GET IT DONE
by Alexa Oliva
On the days when there is a plan I like to get it done and then get on with my day. I have been with people that have massive ADD and start a project and get sidetracked by a mosquito and then a 1-hour project takes 5 hours to finish. I do not know about you, but this frustrates me.
I like to get it done and then have fun. Not have fun every 10 minutes and prolong the completion. These people miss deadlines and make people wait. It is very inconsiderate.
Procrastination takes form in many behaviors, control, and lacking making decisions. Procrastinators tend to file their taxes late, drink more than others, file everything under “it may not be so important.” For procrastinators, not doing it, means immediate gratification instead of looking for the bigger goals.
Solution for this might be to write down every time you feel the urge to procrastinate coming on. Then you can see what triggers you. Just don’t be lazy if you really want the fix. Another solution might be to break down the big goal into little ones and start on one little one. Then one last fix might be to motivate yourself throughout the process. Focus on the end goal and how that will make you feel.
I think this is where I like to be in the end zone celebrating. That’s why I do things now to get there faster.
