“Success is not obtained overnight. It comes in installments; you get a little bit today, a little bit tomorrow until the whole package is given out. The day you procrastinate, you lose that day's success.” ― Israelmore Ayivor
Good day my friend. Today I want to present a quote for one of my good friends and coaching client that is fighting the battle with Procrastination.
Do You Procrastinate and Delay Your Success? We all suffer through procrastination at some time in our life. If you don't today just wait until tomorrow. OK, that was a bad attempt at a joke. But, for many if not most people it is a constant struggle. It isn't caused by you. Well, not consciously anyway. It is caused by your subconscious mind. The quote is true. We get bits and pieces of our success. When we procrastinate, we lose that day's helping of success. If you procrastinate, that time cannon be made up. You lose it. Do you want to lose any part of your success? Procrastination Procrastination is a tool of the subconscious mind. Our subconscious mind uses Fears to control our lives. The Fear of Failure, the Fear of Success are two fears that are often manifested by the subconscious as procrastination. Our subconscious mind, if not programmed to understand success as a known it will start using fears to sabotage your own success. The Fears of Success and Failure are both the same but different. Don't you hate it when people use that saying - "the same but different". You can't be the same and different or can you. They are the same in that your subconscious mind doesn't recognize success. It doesn't understand it. It isn't positive or negative, it just is. Depending on how we are raised, how our environment was around us as we were growing up, the subconscious mind will view it differently. Fear of Failure If I was brought up within a successful thought process, than I could have a fear of failure. Our parent or may have shown disfavor when we didn't achieve what was expected of us, what they wanted or thought we should do. Because we didn't meet up to their expectations we were derided or not shown positive responses. Our subconscious mind can cause us to think that if we fail at what we are trying to achieve, then we will once again be derided or shown disfavor. To prevent this from happening, our mind set about not letting us complete the tasks that would lead to this activity. Procrastination is the tool, the way for the mind to prevent this situation from occurring. You can't fail if you don't start. But, You Do! Not starting is a failure to accomplish what you wanted to start. Then the mind starts saying the next time, "What, You have never completed anything before. What makes you think you can do it now? The Impostor Syndrome then start to move into your mental house. Fear of Success Our subconscious mind, when it doesn't recognize success as a known, it will often present in the form of Fear Of Success. You start trying to do something that could make you successful and it your own mind starts freaking out. "Wait, you've never been successful at this kind of thing. You can't make $5000 per week. You've never made more than $2500 a month. How are you going to make that kind of money?" The mind, when it doesn't recognize our actions and thoughts as knowns, it will start to sabotage your success. It will do things to keep you from doing what it does not know. It will make you procrastinate. It doesn't matter if that change is positive, it will not recognize you doing it and then do whatever it can to shut you down; to protect you! It's not being mean. It wants to make sure that you are doing what it recognizes as it's own truth. One of it's biggest tools is PROCRASTINATION. " Hey, you have so much else to do right now. Housework needs to get done right now. You need to go work in the yard. Hey, you haven't seen all of the episode
Every test in life makes us bitter or better, every problem comes to break us or make us.
The choice is ours whether we become Victim or Victor.
