Besides the above methods, you
also have to take other steps so you can overcome certain characteristics
that prevent you from living a fruitful life. One point of reference
is to look at fear and understand why you have it. You have
to understand the fear, identify what it is, and learn how to
overcome it. The best way to describe this is with an example.
Let's say you were looking for a job and you keep getting rejected
over and over. Because of this you decide not to pursue finding
another job. Why did you decide to stop searching just because
you were rejected? Perhaps the reason you were rejected was
because you kept going after jobs that did not fit your skills
or qualifications. Perhaps you did not perform the interview
properly. Maybe your resume wasn't written correctly. There
are so many variables to consider. The one thing you have to
realize is that rejection does not mean you have to take it
as an absolute. Rejection does not mean anything personal. If
you are not sure, you need to speak to a counselor who can examine
your resume and provide a critique on your job search and interview
skills, to determine where you are lacking. By seeking a counselor,
you stand a better chance of getting good results with your
job search.
If you have problems with meeting
appointments on time, try to plan your day earlier. Get up sooner
in the morning so you have plenty of time to prepare. Then leave
at least an hour before your scheduled time, this way you can
overcome any obstacles that may come your way as you seek to
get to your destination. It is also good to get a calendar so
you can mark your appointment down. This way you can see your
appointments at a glance. It would be good to have an appointment
book to take with you when you leave home so you can keep track
of your appointments. Having reminders in front of you all the
time will help you in your efforts to improve making appointments
on time.
When you make plans, only plan
at least a week ahead of time. Do not go beyond that, otherwise
you may overburden yourself and start panicking. After you have
completed one week, plan for the next week. Keep doing this
each week for as long as you need to.
And when it comes to doing any
task, do not take on the whole thing at once. Instead, break
the task down into meaningful chucks. This way you won't get
overwhelmed with so much to do at the same time. You will only
have the small part to look at and this will help you get the
job done faster and easier. When you have completed the first
task, proceed to the next task. Keep doing this each and every
time you complete the task and you will find the whole project
will get completed without your backing out of it. You'll be
amazed at what you did when you look back and see what you accomplished.
Remember to break down each task into smaller bits until you
become comfortable enough that you can do a task without breaking
it down more.
The most important consideration
for you to think about regarding procrastination is that you
have to recognize all self-defeating problems such as fear,
anxiety, inability to concentrate, bad time management, being
indecisive, and perfectionism.
You also have to identity and
write down your goals for whatever you choose to do. If it is
a task that you have been assigned to do, then write down your
goals on paper and keep track of what you do. Do the same thing
with regards to your strengths, weaknesses, values, and priorities.
You must record everything. This way you can refer to it every
day. This will help you tremendously in both the short and long
run.
When you look at your values,
you will know what you believe and what you don't. You will
understand what your true self really is and where you stand
on many issues you are confronted with each day.
Priorities help you to keep
organized. Putting your priorities down in the order they need
to get done and looking at that list frequently as you work,
will help you immensely to overcome your anxiety of not getting
the work done. It is like going to the store with a shopping
list. As you shop for what you want, you see the item and place
it in your cart. Then you check that item off your list. This
is exactly what you do with your priorities. You simply write
them down and proceed to take them on one at a time. As you
complete the task, you check it off. This really is a great
way to make sure everything gets done, and you'll be surprised
at how you managed to complete each task in a timely fashion.
