Just do it. shrugs

The biggest thing would be to shift from future mentality to now mentality. Be interested in the process, not the results. When you visualize or anticipate the results, it robs required energy from the present to perform the action that leads to those results...

Basically you've got to rewire yourself to derive satisfaction from doing, not resting in anticipation of a future outlook. A future which never actually matches the visualization exactly, because if it did, you'd be a gotdamn oracle.

> Just do it.

Were you ever a procrastinator? Because that is something I mostly hear from folks who weren't. Sometimes people who think they are procrastinators are actually just being lazy, which is completely different.

I don't mean that in a pejorative sense. Here is the difference, in a sitation here a task becomes larger the longer you wait: A lazy person will usually think "If I do it now it will be less work than if I wait until later", whereas a procrastinator will almost always think "if I do it later, it will only be a little bit of extra work".

To add to the "Just do it" bandwagon.

Someone told me once that she is able to accomplish so much because she does things when she thinks of them. It's a technique that she applies and when she is feeling really productive, she might loosen up on it and prioritize or delay things. She explained to me that when you think of things and say, "I'll do it later", they literally exit your mind as if you have done them.
