Can you believe it? There really is such a thing! How do you feel about procrastination? Does it frustrate you? Do you feel weight from things left undone? Does it affect your self-image or make you feel “less than?”

You may not expect a professional organizer to say this, but I do believe there is a place for procrastination! We obviously cannot do everything at once. Some things have to be left for another day.

The trick, then, is to plan your procrastination. This really is prioritizing. It’s choosing what for you is important versus dealing with things only as they become urgent.

May I suggest celebrating this week by choosing one thing that you really have been procrastinating and getting it done. Select a task that will take less than 30 minutes and that you can do without much expense. Schedule that 30 minutes into the next three days and keep your appointment with yourself! Then, celebrate the progress!

I’d love to hear what you choose, how you make it work and how you feel when you finish! Comment here or email me at laura@harmonywithin.com.
