Procrastination is a problem for many people. But, it isn’t the main problem. Like a symptom as pain or itching might be a sign of a physical disease, procrastination is a symptom of a spiritual disease. Whenever we find ourselves procrastinating in pursuing a goal, it is clear that something happens inside us; we are not in alignment with our goal. Even if our goal is meant to take us to the next level and help us grow, our mindset might not be ready to support it. We’re living inside a comfort zone that is keeping us safe from any sort of danger. Our inner programming perceives as ‘danger’ any change we attempt to make in our lives. We tend to live inside a known environment and our subconscious mind is trained to reject all actions which try to take us out of this area.
When you’ve been an employee for several years, you’re used to working following the instructions received from your superiors. There has always been someone telling you what to do or giving you directions when you felt stuck. If you decide to start your business and become an entrepreneur, you’ll inevitably face difficulties in following your own schedule. Knowing that there’s no one to be accountable to on one side, and being confused about how to do some specific things on the other side, drives you to postpone tasks and use your time in an unproductive way. When this happens, you witness your subconscious programming in action. Your subconscious mind wants to ‘demonstrate’ that what you’re attempting to do is not getting results and convince you to give up and go back to your previous (employee’s) status. By acknowledging this automated reaction, you’ll be able to overcome your own unconscious opponent. What you have to do is to build a very clear vision about what you intend to achieve and define why you want to accomplish this vision. Keeping permanently in your mind a clear vision about your future will help you manage your inner emotions and overcome what is holding you back. This is the first and most important thing to do. Besides, there’s a trick you can use to overcome procrastination: when you find yourself procrastinating, build the habit to start immediately an action that is getting you closer to your goal. Get immersed in the action and don’t think anymore if there’s the right moment to do it or not or if there are any excuses for not doing it now.
