What Your Procrastination Really Means

EP346: Do you procrastinate? Or worse, do you identify as a Procrastinator?

If that's you, I'm here to tell you, you are NORMAL! We all procrastinate!!! So stop making it part of your identity and start being aware of when and what things you are procrastinating.

The problem is that we walk around unconscious most of the time. Our eyes are open but our mind is running on autopilot. And when this autopilot senses danger, a fear lurking deep inside, you will avoid it like the plague. That is just human nature. A form of self protection that is innate in all of us.

I do it too and I have the perfect example of something HUGE I was procrastinating on and guess what, it's something I REALLY WANTED! In fact, it's been on my vision board for 4+ years. But I was avoiding taking any action on it!!!

Fortunately I've now taken action, but recently I realized I'd been avoiding taking any steps on it because I was AFRAID. I was procrastinating one of my big dreams! Isn't that crazy?!

So I decided to do a little research on procrastination and found that there are 4 fears that cause it. And since this very enlightening topic applies to you too, because you are human 😜, I wanted to share my findings with you.

I also share two suggestions for moving past the procrastination and into action and how I did them without even knowing these are procrastination cures.

This is a good one and well worth your time. So please don't procrastinate listening to it!
