Hello again guys, each of us has strongest and weakest point from our attitudes and characters being a normal human being. Honestly for me, the weakest of me is my main problem because I am always the loser every time I would fight "him". I would have been winning and successful (maybe) in my life should I always be the winner against my weakest point. There were lots of good opportunities in my life that were just wasted because of this. My work got stuck because of this very bad attitude. I really really hate this attitude. This is a massive destruction of whatever plans and proposal I would make in my life. Honestly, PROCRASTINATION is my weakest point that I've been fighting over my life until now...
Guys, I know out there that some of you has also this bad attitude, can you give me your idea how did you manage to overcome and declared always the winner of this habit? Please share...

Hi there Mobhomeir,
I ran into his brother a couple of years ago and can’t seem to shake him. He comes to visit me everyday. At night in my slump, tired from the days activities consider all my desires. Then mornings light comes to me as a new day of promise. However, before I can really accomplish something, he knocks at my door and like such a fool I let him in to torment me with doubt and worry. Indecision. I’m still learning but if I just go with something and not worry if it is the right one or even about the consequences if I am wrong I might get somewhere. Still open to suggestions in how to deal with this monster.
That is a real problem for me because the guidelines say just don’t say “I don’t know” but really I don’t know! – sorry.

Sorry for not being clear. Nope, him is “indecision.”
You said, “Honestly for me, the weakest of me is my main problem because I am always the loser every time I would fight "him"
... which I took to mean the evil procrastination is a him. (not an actual person)
So to be clear, I have the same problem. I think my problem is I can never seem to decide and then put things off until it becomes a procrastination problem.
I’m looking for solutions too. Postrock said something below which looks interesting.

Sorry also my friend for not clarifying "him". I described procrastination using pronoun "him". No worries I understand if my friend...
Since we have same problem...we'll always remember this slogan always..
"don't wait for tomorrow what you can do for today"
Nice day ahead my friend..

haha you are so right!! Procrastination is my number one problem. Its so infuriating, expecially since i can pin point the exact reasons and moments in wich i developed this bad attitude.
However in many cases procrastination can be cured by just fragmenting your desires into specific tasks and set due dates. You can use task managers and similar tool, but most importantly..FORCE yourself to plan what you want to do in the near future, every week and again FORCE yourself to get these tasks done week after week.
Its like going to the jim or any other kind of training, you just need to do it over and over and the more you do it, the more it comes easy.

Yes my friend. I did it already by having a "time management". In my mind, I don't have to be worried because I will have to follow what I put on my schedules. Well, it served good the first time but it was all disorganized when "mr discipline" got away. I guess determination is lack and so with discipline must work hand in hand to battle this PROCRASTINATIONNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNN!
Thanks for responding and your suggestion my friend..i will try it and FORCE my self

Without wanting to make the problem worse and support the weekness, procrastination do you not find that setting schedules conflicts with "don't wait for tomorrow what you can do for today"?
We put off because we are told to plan and time management! Ok, if that is the problem, what about the solution.
Would it be helpful to discribe more specifically just what it is you want to do? Perhaps then I will share my goal too or should I start with a desire and then I will not really have to force anything?

I am not a patient person- I don't like waiting.
Okay I am not a 100 percent punctual- but please if ever I am late, I make sure to call or inform the person.
So- if you are late and you will never say anything- sorry, but I can't wait for another minute.
I am also aggressive- I want result there and then- I can't wait for the next day (still in relation with being un-patient)
So, when I plan, I want it now or never or better forget it.
I tried to mellow, I become more patient now and gives consideration.
The only problem is- I do not hope for delayed result (if it will be done, fine- if not- so be it)
I trust people easily but slowly I have learned to grow a stone heart- now I always put some space for doubt.
I tried to improve my weakest attitude but I can see myself getting mean or having a cold heart. (so bad)
But sometimes it pays off....than to regret after.
Have a good day dear Martin

You reminded me of my partner my bonita. Waiting for her is calvary. This is always the cause of our arguments because she don't have really patience in waiting. What if somebody would waited her and doesn't have also a patient of waiting?
Well, we have really our weakest point and we know it. We tried to fight for it but most often than not we are always the loser. But, at least we tried fighting for it.But, there were times we benefited sometimes of becoming like this but it is seldom right? it is because in everything that we have (normally) there's advantages and disadvantages same as pros and cons, am I right my dear bonita mia?
Have a patience day bonitaThanks for responding..

I have some. Procrastination, grudge-holding, insecurity, overanalízing things, weak willpower, being too sensitive, trying to live up to others' expectations... If I had to choose the weakest one, I'd go with the last one. I'm trying to get rid of that, but I'm almost alwaays monitoring how I behave around people, even in the smallest aspects.
