I am a world class procrastinator (got fired from a high paying project managers role once partly due to it) and, like many here I work hard to get around it.

To be honest, the best thing that works for me is to steer into the skid so to speak. I know I am going to do it, so I let myself. As long as I timeblock, I give myself some time to stuff around and then get back into it without beating myself up.

Once I accepted it for what it is, I was able to come to terms with it and I actually manage it quite a lot better. That said, it is a lot easier to manage when you do something you love such as build websites.

I have the same problem with procrastination. I try to do something on my site every day. Be it big or small.

I got nothin! I do it too. Sometimes I just make up my mind to do it and I do.

Don... i've been there too!

Remember the small little victories you've had over the procrastination. The next time the urge comes, remember how satisfying it was to conquer it. Use that to fuel the motivation!

Thank you for sharing! you're certainly not alone.
cheers!

I'll tell you later.

Its about time and money, some times. No need to beat yourself up.. Just gently walk into new behaviors. "What is the solution to this situation?" That releases the brain to look for the next step toward your desired end. Jeffrey

I recommend Hypnosis. Best way to change a stubborn habit. I've been a practicing hypnotist since I retired and I've seen last changes in all sorts of behaviours.

No. We all procrastinate at one time or another

If you love yourself it would not cost you to quit smoking. I left him at 27. I end the nightmare for me.
