Today we have to talk about procrastination and some tools such as the use of a coworking space, use of calendars…etc.
Maybe you have heard the word “procrastinate” countless times and know its meaning or perhaps the term is unknown to you.
In the professional field, the term procrastinate is on the professional agenda since it is supposed to consist of leaving work for the next day.
Therefore, if we want to talk about procrastination, we are referring to that eternal and vicious circle that does not allow us to make a decision and it becomes an indecision to carry out any specific task that, no matter how simple it may be, is crucial to completing a larger task.
What sectors are the most affected?
Without a doubt we could say that the sectors that suffer the most from this phenomenon are the self-employed and freelancers. Since they are those people who usually work from home and it is often difficult to combat all the distractions that exist in our habitual residence. Whether it’s television, neighbors, noise, smartphones, household chores…
When the task we have pending becomes complicated and carrying it out involves leaving that comfort zone and making a greater effort than usual, it becomes difficult.
We always tend to be vulnerable to postponing decisions, extending those projects until the last days until there is no choice but to do it at the last moment. This causes a lower quality of work carried out, in addition to showing a lack of commitment and dedication.
What is procrastination?
Who better than Tim Urban in this Ted talk to tell you about procrastination and notes on how it acts in each person’s mind.
What can procrastinate on projects cause?
When carrying out a project, whether personal or work-related, and it is postponed in time to the point where decisions will be made at the last moment, the most sensible thing is to accept that the result will be negative.
Generally, without planning and with last-minute improvisations, the result is usually negative.
How to stop procrastinating?
It may be difficult at first, but it is a feasible challenge. Facing that task that you avoid so much and produces so much laziness is not easy, but don’t worry, when you finish it leaves a good taste in your mouth.
Like that feeling that appears when you have everything under control, when you dedicate the necessary time to each task. In addition, the result is usually better, in addition to feeling great satisfaction and self-fulfillment.
That gratification and well-being that you feel when you have fulfilled yourself. It’s a real pleasure!
Tools and actions to combat procrastination
Great willpower is necessary, the use of schedules, and an agenda to plan, and avoid distractions that prevent concentration.
Many people for whom teleworking at home is impossible choose to go to a coworking space, a space where they can carry out these tasks in an ideal environment.
