Dealing with the challenges of procrastination... If you ever get around to it.


Much has been written over the years about procrastination. It is something everyone can relate to at some point or with some aspect of their life.

For me personally it has reared its ugly head in the form of one issue. My God it has been challenging to overcome but, I think I've made some inroads. This may be an article that gets longer and longer as I proceed.

  • The first thing I did was acknowledge that part of me really doesn't want to deal with the issue at hand.

  • That was followed by a promise to myself not to ride the old "Guilt Train".

  • The third thing I did was, instead of taking on the entire issue and becoming all knowledgeable about the topic and the individuals involved, I gave myself permission to deal with smaller aspects and acknowledge when any movement toward a solution had been found.

These three steps have personally improved the situation. Now it seems to be the smarter you and are the more aware you are, the more creative forms of procrastinations you can dream up.

Anyway this is just being a micro article. Scarcely more than a thought... For now and will have to see how things progress. But it is nice to know that they are progressing.

Take care Patrick
