decided to do it today because the electric is out and there's nothing else to do. I guess you get the point. I'm a procrastinator. Great review. Keep up the good work.
