Are you all as big a procrastinator as I am? I didn't used to be, I used to be right on top of everything but over time as the responsibilities piled up I began to procrastinate. You know you see that stack of dishes and think I'll do it later and then a few more dishes gets added to the stack and then when later comes you say "I'll do it later" and before you know it you are forced to wash the dishes because ever single one you own is in the dirty dish stack or if its a reeaallly bad procrastination day you only wash what you need at the moment and say you will get to the rest later lol.
I don't know about you guys but when I put something off until later because I just don't feel like doing it at the moment it still sticks with me, it hangs over me in my subconscious (thank God for spell check, I can never spell that word!), I may not even realizing its hanging over me but I do know I don't feel completely relaxed and I feel stressed and that makes sense since you are just letting things pile up on yourself until you have to dig yourself out of the hole you dug for yourself.
So what I propose is that this week when you find yourself saying "I'll do it later" or "I'll do it tomorrow" -stop and just do it, do what ever it is that you were going to put off just stop and do it! I'm wondering how this will make us feel over all. I'm wondering if I have the will power to actually do what I am proposing lol. I'm going to try, if you try let me know if it makes a difference in your over all thinking.
Oh dear, yes :) This is still one of my definite goals of self-improvement solidly on my agenda. It's something I want/need to challenge myself on. It's the small tasks I find easy (like doing the dishes). It's the bigger tasks that I sometimes struggle with :)
