Overcome procrastination, achieve success

Procrastination is lack of interest in completing a particular task Procrastination generally refers to the avoidance of a specific task or work, which needs to be accomplished. It is quite a common practice, as everyone tends to procrastinate at some point of time in life. Several reasons are cited for this behaviour.

Find out the reasons for procrastination and get out of it
If any of these reasons are preventing you from accomplishing your tasks on time, you must identify the reason and work towards getting out of it.

If it is a one-time recurring issue, it's better to isolate the matter in question and counsel the person and explain its effects on his/her work and productivity.

Make workable plans
Planning is very important to finish tasks successfully. Shankar suggests that in case of overwhelming projects leading to procrastination, it is advisable to break the project down into smaller components and tackle each component individually. Although not all tasks are enjoyable, they still need to be completed. To avoid procrastinating in this situation, try implementing a reward for the completion of an unpleasant task. And you would be able to keep procrastination at bay!

Tips to overcome procrastination
Here are a few quick tips you can consider to overcome procrastination:
– Work/tasks should be prioritised. Do the ones that are the most time consuming or urgent in the beginning while the rest towards the end depending on its nature.

– Divide the key objectives as per the time-plan into annual, quarterly, monthly, weekly and daily targets.

It's always advisable to follow a timetable. Teams and individuals should set practical deadlines for themselves. Setting targets, despite knowing that they are unachievable, would only lead to disappointment.
