Inaction is a choice, the nation of procrast is a place that is often visited by most people and even some times resides, it takes effort and determination to overcome and come out, I hope you don’t visit there often and never decide to live there anymore.

I don’t perceive procrastination to be empowering but many do and most times are even confortable, vast numbers of people disempower themselves for reasons the find quit fulfilling.
So remember that failing to take specific action at a particular time when you are supposed to most especially one that you know will help propel your life forward is an action and is a choice you make.

Let’s talk about some ways to overcome this in-activeness and move you out onto the life that you want but before that let’s look at some of the reason why people procrastinate.

fair of failure: one of the number one reason why people procrastinate is the fair of failing, some people are afraid of failing at something so this consciousness of not succeeding at whatever they do becomes the negative force of action, this sometimes could be as a result of past experience or a shared experience.
Self-defeating attitude: some people are self-defeating by nature so easy to accept defeat even when they have not even try, you begin to hear quotes like, no I can’t do it, I know I won’t succeed, I know at the end am still going to fail so is better I don’t even try so that I don’t embarrass myself, while others allow negative influence take control of them.

They think they have more time : : most people are victim of this, they are always deceived by that fact that they always think there is time not been conscious that time waits for no one, you hear something like what’s one day or one month or one year?
There is still time right I can always do it tomorrow.
Failure to turn dreams into reality: everyone has a dream, but they tend to diminish when they’re not translated into meaningful achievable goals with a plan action behind it.

Waiting on the perfect time: : we must time tend to wait for the perfect time to execute our dreams I know finances can be intimidating, but so was algebra, also the overwhelming number of options can be paralyzing, in either case it always seems easier to wait until tomorrow to get started.

After underlying the cause of procrastination let’s look at how we can overcome them.

Self-recognition: To some people it is a real problem for them to be able to get rid of procrastination, it however important to first of all explore the reasons behind your procrastination and make a deliberate decision to face it.

Been definite: you cannot begin to manifest your dreams and aspiration until you know exactly what you want, define your goals be very specific about what you want, not that you want to be everything like they said don’t be jerk of all trade makes a master of none. Once you are able to identify them write them down and begin to follow them squarely.

Get a check mate or an accountability partner: this one of the secret that works like magic,
Get someone other than your best friend or spouse who is willing to checkmate you at all times to make sure you are getting you most important tasks done you can reciprocate to the them or finding another way to help them achieve their goals.
Become inspired:inspiration could be of any form, find what inspire you like the saying if you don’t know where you are going then any road will get you there. Have a clearly defined goal that motivates you, picture what you really want to have happen and determine what it will cost to get you there,

Remove the obstacle : the ignorance of where to start and how to start are one of the major reason why lot of people procrastinate this could serve as a major obstacle, with the introduction of the internet you shouldn’t have any reason for not learning or doing what you need to know or do.

Positive attitude if something is very important then it can be achieved, most successful people have all had to overcome obstacles and one of the common characteristics they all relied on was their positive attitude.

Create a plan:

schedule everything whether you have one or 20 appointment put them down in writing, make a to-do list and cross them off for every one accomplished even if it is little once, celebrate your milestone at every point as you move through every item on the list,
start by solving the most challenging one and make sure the goals are realistic once if the task is multiple steps break it down and label each steps

there is no better time to accomplish that task but now.
