Procrastination -Tips to Stop Procrastination

If you find your always start something but can never seem to finish, or you tend to put things off what you know you can and should be doing, then you are probably a procrastinator.

Lack of focus can be a reason for procrastination as is lack of good time management and organizational skills. 

So what can be done to help improve and stop procrastination.

1. Start using a 'to do' list - put all your tasks down on paper or electronically.  Whatever you find easy to use.
2.  Prioritise your tasks.  Are the tasks listed really necessary, can you delegate? What is urgent to be done now, and what can be done later
3. Put a timescale against your to do lists and priorities . Make it realistic and try to stick to them
4. Focus on completing one thing at a time,and try not to start several tasks at once leaving them part way through.  It's much easier working on one thing at a time.  
5. Sometimes you have just got to do the horrible tasks first.  Don't think about it, just do it..

If you follow the above,this will help to cut down on procrastination and you get a great sense of satisfaction when you complete each task.

Are you living with a Murderer?

How many times have you put something off because you were just not ready to tackle the problem, or think to yourself, I will do this another day. Before you know it time has gone by, and you still haven’t done anything constructive. DO you have a murderer living in you?

There is a lot of types of murderers out there, let us see, we have the procrastination murderer - you know the one, where you can't be bothered to take action at the time it is needed due to inertia or laziness, get rid of the procrastination murderer.

Hey an let's not forget the'perfection murderer', where you strive or everything to be perfect, you want to understand the business thoroughly first, you want to set up your website page by page, and not publish until everything is perfect, you don't want to speak to anyone, or sell anything until your website is in place and you understand more about your product. Get rid of the perfection murderer...

Oh, then there's the 'unteachables' murderer, the one who thinks they know it all, and can get by without being shown, taught or guided to setting up their own business. They have done it before, and think they know it all. Get rid of the 'unteachables' murderer.

The cynic murderer has an answer for everything, they usually have negative attitudes are similar to the unteachables and no matter how much you work with the cynic they will always have a negative word to say, nothing positive.

In business, it doesn't matter what business you are thinking of starting up, you need to work with your mentor or your sponsor, they have been shown and have gone through the setting up stage, they have already walked the steps you are about to take. Use their experience, to short cut your way to success. Get rid of the 'murderers' in you.
