Procrastination can be an issue for many. There are a few ways to look at it and more than a few ways to deal with it.
Abe's explanation is simply that the energy is not lined up. Either things aren't in quite the right space for optimum functioning and/or you're just not lined up with it- don't act before you're ready. They tell the story of Esther having to book many flights in one go but despite prodding from Jerry, she just didn't want to for some unknown reason. Then one night she got a internal push to call the agent up and boom! She booked a load of flights in no time- the booking person kept saying 'I do not believe this! Minutes ago, those seats weren't available!'
So whatever happens, you want to work from a place of as good feeling as you can. This could mean waiting til the time is right (although in some cases, you may feel the time is never right and put it off indefinitely!), or just working it into a better space and then jumping into it!
I know that after a group, a trip and doing other fun things, I'm in a more inspired place and can whizz through things and get tons done quickly.
Other times, especially back in the day when I hated revising and doing homework, it helps just to get a little bit done and just get a start on it. By doing this, you'll usually be inspired to do more. It isn't the thing itself that put you off, but the thought of doing it that was worse!
And release the need for perfection. Sometimes I just go the opposite and think 'Oh screw it, even if it's crap, I'll get it done and out the way!' By not holding yourself to such high standards, you give yourself permission to just get on with it. And chances are you'll be thinking 'What was all that fuss about?'
You'll hopefully then want to whizz through more stuff! I know that since I started teaching in a variety of cities, I just want to do more and more and more! Who cares how it all goes- it's just for the fun and experience of it all!
So see how you get on. Be easy about but give it a go!!!
All is well!!!
Happy procrastinate-ing!!!
Lots of love, Nick Xxx
