9. Discomfort intolerance leads you to disengage from the task.

Procrastination often comes from a belief that discomfort should be avoided, and you practice procrastination whenever you feel physically or psychologically uncomfortable.

Solution: Challenge your beliefs about tolerating discomfort and revise what you say to encourage yourself to engage in a task.

Focus on the longer-term rewards and start seeing discomfort as a prerequisite for growth, rather than as the enemy.
