Why Are You Procrastinating?
  1. Priorities – You’re not organized.  Other things seem more important.
  2. Overwhelmed – The task or job seems just too big.  You’re not sure how to do it.
  3. Satisfaction – You know you won’t like doing it.
How to Stop Procrastinating

1. Priorities

  • Force rank your to do list
    • Does it have a deadline?
    • Think through the consequences to determine how important it is
    • How important is it to others?
  • Take them from your to do list … and into your calendar
  • Delegate

2. Overwhelmed

  • Break the job down into smaller, more manageable tasks.
  • Track your progress.
  • Don’t assume you have to do it by yourself.  Ask for help.
  • Make sure you’re clear on expectations.
  • Delegate.

3. Satisfaction

  • Eat the frog first.
  • Tell somebody else about your commitment and ask them to check on your progress.
  • Delegate.
