• By Admin

Have you been giving less urgent tasks the importance they do not deserve?

And delaying urgent tasks to the last minute before the deadline?

Congratulations! You have been procrastinating!

Facing difficulties in getting rid of this habit?

Here are few effective strategies which will help you overcome procrastination and complete your task within the assigned time:

Write Down Tasks

Many of us do not realize its importance, but writing tasks down helps a lot.

Create a to-do list and just see how you feel when you cross out those tasks after you’re done! If you have only one or two tasks for the day, write down the different steps that constitute the whole task.

You will have a clear path as to how you should go about completing the task and will get started right away!

Be Prepared

Being prepared prior to starting your task will help in many ways.

Eliminate the need to move or get up and get everything you need before you start working on the task.

Avoid distractions and focus on the task you have and start working on it.

Complete the Complex Task First

Hate a particular task? Had a bad experience with a similar task you worked on before?

Complete this unpleasant task first thing in the morning!

Yes. Overcome your anxiety and fear of completing that difficult task and work freely the rest of the day, without dreading to complete the complex task!

Think about Negative Consequences

Think about the consequences of not completing the task of time.

If you have been procrastinating, you have been avoiding and delaying the most important task of the day.

Talk to yourself and ask what will happen if you don’t complete the task.

Maybe you’ll have to stay back and complete it or worst, you might miss the deadline.

Productive self-talk helps a lot!

Reward Yourself

If you have been finding it hard to complete certain tasks, start rewarding yourself after you complete that task.

For instance, get yourself a chocolate and eat it only when you have completed your task.

Find the reward you like the most so that you are motivated to complete the task on time!
