Procrastination – Start getting stuff done -_-

My personal promise to stop procrastinating and to just get stuff done is paying off. I’ve been successful in personal tasks but my day job is the one area I am hopeless in. See why it’s important to like what you do for a living?

I’ve been thinking about doing some radical changes in my life lately and starting in the New Year I will make steps to do more than just complain about problems and just start solving them. I am in the process of making a huge “to do list” of problems in my life to solve and goals to achieve in the coming year but first I need to stop putting things off or allow myself to be negatively influenced by persons or uncontrollable events in my life.

The negative influences are easy to get rid of but the procrastination is a bull I’ll have to take on by the horns. Like most geeks I turned to Google for a cure and it delivered a great page with tips for overcoming procrastination; I’ve printed it, I’m reading and I shall be victorious!

Do you procrastinate too much?

  1. well I use to procrastinate less than a year ago. It depends on the situation, if you want something really bad, if you have ur mind set on accomplishing a goal….then do it! Like I said, it depends on the situation, at the same time it shouldn’t. Because when u start procrastinating & making excuses it will soon cripple areas in ur life then it will cripple you as a person. You too young to procrastinate, there are so many adults in life who just sit there putting shit off (excuse my lingo) & dem wonder why things don’t prosper for them yet. Please don’t get caught up in that. You are a bright man & from what I see ur always on top *wink* so stay on top ok!

  2. Hi Buddy,

    I saw that shirt some years back and it cracked me up. I’ve got to get one of those.

    I give you geek points for turning to Google for the answer.
    It might be useful to check out 43things.com too. There are a lot of people who want to "stop procrastinating" and others who offer advice.

    But the BEST in my book is Ben Franklin’s Autobio. He dedicates one whole part (of the 3 part bio) to his method of developing virtues. Free courtesy of Google Books: http://books.google.com/boo

    The part I’m talking about is starts on page 147. Let me know if it helps

  3. How ironic! Are you saying that you procrastinate too much so you’re gonna do something about it and start doin the things u shud and fix up ur life etc.,….only ur putting it off till the new year. Hmmm, now that’s procrastination at it’s height. Mi a dead with laafff.

    But mi a support u on this one still. I learning how to just do it too; so we can stand together – accountability partners.

  4. @ Kurt…rofl, ok bro i’m all for the accountability partners idea

    @ Leon…yea we all are in some way or another leon, it’s just that some of us more than others
