To overcome procrastination…

Just go!

It’s simplistic and if life was as easy nobody would struggle, but after researching about the topic, all comes down to get over that discomfort, whether is to do the dishes, start homework, or do the lawn, those things won’t get done by themselves, and if you have to do them anyway, there are now two things to deal with, first the activity itself, and second now the discomfort of knowing you still have to it.

You keep passing through the pile of dishes and they’re still there. Sometimes the consequences of inaction are clearly visible, sometimes they take a long time to materialize.

It turns out if you complete the task right away you can move on unto other things, the sooner you get through the discomfort, there’s less things to worry about, less task to do and by repeating it, it starts getting easier.

Now not all the tasks are created equal, some are super complex and/or difficult to do, but are they really? Can you ask for help? Split the gigantic task into smaller ones, or just get started and see how far can you get?

At the end the fastest, more effective and at a degree easier way to overcome procrastination is to just go and do the thing.
