Commit to quit!
Last Monday we talked about the fears associated with procrastination. The last fear mentioned was the fear of commitment. Today we go a little deeper.
For all of us procrastinators, there is a possibility we are afraid of commitment. Why? Because once you make a commitment (even if it is only in your head) to do something, you either do it or you feel like a failure.
The experts think that procrastinators feel safer if we do not commit. But guess what? If you never do anything, you are not going to progress. In a sense, you are failing anyway. And as we discussed in earlier posts, what is the big deal about failing? Failing is how we learn.
I ask you, if this is your reason behind procrastinating, commit to quit procrastinating and try something. Feel the fear and do it anyway and then, tell me all about it.
