Procrastination

Trauma, procrastination, and self-doubt are intertwined in complex ways. Scientific research has illuminated the connection between these aspects, emphasising the importance of understanding and addressing their impact. By seeking support, engaging in therapy, and practicing self-care, you can gradually break free from the cycle, reclaim your sense of worth, and embrace a more empowered and fulfilling life.

Motivation, in the common framework of thought, is a powerful force that propels us towards success and fulfilment. By understanding the nature of motivation and implementing strategies such as setting meaningful goals, cultivating a positive mindset, creating a supportive environment, and prioritising self-care, we can enhance and sustain our motivation.

Our paralysis of mind and freeze state is already no-mans-land and we can either retreat back and stay in the shadows waiting for the storm to pass, or we can head into it, knowing that we will learn such attributes as courage, fortitude, resilience, and more.

You might be doing something only very slightly differently every day, but over time that will add up to a greater and greater effect.

The way that you structure your day when working from home can make a huge difference to your ability to get lots of work done. The danger is that when you have no manager leaning over you, you might find that you allow yourself a little extra luxury and time than is ideal. That in turn could mean you end up procrastinating to the point where you fall behind before you’ve even started!

Fear of failure will lead many people into inertia - the inability to make decisions or to take action in case they receive rejection or negative outcomes. This mental state is fairly easy to identify and there are many tools in the personal development industry to help combat this barrier and reprogram the mind for success.
