My Ways Of Avoiding Procrastination

Greetings ma'am @goodybest and my fellow steemians. I'm so excited to take part in this very contest titled “My ways of Avoiding Procrastination” every individual has his or her way of avoiding procrastination and I'm not an exception to that because procrastination is one of the issues i was having back then. But I'm glad that i have dealt with it in my way. Before i share my ways of avoiding procrastination with you all let me refresh our minds on what procrastination is all about.

These can be the act of not getting to do what one intend to rather than that already done which ends up in regrets at times, it's also the aspect of not getting up to execute your plan at a particular period before its opportunities round-up then realizing that you have made a mistake and lost a lifetime privilege which cannot be gotten back in no time.

Grace and willpower one has often seemed to be the leading cause of procrastination but our strong motivation helps to overcome the act of putting things off on day-to-day activities.

Procrastination doesn't mean one is a lazy person, no. A lazy person does not do anything but still feels fine with it, one who procrastinates feels doubts and regrets not starting up his or her intentions and so it serves as a burden to try and meet up to accomplish and succeed, those who procrastinate have a desire to do something but finds it hard to start up.

Also being relaxed isn't procrastination don't be confused about it, Being relaxed means absorbing energy to regain strength but on the other hand, procrastination drains you out of that energy leaving you stressed and depressed due to lots of thinking and instability.

Therefore the So positivity of procrastination is to get things executed or done and be able to be responsible enough to relax and also deal with your workload well to be happy for a long period.

My ways of avoiding procrastination are very simple at first it wasn't easy for me to adapt to the methods but i felt i needed to work on myself in other to avoid procrastination because that is the only way i can achieve my set goals. Below are some if the ways i avoid procrastination.

First, before going to bed at night i always plan out what my tomorrow will look like by writing down or picturing the activities that i will carry out for the next day. And when i wake up in the morning i try my best to see that i followed those plans one after another. But before then, I use to simplify the task into smaller pieces and then challenge myself to carry out the task effectively.

For instance, before i write any article here on steemit i must have planned it the previous day so that i won't miss it, there are numerous contests to participate but if i don't plan it ahead of time i may end up not creating any contents at all because i will be confused on which one to start with.

Time is very essential to me, after dividing my task into smaller parts, I always time myself so that i can archive my plans for that day.

As a teacher, I know that my working hours are from 7:30 am to 3:00 pm everyday day except weekends. Apart from my teaching work, i have made it compulsory to always drop one article each day here on steemit, so before i go to work i must have known the article i want to write for that day. During break time at the school, i will read through the contest in other to get a clear picture of what the contest is all about. Immediately I'm back from work i will eat, take my bath then rest in other to relax my brain after that i will start creating my content for that day.

Secondly, any task i do each day, I use to reward myself, yes I do. It's funny, right? But that's how i do it because i always want to know if i carried out my task effectively or not and if there are any ways i can improve from the previous task then i will quickly take note of it and implement it on the next task which is ahead of me.

This method was what helped me during my school days. There is this saying “ different environments have different impacts on our productivity” and it is so true. If i am in an environment that will not be conducive for me to archive the set goals i change it with immediate effect. Sometimes if i look at my work desk and i feel it will make me snuggle and sleep or change my plans for the day, i will just live the room and go somewhere else just to refresh my head after that i will come and continue with my task peacefully.

In conclusion, it is very important that one beats his or her chest to make a positive impact in choice and decision making otherwise a lot of regrets may occur which can lead to trauma disorder, the more you get things done on time the more joy and happiness one can be and also save energy for plans.
