Procrastination
Procrastination is the avoidance and delaying of doing a task which needs to be done. This commonly involves feelings of guilt, inadequacy, self-disgust, stress and depression. In the long run, a person who procrastinates tends to be an underachiever who lacks confidence and self-esteem.
When faced with a daunting task, we sometimes try to disguise our avoidance of the task by keeping ourselves busy working at other tasks that simply do not contribute towards the main goal or important goal.
Why do people procrastinate?
Reasons vary but frequently, people procrastinate because they feel overwhelmed by the task at hand; sometimes, this might be due to their own perfectionist tendencies and unrealistic expectations. People who procrastinate spend time worrying about the task rather than actually working at it.
For some others, procrastination results from their inability to prioritise, difficulty in concentrating on a task or simply knowing they will be bored by the task. Others procrastinate because they are unsure of what the expected end result is.
To overcome procrastination:
* Make a list of everything that you have to do.
* Eliminate unimportant tasks.
* Rank the remaining ones in order of urgency/importance.
* Make your tasks meaningful (e.g. try to evaluate the importance of the task by considering the ways it affects your life or those around you).
* Consult others to find out more about what is expected of the task.
* Begin tackling the more urgent/important tasks first.
* Set realistic goals for yourself.
* Promise yourself a reward if your goal is achieved.
