Part 1 – Overcoming Procastination
Chapter 1 summary by Ogunfalu Comfort
These few points from this chapter of the books helps you see why you have not been doing much.
🛑 There’s always an excuse for a decision or an action you put off.
If you don’t care about it, it becomes a continuous procastination.
🛑 You are responsible for your life. Not taking that action can affect a part of your life or whole. You have missed great opportunities because you postponed actions.
🛑 Battling procastination is an inner battle and blaming external factors for your procastination only worsen your case.
🛑 What you considered to be hard work like; reading, meeting that prospect today, sending those emails today, writing that book today is not hard work rather what is hard work is having to learn how to shoot at a war front when bullets flies around.
The bitter truth is running away from the hard task or Har work of your business or career means you are lazy!
🛑 If you know what to do and how to do it but you are not doing it, it means you are lazy!
🛑 How many times do you postpone the hard works and settle for the easy ones like loafing around the house laughing at some tiktoks videos or consuming internet gossips? If you do it often then you are lazy!
🛑 How to overcome laziness
1. Trust your ability to control your thoughts.
2. Practice mental and physical exercise, it helps keep you focus, energised and in shape.
3. Make use of your daily habits
4. Create a list of small important tasks to do today and do them!
5. Networking and art of persuasion
6. Build a sustainable system that can build your life, career and business.
7. Above all, do everything listed above today! Not tomorrow.
🛑 My quote from this chapter:
1. Escaping hard work is the product of laziness and the core of procastination!
2. A lazy man is not just someone who doesn’t have a job but also someone that knows what to do but not doing it.
3. Save the time of your life by doing what you have to do today
