Procrastination is a Lie!

Procrastination is a lie.

Why? Because contrary to popular belief it is NOT about laziness or willpower, but something else entirely.

What it really is, is an internal battle against uncomfortable emotions.

We’ve been told it’s a “time” problem. But in reality, what it is is an “emotion” problem.

It's our desire to avoid pain and fear that causes procrastination. And the key to overcoming it is not a matter of willpower but a shift in perspective, moving from a mindset of self-blame to one of acknowledgement, understanding, and action.
