Procrastinating is what keeps you from being successful

avatar

Procrastination is one of the most common problems in the day to day of many people who want to undertake a project, or some task. You may wonder what the word procrastinate means, it comes from the Latin procrastinare and therefore, we will say that "pro" is forward, and "crastinus" refers to the future. In other words, this refers to the action of postponing or postponing situations or activities that are unavoidable, taking care of other less relevant and even pleasant ones instead

You are already having the concept of procrastinating, it has happened to you that you have to do one of your important activities, you start to watch social networks, video, film and always postpone your important activities, you will stop being a productive person who will not meet your objectives and you will not be successful .

But in this time of pandemic, that we are locked in our house, watching social networks, or Netflix movies only procrastinating. You must make a decision whether you want to leave the same as when you entered this time of pandemic, or to advance in your personal development.
By always leaving your activities for later, you make your projects lengthen and never take the step to start, either out of fear or because you always prefer to do the opposite, this brings serious consequence to your life since time never returns,

The effect of procrastination

This always arises when we have something important to do, but we decide to do something else since we do not have the will to consciously say what we want to do in our time, when we procrastinate we choose the easy way, the short term and not the long term.

Here you will find some steps to help you, but it is you who decides when you get out of that.

Eliminate distractions

Before starting any activity, we must eliminate any distraction that cannot stop being able to finish an activity, our brain to find an activity that is not desirable, it will always look for a thousand ways for you to give yourself in doing something that is not what you planned, it is because They must eliminate all distractions, for example when our degree work how many times before and starting at the beginning of the first line did you not arrive on your computer to enter social networks?

One thing at a time

Other things that sometimes we always have so many activities, that we want to do all the activities at the same time, this should make me finish all activities will make you discourage doing it before starting the first activity. It is impossible to do many tasks at the same time and pretend to do them well. Our brain likes to go in parts and the smaller the better. Break your goals into mini-tasks that you can manage and it will be easier for you to tackle.

Complete 50 minute tasks

Grab your to-do list, pick one, and go through it for 50 minutes at a time. When those 50 minutes are up, rest and continue, or continue with something else. The main barrier is getting started.

Respect your time

Be very strict with your time. Control the time you spend on other activities. It is not that you can not do them, but mark yourself how much time you are going to dedicate. In this way you will become aware of the hours of the day and where your time is disappearing.

I think when you work on your own in the context of content creation, it is particularly important to have your time and your energy under control. It's so easy to be distracted and postpone what needs to be done. I like the pieces of advice that you suggest. I'm using some of them myself. I make a bit shorter time tasks. For me this works quite well and allows me to be focused on one thing at a time for a limited amount of time.


I have picked this post on behalf of the @OurPick project and it will be highlighted in the next post!

Great that you like my post. You are very right when you work creating content you must have a time planning that is short, because distractions occur very quickly. Even our private spaces, for example, I have a 3-year-old girl, sometimes she comes as a surprise to me, she entertains me, sometimes I lose track of what I do.

But my daughter is my great blessing and my arcoriris, as a mother and head of a family.
