Habitual Procrastination Facts [PODCAST episode]
~ begin transcript~
I find a lot of people are habitual procrastinators…
not taking action right away on the info they learn at a seminar or from an online training course they’ve purchased.
They second guess themselves and what it really comes down to is they are afraid to fail…
But it goes deeper than that…
Afraid of failing is just the TOP level fear, there’s another one beneath it – which has to do with RECOVERY TIME.
We all know that time is NOT on our side…
So we make try to make sure we’re not making a HUGE mistake that will set us back years…
For the average entrepreneur or even someone who has not started a business yet, most of them are still working somewhere else…
And they want to build a business to first supplement their income…
And then finally replace their job’s income with their business.
And that’s the reason they’re out there trying to figure out what’s going to help them do that.
Todays’ broadcast is not about “WHAT” do to, we can save that for later shows…
But instead, to cure the procrastination that is doing you no good whatsoever.
Because if you’re working part time and want to build your wealth within the ‘boundaries’ of your life…
Your job, your spouse, kids and so on…
Procrastination Facts
One of the reasons you’re procrastinating is BECAUSE you have very little time to work with…
Which brings us back to the underlying fear of failure…RECOVERY time.
And that’s what most people are doing when they do not believe in themselves enough to TRY and TEST what they’re learning.
This is a VERY COMMON thing believe it or not…
And if you’re in this ‘boat’, you’re not alone.
In fact I go through these cycles…
My high end coaching clients go through them…
EVERYONE I meet goes through it.
The trick is to identify that you’re going through the procrastination cycle as quickly as possible so you can stop it and get to work.
The question comes back to what you’re willing to do to get what you want.
If you’re procrastinating on trying something ‘new’ taught in a seminar…
the answer is not “I’m willing to do anything to get what I want” because you’re NOT DOING IT.
“Well, Joey , I don’t know if it will WORK”
Guess what, THAT’S doing ANYTHING to get what you want…even if it doesn’t work.
Because that gives you data and experience to move on to the next thing.
You’ll know that plan A didn’t work – so you don’t go out there and keep learning the same thing.
So I hope this helps you a bit today to move towards what you want…
