Episode 56
5 Steps to Stop Procrastinating and Take Control of Your Career
Hands up who procrastinates and puts off making decisions about their career?
If you could see me now, you would see that I have both hands in the air. They say that you teach what you most need to learn and I know that there are times that I procrastinate rather than taking control of my career.
I am a lot better than I used to be but it does still happen.
In fact, I decided to focus on this topic because over the last few weeks I have noticed myself slipping into procrastination mode and I’ve had to give myself a good talking to!
In this episode I share:
Why you procrastinate and why it is 100% normal
How to override your unconscious brain's bias for procrastination
How to take action and continue to take action even when you don't feel like it
