7 Effective Ways to Overcome Procrastination:
1. Figure Out Why You Procrastinate
Youโ€™ll never know what to fix if you donโ€™t know whatโ€™s broken.
Why are you delaying that task? Ask yourself:
- Is it tough?
- Do you find it boring?
- Or just simply complicated?
- Do you feel too overwhelmed by it?
2) Initiate
Suppose you wanted to start to build the habit of reading books but youโ€™re always delaying it, so you never actually start doing it.
To overcome this convince yourself that for just 5min everyday you're going to read & if you donโ€™t like it, you will close that book.
3) Make a To-do list
To overcome procrastination, one of the best ideas is to prepare a list of all the things you want to accomplish with their deadlines.
At the beginning of the day, start by doing the toughest task on your list.
4) Find inspiring people
The best way to get an instant boost is by learning from the already successful ones.
Find and be around people with positive attitudes who can inspire you to be better and more productive.
5) Get rid of Your Excuses
Stop lying to yourself about starting your work later in the day, or tomorrow.
Take your equipment and just start your work.
6) Exercise
Exercising releases stress hormones so you will suffer from lower negative emotions.
This will make you happier, more energetic and boost your productivity.
7) Reward Yourself
Give yourself treats whenever you finish something big (or even minor). Perhaps a cookie or a sip of your favorite drink.
Reward every achievement.
