Are you a pro at procrastination?

By , December 31, 2010

A good business coach will save you time and money.  As you might have learned at college, procrastination is thethief of time. This tendency to put  jobs off until some time in the future , to steer clear of undertaking  jobs that really ought to be completed is a more common illness than the influenza.
 Yet, how fulfilling our existences really  might be if we overcome this mental malady. How much less  stress would we carryif we would not allow ourselves to be mentally burdened with incomplete projects hanging over us.

 People cite a number of causes for  procrastinating from negative self talk, “I can never seem to get this done right ,” to remaining unclear about the activityor not understanding the relevance of the task, to finding the task uninteresting – particularly true with repetitive tasks, to bad time management.

Whatever the cause, or excuse, procrastination  is rooted in our mind, in the way we think, and with the right mind training  all of us canlearn to rise to the occasion “mentally,” and get it done. Boring and recurringduties are often the most difficult to findinspiration for.

 In the business world, procrastination drains massive amounts of profit .  With procrastinators,  it can be the corridor meeting, surfing the net, or the coffee pot – they all work against inertia . However,simply creating activity is quite often all that isneeded to transform the inertia.  Motion encourages additional motion. 

 It’s not just employees who suffer from procrastiantion.  Business owners can be among the worst of them – especially whenever thingsaren’t going well.  To remedy procrastination inthe workplace, the  perfect place to start  is with the proprietor ormanager of the business.  You can’t expect your team to show a quality that you won’t or can’t demonstrate yourself.

If you find that you  constantly find that you never seem to complete your tasks  on a personal level, or in the event you  own a business and find that your team are always struggling to meet deadlines , you may be well served to secure the services of a business coach who is adept at trainingpeople to overcome procrastination. Enterpriseproprietors and staff members both appreciate the workplace a lot more when they have learned to self start and conquerprocrastination.
