THE PERILS OF PROCRASTINATION
May 25, 2023
"Procrastination is one of the most common and deadliest diseases and its toll on happiness and success is heavy".
Wayne Gretzky
Spring is springing so let's take a second to revisit our resolutions. Frankly there is no reason why we cannot 're-launch' a promise to ourselves. Getting sidetracked can be just a bump in the road of life. Maybe it is, as I titled this article 'The Perils of Procrastination'. Or is it just failure to overcome fear that has slowed down our progress? Either way it’s Spring so let's go!
Procrastination is one of the most popular forms of self-sabotage because it is easy. Acknowledge that key and we revitalize our chances for renewed success.
If there is something you really want, you may be lying to yourself if you're not going for it. Success will not find you; you have to take a calculated risk to fulfill the dream. Procrastination is our enemy and fear is its partner!
Ask yourself these questions-
- What is the benefit?
- How will this help me improve?
- What's the best thing that will happen?
- Where's my passion?
- What's the trigger point for stopping?
Figuring out where you stop, pinpointing the failure point is a key to resetting our goal and strategy.
If you are serious about changing your life, you will find a way. If not, you will find an excuse! Face down fear and procrastination will run like a coward, it's up to us!
Think about these tips-
-
- Reset not regret.
- Own it and move on
- Increase our sense of urgency.
- Sometimes you get sidetracked, but do not let it completely derail the program.
- Education is power, learn, move, become accountable.
- Love yourself for thinking about change.

Allison McClintick is an amazing fireball of leadership skills and has a passion for #accountability. -Topics we cover are-- WAKE UP! See "constructions" for what they are and think for yourself (Kind of like a "matrix" conversation) -GET OVER IT! To find peace, you need to put trauma "in its place" (emotional frequency and its impact on brain and body) -TAKE CARE OF YOUR SH$T! Your emotional life is no one's responsibility but your own-even if someone wronged you legitimately. (Emotional accountability) -DO THE WORK! Enlightenment is VERY uncomfortable. People think they are ready-often they aren't. Because it can HURT to do this work but doing the work is the only way to find PEACE if you have work to do.
