Ep #22: How to Stop Procrastinating

Procrastination is something we’re all guilty of. Even recording this podcast took hours longer than it should have because things kept getting in my way, or at least I allowed them to get in my way. I’ve spoken before about procrastination as a symptom of perfectionism, but today I’m getting more specific about this human tendency, so we can begin to overcome it.

Even though I work with many high-achieving professionals, procrastination is something that comes up all the time. It doesn’t matter how successful a person is, what I have found is that we all have something we procrastinate over. And while that thing is different for everyone, the reasons behind it and the solutions are all very similar.

Tune in this week to discover why we, as humans, procrastinate so readily, and how to stop. There are many complex reasons why we do this, and as a solution, I’m sharing how to bring more joy into the things that you’re currently putting to the back of your mind to ensure your procrastination-inducing tasks done.
