pro-cras-ti-na-tion |prəˌkrastəˈnāSHən, prō-|
noun
the action of delaying or postponing something: your first tip is to avoid procrastination.
this month I am definitely suffering from the worst procrastination ever! Whilst attempting to write this post I have walked around the house a few times and picked up my phone many times, nothing is motivating me at all. I realised this morning that I need to sort my life out for this week and being organised really helps me to do that but now that I've made myself organised, I'm completely unmotivated to do anything else.
Recently I have found that even to open my mouth and talk is too much effort, I just want peace and quiet. I do not know what is going on with me. I want to lie in bed and watch Netflix all day but the thought of even loading up the website is too much?! Perhaps I am in need of an energy boost to make me feel a lot better.
I have came up with a list in order to help others with procrastination, and hopefully help myself-
- Push yourself- by pushing yourself to do the task, you are overcoming procrastination (such as now when I am pushing myself to write this post)
- Ease yourself- If you are not the type of person to jump straight into doing a task or an essay when you do not want to, ease yourself into it. Take one step at a time, this may take much longer than you wanted to spend on the task but at least it wasn't rushed and you'd feel better about it later.
- Reward yourself- After each task or job that you have to do but have no energy for, tell yourself that you will receive an award after which may be a nap, some type of food, anything as long as you feel better about it.
Now that I have done this post, I feel so much better and motivated because I'm making this Sunday productive in some ways.
This was a short and unexpected post but I needed to do it.
