Procrastination

Procrastination is a habit that you have learned and that you repeat whenever you feel stress.

Procrastination is a “freeze” response to stress in order to protect yourself. It is part of our bodies natural fight, flight or freeze response.

Procrastination gives you relief from stress.

How to respond : 1) recognize that you are doing it; 2) don’t make yourself wrong ; 3) make a choice – continue to procrastinate or interrupt it by doing “5,4,3,2,1” and get back to the thing you are avoiding. 80% of people will continue to work on the item after starting.
