Know what to do , but not doing it?

Know what to do! But not doing it!!

Some people suffer with this problem. The symptom is lack of motivation or procrastination, which are very similar in results - nothing.

What is happening? Important tasks are put off and or replaced with filing, ordering your cds, making coffee and so on.

So what’s the answer? Two causes may be at the root of the problem. Fear and or no really clear objective.

Fear of failure, fear of success are difficult to overcome but not impossible. I feel the key to all of this is to have a clear major objective. I want to earn more money is OK, but I want to earn £75k in the next 12 months because I want to go to Rome and Paris is much better for example.

The clearer and more personal the objective is, the more likely it is to motivate. Then it must be broken down into monthly, daily tasks or it becomes far too intimidating.
Use a priority matrix to order tasks and use friends for encouragement to help with the motivation.

Failing all that employ a coach .A client of mine did just that, and we worked to clear up the objectives into hard cash and build up confidence. In 4 sessions she had gained enough confidence and clients to be really flying and be able to ignore all the doubters that seemed to surround her.

Goals

A child of five would understand this. Send someone to fetch a child of five.
Groucho Marx


Get those goals right , set them properly using whichever acronym you want , SMART,SECURE,GROW or whatever and find you motivation will grow . Will it survive your first blow , or your second or third ? Maybe if you’re strong you will get through this on your own , but the most successful people have had support from their family and friends .

It is no problem or sign of weakness to ask for help but surely a sign of strength . Networking , mastermind groups , and so on all help. That Goal should be stretching not impossible but hard . (Unlike the current Arsenal manager – second is good enough !)


When it is obvious that the goals cannot be reached, don't adjust the goals, adjust the action steps. ~ Confucius
