Stopping Procrastination

Today, more tired than usual, while sitting at work staring aimlessly at my computer, I started asking myself why I feel so lazy even to lift a brow towards my resenting workload.  Typically, I am always functioning at 110 percent. Always at my highest performance, day in and day out.  Despite cycling through my job like an industrial dryer cycling through it’s monotonous routine and feeling burned out by the 10 hour day workweek, I know that lack of a full nights rest was partially to blame. But that’s when I started beating myself up because whats really to blame is myself; for putting off work and then having to face the consequence of sleeping late. But it’s not really work that I’m talking about, it’s the procrastination that’s compromised me from being productive at work. I’m certainly not a chronic procrastinator; nor a procrastinator by trade, but I know how “putting off” can hinder a  person  from achieving a better quality of life.

There is an underlying emotion behind procrastination, and it is in our subconscious mind that stores that information. According to Debbie Papadakis, a canadian hypnotherapist and psychotherapist who specializes in procrastination defines it as a subconscious delay in or avoidance to carrying out an action. It’s derived from a latin word which means in favor of tomorrow.  Procrastination is not done intentionally and the procrastinator is not lazy or incompetent. But we all act in accordance to the beliefs that our subconscious mind holds, and it is within this belief system that causes this habit.  Granted, we have all post-poned and put things off to the last minute because life just happens. But when it becomes a real problem, like for many Americans, the need for change is utterly important when it means taking rightful responsibilty over our lives.  The tool for change becomes vital in keeping up with our demanding society.  Hypnosis is the perfect therapy in relieving the debilitating habit of procrastination.
