Have you ever thought if only you didn't procrastinate you'd be happier, more successful and make more money?
What if procrastinating wasn't what you thought it was? Ask yourself these questions and see what shows up for you.
1. Ask a question: 'What's right about me 'not completing tasks' that I'm not getting?'
How often have you been told that you must finish what you've started, otherwise you're a no good failure? Have you bought this as real? Just because someone says this about you, does it make it true?
Are you choosing not to complete some things because you become aware that they are no longer required? Or that there are other things you'd prefer to create that would be a greater contribution to you, your life and others in your life?
Have you decided you're no good or a failure because you're not meeting other people's expectations? Will you ever truly meet other people's expectations? No. So you might give that up as a target.
What if you could be you and change the world? Sound lighter and more fun? I thought so.
So who are you really? Do you even know? How do you find out? Read on.
2. Ask more questions: "what's right about me that I'm not getting?"
Just because someone tells you you're no good, or you don't do things the way they do them, does that mean you're no good?
What if you were simply different? And what if you have been unable or unwilling to see the wonderful difference you truly are?
What if you stopped trying to operate from within other people's parameters (too slow? too boring? too nonsensical?) and instead know and use the ones that work best for you?
Often people do things 'badly' simply because they are bored. How efficient and energetic are you when you are inspired by something or find it fun?
3. Do you devalue you?
How many people devalue the things that they do most easily, assuming everyone else can do them too. Is this true?
Ask yourself: "what can I do with such ease that I think it has no value?" and "what inspires me, excites me and empowers me?"
Find those things, play with them, and THEN see whether you don't work all day with a smile on your face.
Success and money? If you're doing something you love, well, and with ease, do you think money won't come to the party? Oh yes it will.
And be aware, you can always still CHOOSE to leave things 'unfinished' and move on to the next if you are aware that that is what is required. Maybe you're moving on to the next level of creation and innovation by following the energy?
Does energy ever complete? No. It continues and transforms. So what if that was your way of being?
Would you be willing to give up the idea of needing to 'complete' anything, in favour of contributing to transformation into something greater?
These are simple, effective tools that have been used by many people with phenomenal results. Please have no expectation about what they mean or what they will bring.
Use them with the lightness of enjoying whatever you love to do. Take notice of what shows up. And let me know! I'd love to hear from you.
