The key to stop procrastinating is to overtake it, be faster than it. The moment you told yourself that you're going to lie on bed... don't lie on bed, do something else that will entertain you, do something that is useful and will make you closer to your dreams. Overtake procrastination, don't let it set up, don't let it tempt you. You have to be aware of what you're doing all the time. You have to be aware if you're just wasting time for nothing. You have to train your mind to focus on taking actions and feel ashamed of yourself every time you're opening your social media accounts or watching stupid news.
TREAT TIME LIKE A PRECIOUS DIAMOND
Always think that your time was very expensive and that you might run out of it. Always think that you only have limited time so that you need to maximize every second that you have. Stop squandering it, stop using it for people and things that will not even help you. You have to feel sinful if you're wasting time, just don't use it for something that will never give you something in return. Time is money, time is opportunity, time can be use for improvement, don't use your time to make your life worse, use it to make yourself better. Time cannot be replaced, you have to remember that. Money, parties, food, opportunities and friends can be replaced but time cannot be replaced. Once it is gone it is gone, there's no more coming back.
GREAT PEOPLE NEVER PROCRASTINATE
They're not special, they're not geniuses, they just don't waste time, they knew that time is gold, they knew that in order to get on top they should maximize their time and use it for improvement only. Great people always knew that using time wisely can put them on a better position than yesterday, they just knew that all they need to do is train, learn, invest and stick with the process and they will have a good life. Time is very important, never procrastinate because it's the path to misery, choose your time wisely and you will attract better opportunities.
FORCE YOURSELF TO DO THE FIRST STEP
Just the first step and then follow through. Never mind if your actions were perfect or not, stop thinking about perfection and just focus on the execution. Never mind if you are about to fail, never mind if you're doomed for a rejection, never mind if you're late or feeling weak... just do it, take the first step and never stop. All you have to do is do the first step so that a momentum will be created. It is hard to take the first step because you're always thinking about success, you're always thinking about finishing it fast. Just take it one step at a time, inch by inch, you will be able to finish anything you want if you will be patient and present in the moment. You don't need a lot of strength to do the first step, all you need to do is change your mindset, think that it's ok if you are slow, think that it's ok if you're not perfect, it's ok if you're having a hard time making a progress, just don't waste time because that's the number one key to success.. always stay productive and never squander any single second. You have to feel that every second is important for getting better. Every second is an opportunity to put yourself on a better position to succeed. Never wait before you start, just do it. The best time to start, wake up, do something is when you feel so tired and lazy. The best time to start is when your mind is starting to make excuses, you have to defeat the voices inside of you that just do it later, if you can force yourself to start whenever you feel heavy... you already go into a different level, you already improved.
FORGET THE PAST AND FOCUS ON THE NOW
If you're lazy yesterday, if you did a lot of mistakes, if you wasted a lot of time... forget it and focus on the now. There are still lot of good things that can happen now if you will stop wasting time Focus on taking baby steps, slow down if you need to but don't ever stop. Make this day count, make every second count and always be on a sense of urgency, take actions even if you feel uncomfortable, just do it, just believe that something great will happen if you work hard, that's how to overtake procrastination... overpower it with belief and massive actions. What is gone is gone, the only thing remaining is the present moment, there are still lot of possibilities and opportunities, you have to devour all of it. Never wait, stop dwelling on the past, stop focusing on the dramas and just take actions now. Nothing can stop you if you will decide to simply work hard.
WITH WHATEVER YOU HAVE
Start with whatever you have, don't wait for someone to help you, stop looking for support. Whatever you feel, wherever you are doesn't matter. Just start and stop making excuses, the only way to evolve is to force yourself to execute every idea that's on your mind. If you think you need to exercise today or start a blog or write or simply wash the dishes... start without any form of hesitation. Again, you don't need assurance, guarantees or a flawless path... just start and learn how to adapt. Keep moving forward all the time even if the road was really rough, you have the power to overtake procrastination, all it takes is willpower and a little effort. Have no time for wasting time, have no time for dramas and excuses. It's time to take over, it's time to become a beast, just do what you need to do and that's it.
