Procrastination - why do we do it?

Thanks to Dr. Rick Brinkman

Procrastination steals energy from your life!

1. The problem is too big

"I don't know where to start!"

break it down into smaller steps

2. Fear of failure

if you don't start, you can't fail

the smaller steps are easier, therefore harder to fail!

3. It's something unpleasant

it may be less bad if it's smaller

4. Perfection Paralysis

"I won't do it until I have enough time to do it all at once, and perfectly"

allow yourself to be imperfect

5. Habit

habits are made to be broken

Pseudo-procrastination

putting off things you shouldn't be doing anyway
