Procrastination.......the evil twin of ambition

I have been thinking of starting a blog for quite some time and everyday I tell myself tomorrow is a better day than today. Now that I don’t have any excuse I thought of taking the plunge.

Believe it it’s quite an effort to get over the habit of procrastination. That's the reason I decided to write my first ever blog on procrastination.

Procrastination refers to the habit of putting off any activity till another day or time. Several studies across the globe show that around 95% of world’s population procrastinates. People procrastinate on virtually everything — writing blogs,
filing taxes, visiting doctor for routine checkup, vehicle’s annual service, making lifestyle changes, beginning retirement savings etc etc . In short, everything important.
Procrastination on important issues has serious implications. In this blog I will try to share insight on how to get over procrastination (and hopefully I will walk the talkJ)

To solve procrastination problem, take a piece of paper and write on it in big bold letters, "You are a procrastinator, and you will destroy all your dreams if you do not learn to control your-self!" Keep this in your shirt pocket or anywhere you can see it all the time. Preferably stuck this paper on a wall right in front of where you sit. This will make you constantly aware of it and will keep you away from slipping and remind you not to procrastinate!
