Procrastination...
An avoidance behavior...
Did you know that procrastination is a trauma response?
It is an avoidance behavior. And it's a habit.
Today’s question is brought to you by Vinovest:
It’s no secret that investors love strong returns. That’s why 250,000 people use Vinovest to invest in fine whiskey. Whiskey has consistently matured and delivered noteworthy exits. With the most recent exit at 30.7%, Vinovest’s track record supports whiskey’s value growth across categories such as Bourbon, Scotch, and Irish whiskey. With Vinovest’s strategic approach to sourcing and market analysis, you get access to optimal acquisition costs and profitable exits.
"Procrastination is caused by the same things it creates: stress and anxiety. We avoid tasks because they overwhelm us in the moment. This feels good momentarily — we get to do something we want instead and don't need to address any obligations." —
It is a bit like the classic question of what came first, the egg or the chicken.
One thing that can help you quickly get out of procrastination, is tiny commitments, which don't seem so difficult.
But when you start working on that tiny task, you are much more likely to continue. So tell yourself "I am just going to do 5 minutes of this", and see how you just keep going like...
"What's one tiny thing I can start with?"
