1-2-3
Planning to do something important? Does it also happen to be something you keep putting off? The best time to start is RIGHT NOW! Stop saying to yourself..
  • Round TUIT“Later”
  • “Tomorrow”
  • “Next week”
  • “After tax season”
  • “Next quarter”
  • “When I get around to it.”  I’ve provided one for you on the right!
  • Or insert your own procrastination term or stall tactic here: __________________

Here are 3 simple steps to move that project forward:

  1. 1231Examine your motives for pushing it off. Is this really important to you or are you just being lazy … doing things as you’ve always done them and expecting different results?
  2. Is the project aligned with your goals, your values, your dreams? Has this task passed the Important/Urgent test?
  3. Allocate 5 focused minutes to get the job started. You’d be amazed how just those 5 minutes can motivate you to tackle the rest of it.
Apply these three techniques to that project or tough task that keeps re-appearing on your “to do” list, and you’d be amazed at how much better you feel! It really is just as easy as 1, 2, 3!
