Today, procrastination is the thief of our time because we have slowly neglected the fact that we are able to carry out a particular task. We lock ourselves up due to fear of the unknown. We tell ourselves we are unable, instead of telling ourselves how capable we are. We are very frightened to undo the skills and capabilities we have within ourselves because we feel we would not be up the mark. Procrastination never permits us to go out of our comfort zones. It destabilizes the belief we have in ourselves to do a particular task. Procrastination exists in a mind of laziness and an inability to say "YES" to the most frightful events in our lives. It believes that time is expensive and that time is also limitless. There was this social media influencer and content creator who narrated how she procrastinated for almost 7-8 years of her life due to lack of belief and lack of persistence. According to her, she recounted how she started blogging in about some months back and was not getting a lot of traffic on her posts. She also told me that she wanted to give up and let go of blogging. I told her to not procrastinate, but put in more work than she did earlier and believe in herself. Two weeks after our conversation, I received a call from her where she told me how her page had miraculously grown from where it was earlier. She also told me that her contents grew her more traffic and that generated her a large number of audience. Likewise, so many of us who are battling with one disbelief of ourselves or the other, we are to see in this story and the stories of many who have kicked procrastination far from their lives the ability in every inability, the possibility in every impossibility, and the zeal in every fearful event that life presents us. The question remains; procrastination can come at almost everytime in our lives, but how do we respond to it when it comes ? Do we lock it off from our lives ? or Do we admit it to our lives ? All these questions are personal choices that we ourselves have to make. The ability to be 50% or 100% sure of ourselves depends on us to make either of the choices possible. The ability to fully realize our full potential comes when we stop at nothing to understand ourselves more better. So, procrastination can go out of our lives for good when we make conscious efforts to take it out of our lives. We can change our lives by changing the way we think, so that we can know who we are and what we are made of. The change begins with you first.
