Few things: 1.) Make sure the thing you are procrastinating is something you _actually_ want to do. If I'm truly passionate about something, I don't generally find myself lacking in motivation (caveat below). 2.) Even for things I'm really passionate about, there are less interesting aspects of the work. My general strategy is to block off time (on my calendar) for 15 minutes a day doing X task. The following week I increase it to 30 minutes and so on so forth. Start out small so you guarantee success. Your brain will get addicted to it. 3.) Definitely make sure to only focus on one thing at a time. Your brain can only hold and retain so much information at a given point in time. Most ultra successful people focus on a singular area and go extremely deep on it. They don't move on from something until they've mastered it. Very similar to the concept of progressive overload in weightlifting. |
