Procrastination is the thief of productivity
You can’t get anything done in your life if you
allow procrastination to get the best of you. There have been lots of articles
on how to beat procrastination (Trust me I've googled self-help articles on
procrastination a dozen of times) and nothing seems to work, that’s because people often write
from their perspective, about what helps them to beat procrastination, and we
are all not alike!
This article is not about procrastination, it's
about the results of procrastination. When you allow procrastination to take the
wheels in your life, you will lack consistency. A lack of consistency in your
brand (Can be yourself, because you are a brand on your own) results in negative
consequences.
Consistency is key 🔑🔑🔑
There's a reason why consistency is important, it's
because consistency is one of the things that highlights your brand to
potential partners/investors etc, and no one wants to work with someone who isn't
consistent. Think about it, if you don’t take care of yourself physically, do you think
potential suitors or bachelors would approach you? Or even take an interest in
you? (Granted, you could have someone still take an interest in you but they will not be the kind of suitor you would like to attract). Likewise with your brand, consistency shows your dedication
towards your brand, the love you have for it and the potential you see in
it! Which brings me to my next point. If you aren't consistent, it reflects badly
on your brand.
Wake Up With A Goal everyday ⚽⚽⚽
I think this can help a majority of people deal with
their procrastination habits. Setting a goal for each day helps in some way to
get you focused, unless you lack motivation and live for doing nothing. I
honestly think that having a goal for the day gives you the needed motivation to
at least do something that particular day. If you're not a pro at this, you have
to start out small. Lazy habits aren't easily broken. So don’t overwhelm yourself, but of course don’t aim too small.
What is a Goal? 💁🙆🙅
A goal, in the dictionary is defined as: "The object
of a persons ambition or effort, an aim or desired result."
Another definition is: "The destination of ones
journey"
The first definition is relevant to this blog post,
you ultimately need to have "The Goal" (described as the second definition above).
Which is where you see yourself/brand going, and the little goals (first
definition) you set each day are what help you to achieve that goal. So you
have to ask yourself what you'd like to achieve tomorrow that can be added to
your progress.
"Nothing beats a determined and focused woman."
The perks of waking up with a goal in mind everyday
are as follows:
· It's an easy way to keep track of your progress in
terms of reaching your ultimate goal (Second Definition) 📝📌
·
Aids in getting you to become consistent. 👍👍
·
You know what you want to achieve for the day and
are less likely to procrastinate, because it gives you the feeling that you are
living for something/have purpose. 💃💃
🚩🚩🚩
If you struggle severely with procrastination, you should either google tips and tricks to help you or you seriously need to reevaluate your ultimate Goal/s. It could be that it doesn't excite you enough for you to be ambitious , hardworking and determined towards it/them.
What you sharing here is very interesting and many young people trying to grow their brand take it lightly.
