How to Finish a Project and Avoid Procrastination?

#learning #stories #videos

Sabine Finzi, trainer and coach, helps you to wrap up, finish a project and avoid procrastination!

It can be very tempting to postpone things you do not like doing towards the future. This phenomenon is known as procrastination. There can be a myriad of reasons to procrastinate. Maybe you are missing a certain tool or are missing some data that requires an unpleasant phone call to get a hold of. Whatever your reasons may be, and no matter how natural this behaviour may be, you will still want to avoid falling into this trap.

 

 

A convenient mental trick to get yourself to act in a timelier fashion it to give yourself a shot of ‘artificial adrenaline’. You can take a stopwatch and allocate yourself a specific amount of time for a clearly defined specific task. It helps to think of yourself as an expensive consultant: your time is very valuable and wasting it on procrastination is a very expensive proposition that needs to be avoided. Make sure you have all the necessary preparation at hand, start the clock, and get cracking.

 

With this simple trick of the mind, you should have a much easier time to get yourself to both start and finish a well-defined task in an absolute record time!
