Learning To Follow Through On Projects and Not Procrastinate

Procrastinating is not always bad.

Some people put off tasks until later to

give themselves more time to think and

develop solutions to problems.

If you have a good command over

managing your projects, then you have

little to worry about with procrastination.

However, if you are among the throngs of

people who suffer negative consequences

because you put off work, you need some

strategies and tools to help you to avoid

procrastination.

Take a moment to think about the times

when you have put off completing your

projects.

Review the reasons you decided not to

continue or start work.

Skip the reasons you give to other people;

just between you and you, pin down what

is really keeping you from working.

Common reasons for procrastinating include…


• Not sure what you need to do next



• Boredom



• Boredom

• Too difficult



• Boredom

• Too difficult

• Frustration



• Boredom

• Too difficult

• Frustration

• Aiming for perfection

The solutions for the reasons you give

yourself for not continuing through with a

project fall within two general categories,

information and inspiration.

Magnetic sign holders let you slide

informative or inspirational documents,

photographs and other papers in through a

side entrance.

The magnetic backing lets you hang the

holders anywhere a magnet will stick.

Lack of the proper information is a key

impediment towards completing your

projects.

Since information comes in many forms,

choose the ones that will help you the most.

Fill your holders with…


• An outline of steps to complete the project



• Contact information for sources of help for the topic or specific project




• Facts about the project topic that may help you to move to the next step





• Details about similar work that you completed in the past that you can

apply to the current project





• Details about similar work that you completed in the past that you can

apply to the current project

• General guidelines about the how to accomplish the project

Find the things that inspire you to do a better

job.

Look for motivational pieces that explain

why you want to work.

In addition, you can identify the benefits you

receive from completing projects in a timely

manner.

These benefits may be intangible, such as a

general sense of satisfaction for a job well

done.

Use your magnetic sign holders for items such as:

• Vacation and holiday photographs



• Images from future vacation spots




• Mementos of family activities to remind yourself of some of the

beneficiaries of your work






• Quotations that help you to focus






• Quotations that help you to focus

• Copies or lists of past achievements to remind yourself that you are capable

of completing the task

Whether informative or inspirational, keep

what you need to move from one step to the

next somewhere you can see it when you are

most likely to use it.

In some instances, it makes the most sense to

keep your documents close to your

workspace.

At other times, you will fare better by placing

the items where you go when you are

procrastinating.

Need help in keeping yourself inspired and

organized at work?

Spice up your usual routine with something

special: magnetic sign holders.

They are cost-effective solution for work

schedules, reminders and events.
