Listen ""I'll do it later." "
Episode Synopsis
"I'll do it later." How many times have you said those words? As much as I hate to admit it, I find myself trying to pull the later card way too often. It’s this idea that delaying will make things different or easier. But the reality is, delay is almost never the answer.
Here’s the problem with later. It still comes. And guess what, most of the time, you still don’t want to do that thing that you’ve already put off. So, now you either suck it up and do it, or you delay again.
Delaying doesn’t mean something goes away. Nope. It’s still there. You can reschedule, move the item around on your calendar, or continue to pile up the things you need to do…but at some point, you are going to have to face those things. They didn’t go away. Rarely does delaying make anything easier.
Waiting isn’t going to make it easier and delay will never take you where you want to go. There really is no perfect time, situation, or amount of motivation…I think so many people think that by waiting they will somehow be more motivated or excited to get things done. But that just isn't reality.
Learn to recognize delay. When you do, make yourself stop and think about what you are accomplishing by waiting for what your brain is trying to convince you will be a better time.
Do the things you know you need to do.
Stop delaying. Start doing.
Enjoy!
