Making a commitment to yourself helps keep you accountable.
Sometimes, a project just isn’t worth burning more hours over, and you ultimately need to figure out if it’s time to quit.
Becoming aware of why you procrastinate means taking a step back and looking at some of the possible reasons such as boredom, lack of confidence in the project, lack of self-confidence, and feeling overwhelmed.
If you get to your work desk and have no idea where to start, it can lead you to work on low-impact tasks (such as checking email) or other worse forms of procrastinating.
Successful people understand that tasks need to be broken down into much more specific and measurable sub-tasks.
Commit to just showing up and you’ll find yourself completing a lot more tasks.
