Thank God it’s Monday!™ Put procrastination on the back burner. Procrastination is more than a time thief…it robs you of your self-respect and the respect of others. It costs people their jobs, businesses their profits, and it shuts out opportunities for a bright future whenever it becomes a pattern.
Dr. Norman Vincent Peale, in his book The Power of Positive Thinking, describes how procrastination nearly “swamped” him until he did something about it. Here’s his formula for conquering that monster:
- Pick one area where procrastination plagues you, and conquer it.
- Learn to set priorities and focus on one problem at a time.
- Give yourself deadlines.
- Don’t duck the most difficult problems.
- Don’t let perfectionism paralyze you. IF you put everything off until you’re sure of it,
you’ll never get anything done.
So it’s time to put procrastination ON the back burner.
Have a great Monday!
