Procrastination is a habit and one I’ve struggled with. However I’ve learned that when I want to procrastinate I’m able to go with it and have replaced some of the activities I’ve done in the past like renting a DVD (or 10) with meditation. Letting go of some troubling thoughts then makes way for new ones.

One of my favourite posts. It is important to understand what you know other wise it become useless knowledge. and dealing with procrastination really helps. You discover a lot more than just curing yourself from continuous delays.

One of the things I think you missed that is very important to overcoming procrastination is discipline. Without discipline you’ll never be able to start a habit. You made an excellent point about writing what you have a passion for. You’re less likely to procrastinate if its a task that you enjoy. Great post

Great post. I have suffered procrastination many times. I find it is good to set goals, and sometimes step away from your blog for a while. Then you can start fresh, and have your motivation again.

Sometimes procrastination gets hold of me too and I feel that I have reached the end of my blogging career. Luckily, reading few blogs such as this gets me in the right frame of mind in no time.

@ Farrhad – Oh ruin you it can, so badly too =P Just like you said that the sooner you tackle the problem the more likely you are to getting over it.

@ Dalirin – Hmm that’s interesting, when your overwhelmed. Even though I haven’t experienced that side of it, apparently someone people go over the moon with a new idea or whatever and never end up doing it, instead just think about it. That’s pretty unfortunate for them

@ Robby G – Well said Robby, it’s the mysteries of Blogging – but like I’ve said you only get out, in ratio to what you put in

Procrastination happens to everyone doing anything, not only blogging.
I have several assignments a month at work, and I always tell myself I’d do it later and leave it to later than I should

These are some great tips to help prevent that!

The thing about blogging that may get you down is not seeing results right away. At a 9-5 you get your paycheck no matter what. Here you’ve really gotta push yourself. Sit down and write even though you don’t think you have an idea. It’ll come, it’s all a matter of time. Blogging on what you’re passionate about is essential though! Cheers!
