3. BREAKING THE CYCLE OF PROCRASTINATION - Becoming Organised - Jack’s Empowerment and Inspiration - Empowerment and Inspiration

 3. BREAKING THE CYCLE OF PROCRASTINATION.



One habit that may make even easy activities seem difficult is procrastination.  Delaying a task generally begins small, but before you know it, deadlines pile up, stress levels rise, and productivity declines. Procrastination is often caused by feelings of overload, uncertainty about where to begin, or fear of failing, rather than laziness.  Understanding the causes of procrastination and employing easy techniques to act, maintain focus, and gain momentum are necessary to end the cycle.

Dividing your work into smaller chunks is one of the most effective strategies to combat procrastination. Procrastination might result from feeling intimidated by a large task or obligation. Concentrate only on the initial step rather than the entire assignment.  If you have to clean your room, for instance, start by focussing on one area.  If you need to prepare a report, start with a rough plan.  Making things easier to handle, makes them seem less overwhelming, and gives you a sense of accomplishment, which encourages you to keep trying.

Even for minor chores, setting deadlines can be beneficial.  It is easy to keep putting things off when there’s no definite deadline.  Even if you just have ten minutes to begin working on anything, set a deadline for yourself.  You can also stay on track by holding yourself accountable, by utilising a calendar, setting reminders, or sharing your goal with someone.

Eliminating distractions is another crucial tactic. 


Television, social networking, and even pointless alerts can divert your focus and exacerbate procrastination. 


Establish a workstation that supports your ability to concentrate; employ productivity tools to reduce interruptions, turn off distractions, or set a timer.  

Procrastination might occasionally be an indication that you need a break, so remember to plan brief mental rest periods in between chores.
