My procrastination worsened after a very dreadful life experience, to a crippling extent, I've been able to make a very small progress, my tactic is first: show up. No expectations, just show up and try to figure the next step.
Reasons: 1. Perfectionism @1:00 2. We don't know the next step. @1:40 3. We think we want to do something, but we really don't want to do it. @2:55 Solutions: 1. What do you need to do in order to give yourself safety or confidence to get to that next step? Maybe it is more practice, maybe pros and cons list, etc... Take baby steps. @3:20 2. You never gonna know all steps. What do you need to do to get the next step. Build momentum. Get yourself in motion. Make 'the thing' a little easier.@4:25 3. How badly you really want that thing? If you give up on it, how would it make you feel? @5:40
It's not even about the difficulty of the thing. I can do more taxing and difficult tasks. But... I just can't clean my house sometimes. Idk even where to start
Mines more about not wanting to fo something but still agreeing to do it because i dont want to say no to a petson , then i put it off and 0ff of csncekking it snd i worry and procrastinate about it right up untill the ladt minute then cancel , or ghost on the petson !?
I feel like I've just gained a bunch of tools to try out and I'm suddenly very exited to try them. But Keep I'm also thinking this while in bed and knowing that I don't have to do it yet... 🙄
Not knowing the next step is my biggest problem. I love cooking because recipes and cookbooks show you step-by-step how to make a meal. The cookbooks don't tell you step-by-step how to clean up after cooking, though. 😆 My sink is full of dirty dishes right now for this exact reason. I approach the sink to wash the dishes, but then remember something I wanted to watch on RUclips and 30 minutes later I'm commenting on ADHD videos instead of washing dishes.
First - love your handle - that's perfect. I'm hearing you struggle with distraction rather than not knowing the next steps. If that truly is what holds you back, you're probably thinking too broadly?
Karen, do you have any issues with the rocketbook writing ending up on your hand while jotting things down? I am left handed- and bet it would be fabulous if they offered the tool bound on the right instead of the left as an option.
2:11 I know what I am doing!!! You don't know what you are doing?! Boo-hoo! Shame on you! Well I know very well what I am doing AND I am always very confidant that I am doing it wrong.... whatever I am doing 😞
I love all of your videos. .. I have a recommendation: if you start playing politics…. You will lose half of your audience. Take the guy off from CNN or Trump. Thank you 💪👍

It’s the perfectionist that take over for me 😢I have a saying that I heard that has helped. “Done is better than perfect “
I share your sentiment but here in the UK I hear all the time "That will do" Isn't good enough.....
Reasons:
1. Perfectionism @1:00
2. We don't know the next step. @1:40
3. We think we want to do something, but we really don't want to do it. @2:55
Solutions:
1. What do you need to do in order to give yourself safety or confidence to get to that next step? Maybe it is more practice, maybe pros and cons list, etc... Take baby steps. @3:20

Very kind words.
So much wisdom!

I *LOVE* your channel and your videos and you!
Thank you so very much.
This video is so inspiring to get me moving again! ❤
#2 is my problem... I had to tell myself that, because this project involves other people, "wait for response" IS my next step.
Thanks, that last tip is so helpful!
You're so welcome!
Where is the full video
I went to lala land 😒 Gotta watch again 🤦🏼♀️ Truly love your content 💕
I teach and I frequently tell my students that I am a professional procrastinator! 🙄
need to hire you as my coach

Wash dishes while watching videos for 20 minutes and reward yourself with comments for 5.
Use a timer since you probably have time blindness 😅

I'm right handed, so that's not a problem for me, but i've heard that's an issue for left handed writers.
Im procrastinating because Im afraid I will regret it and change course and jump on next project as usual
Aha! Not the next best step (perfectionism trap), a good next step. :)
How do i overcome this
Theory ≠ practical ✨
Ya I know what I'm doing.......SIKE!!!!!!
2:11 I know what I am doing!!! You don't know what you are doing?! Boo-hoo! Shame on you!
Well I know very well what I am doing AND I am always very confidant that I am doing it wrong.... whatever I am doing 😞
I love all of your videos. ..
I have a recommendation:
if you start playing politics….
You will lose half of your audience.
Take the guy off from CNN or Trump. Thank you 💪👍
I don't know what you're talking about. I never talk politics.
Seriously bro, this woman has been extremely helpful to so many people, how about keeping completely UNRELATED opinions to ourselves.
