19. DONE IS BETTER THAN PERFECT
Perfectionism is a big cause of procrastination… that feeling of wanting to get it right / not wanting to make a mistake or fail holds us back so often from actually getting on and doing it. Because we feel we won’t be able to do it perfectly or it might not work out, we don’t do it at all!
It’s sounds crazy but it happens all the time. Think about all the things that you procrastinate over… could it be perfectionism/fear of failure that’s stopping you from getting on with it?
If so, it’s time to change your mindset. Perfect is impossible. You’ll never attain ‘perfect’. Aim instead for ‘good enough’. ‘Good enough’ is infinitely more achievable and aiming for ‘good enough’ will help reduce your mental resistance to doing the task.

20. PEBBLES AND SAND
A big procrastination lie that we tell ourselves is ‘I just don’t have the time to do XYZ’. We feel we don’t have time to do the big important things because the everyday ‘essential’ tasks take up all of our time already.
This is rarely true!
Essentially what we are doing is using ‘not enough time’ as a procrastination tool. I mentioned Parkinson’s law earlier – the adage that ‘work expands so as to fill the time available for its completion’.
Well, in this case, the pebbles are the big important tasks (the ones you are most likely to procrastinate over!) and the sand is the ‘essential’ everyday activities… Prioritize the everyday tasks and you’ll never have enough time for really important things. Prioritize the big important tasks and the rest will somehow fit in… try it if you don’t believe me, it really works!

21. GET OVER YOURSELF AND JUST DO IT!
Any goal worth having is going to involve some degree of hard work, dull repetitive tasks and daunting challenges. Remember YOU are in charge of YOUR life and you can CHOOSE to knuckle down and get on with it or you can CHOOSE to blame ‘lack of motivation’ and ‘I just can’t seem to make myself do it’ until the cows come home.
If you look at successful people in any field, you’ll find one thing in common: they didn’t allow themselves to give in to procrastination. (Note, I didn’t say ‘they weren’t tempted to procrastinate’ – everyone’s tempted to procrastinate… but successful people CHOOSE not to give in to that temptation!)
At the end of the day, you need to decide if the goal you want is worth the cost, and if it is, you just need to knuckle down and get on with it!

Anxiety disorders are mental health issues that cause feelings of anxiety, fear, and worry. The fear comes from a reaction to current events and being worried about future events. These disorders are frustrating for those who suffer from them because they experience constant unwanted thoughts.
While occasional anxiety is normal, people that experience frequent, intense, excessive, and persistent worry and fear likely have an anxiety disorder. They will get these overwhelming feelings even during everyday situations.
Anxiety is the result of abnormal chemical activity in the brain. Don’t ignore chronic anxiety, as it can impact your health and overall quality of life. It interferes with your daily activities, and the feelings are hard to control and tend to be out of proportion to the actual event.Understanding the symptoms and causes can help you identify the underlying issues. Once you recognize the symptoms, you will know to seek a diagnosis and find a treatment method.

What Are Anxiety Disorders?
Anxiety disorders are mental health conditions that can prevent you from living a normal life. They interfere with your ability to work, attend school, visit family or attend family events, and participate in other social situations.
You might notice that you avoid certain places or situations that trigger anxious feelings. Symptoms can start anytime during your life and continue into adulthood.
Anxiety is a normal reaction to stress and potential dangers. For those without disorders, the anxiety will ease once the stressful situation is over. People with anxiety don’t recover so quickly, however.
Not only do anxiety disorders make it hard to recover from stress and danger, but episodes can also occur for seemingly no reason. Sometimes the episodes involve sudden feelings of intense anxiety, terror, or fear that peak within minutes and make it hard for you to function. These severe episodes are called panic attacks.
