“Discover That 1 Key to Overcoming Procrastination to Beginning With One Phone Call”
What you are about to read… is so deceptively simple that you might turn the other cheek. Yes, sure, don’t read this article if curing your procrastination with ease is not important to you. Of course I say that with tongue in cheek. I dare write this headline because I had personally used this, and taught teenagers this method as well. If an MTV addict can apply this and overcome procrastination and inactivity, imagine what the resourceful and driven adult would do!
You will stop procrastination right in its tracks forever. Actually, for only as long as you take to internalize this information, you will do the necessary things with such enthusiasm because of the rewards it brings, or the pain it lifts!
Become Accountable To a Mentor
A mentor can come in many different forms. Someone you know that is effective and you want to model is a mentor. Someone who is a friend that is getting ahead in life can also be a mentor. There are so many books out there that teach you to search for mentors in the most inaccessible of places that it literally scares you off. What I am suggesting is simply find a person who wants the same ideals as you and certainly moving ahead, and get in contact with that person.
Once you had found the mentor you are comfortable being accountable to, do this next important step.
Have a meal with the person and tell your big aspirations. Tell the mentor that you wish to be held accountable for the actions necessary for the goals to manifest. Now this is where the rubber meets the road. You cannot tell anyone who can fog a mirror your goals. People have the tendency to shoot down goals and dreams if they had not done enough Personal Development. The biggest people know that people who are dreamers revolutionize the world. Walt Disney, Henry Ford and Thomas Edison were so ahead of their times that you can be certain they were labeled “Crazy”.
Interestingly, Walt’s idea of Disneyland was financially supported by another dreamer, Art Linkletter. And, Ford and Edison were part of the same mastermind team!
Be held accountable for the plans you create.
You don’t have to make a 2 hour long presentation each time you are going to fulfill the promises, all you need to do is this one simple baby step that propels you to the moon.
Tell your mentor that you would send him a text message when you commit to a task. Text him again when the task is completed. What this does is that it puts you on the line. If you do not text back, ha! Gone is your credibility that you worked so hard to build! Now that’s a good pain to move away from. You want success don’t you? How would a bad reputation of a liar or “giver-upper” do to your image??? Think about that!
Be accountable to a Friend
Let me qualify. This friend must want the best for you. That’s why only friends are allowed here. Not people you go drinking with, or your high school roommate whom you play tennis with once a week. You need someone who already knows you are in pursuit of something bigger than a civil service JOB. Or at least, a friend who would be happy for you if you chose to be a go-getter. The reason is this. Many of your friends want you to stay the same. Consistency is a core value that people treasure. Imagine you had friends who behaved one way in a week and totally radically shifted the very next week! You would feel concerned too right??? Tony Robbins was the first I heard to mention about this, but I do not know if that theory originated from him.
Do exactly the same texting steps I outlined above. The only difference is that now it is with a friend that values your growth, rather than a mentor.
————————————————————
Procrastination can be frustrating. Instead of beating yourself up for not following through, what I am saying is let someone else psychologically beat you up. The pain of that can be a great motivator. Let someone else see for him or herself how well you follow through with promises! That is a tremendous motivator as well. What you had learnt in this article is definitely do-able.
Now, GO Do It!!!
