Most people that battle with procrastination achieve less results and find it difficult to make great impacts. I could some of the newbies that were unboarded some time back. They couldn't proceed with their journey into the system because of procrastination. They were lazy and refused to deliberately take steps that would cause a positive imprint in their lives.

Dealing with procrastination

To overcome procrastination, each step might be unique however there are general principles when adhered would go a long way to transformed one. Let me share some of these tips;

• Set schedule for each day. Don't wake up in the morning and begin to pursue things like that. Have a scale of definite tasks you would want to achieve so that you can focus your strength on it. You're not meant for everything. There's always a niche. A planned schedule will curb the issue of unnecessary time wastage. You can't be everywhere at the same time.
