I am studying Law and I have been putting off watching Public Law lectures for 3 weeks now! Because I struggle to comprehend them as soon as I heard ' the treasure you seek is hidden in the work you're avoiding' my whole mindset changed and I thought to myself, how true!!

Jim Kwik my favorite human being

I was listening to a podcast that said, “it’s important to live life by design rather than emotion. Basically, sticking to a routine is what allows us to be the healthiest version of ourselves (especially when you're fighting these demons ex. OCD for me). I made the most healthy+lasting changes in my life when I began practising mediocre consistency. Now I try to put in consistent 40-60% effort into my habits (ex. journaling/working out) - to make sure I do it I began recording it and posting it on my youtube channel. Because historically I have a habit of going too hard, not being able to sustain the Herculean effort, giving up and hating myself. So now I’m trying to give a small-ish, consistent mediocre effort everyday. And its crazy how it adds up.

Very clever! "Write in the comments one thing you've been procrastinating on and what you're going to do about it" - isn't that going to commit us (in writing too!) to take the action? It's a public statement that could be read by others, so it sets up a commitment to do it. Thank you so much, Jim. I have several important issues I've been procrastinating on and this will help me to move forward. A great, actionable video with no "filler" material or waste. That makes for such a good investment of my time.

Thank you for the amazing content Jim, all the way from South Africa

My favourite point procrastinate procrastinating 😁

I am reviewing for my board exam and i find myself always putting it off and do other things, then i become anxious about it and do other things. It's an endless cycle. Thanks for this, Jim!

I'm going to stop procrastinating on my self-learning and career improvement. I loved the tiny habits method and plan to use it frequently. Best of luck everyone!

I always procastinate making important phone calls (which my mother really wants me to do), because I am always scared I will say something wrong. Who cares anyways about what I say lol... I guess that is my way to overcome procrastinating this: caring less about what others (negatively) think about me. Thank you for your video Jim!

Thank you Jim. I have just come across this video on Procrastination. Sincerely grateful. Chris

I’m going to open one box. I’ve been procrastinating on unpacking items from my parents’ home, since they’ve both passed away. Thank you Jim!

Very useful! Thank you very much!

Thnx Jim.

Rich resource. Moving and unpacking. Need to complete. 9:41

Thank you for this!

Thank you for making this video

When I listening to your podcasts I feel how special you are and how much information you share with us. You are amazing!

Your voice is so calming and empowering at the same time.

I've been procrastinating over a proofreading course I've been taking for over 4 years. The course can be completed in as little as 3 months, but never let someone with ADHD roam free with zero deadlines (the course is designed to be done in your own time bc it's a brand new skill set and everyone is different in how long it will take to figure it out. Something I only realized recently.) School has been the biggest albatross around my neck and I've punished myself for not doing my work by not reading for fun, bc I knew that if I had the time and will to enjoy a book, then I should be reading for school. This only led to mental wreck and ruin, which I realized far too late. I dug myself into a deep hole, and I am now grasping the rope and slowly pulling myself out. As to what I'm going to do about this: I have set a reminder for noon everyday to turn on my iPad and open the app I use for school. That's my micro-commitment. I know that if I do that, I will begin to read and correct my practice transcript. I won't be beaten by this course. I've failed two midterm attempts, so I've been very discouraged recently, which has tempted me into procrastination again. This time though, I am going to defeat this. I am going to keep working and I am going to finish this. My why is all the way over in Sweden, waiting and cheering me on. He deserves this, and so do I.

Thanks a lot for this video!

I loved this

Appreciate your work sir👍

Excellent!!

I will totally watch this, tomorrow.

Thank you. I was procrastinating for too long about painting my verandah grills. I used the no 6. I went ahead and recruited a painter to get the job done this Saturday! Thank you.

You are amazing!

I procrastinate most things but I feel after watching this video things will change. thank you

Thank you so much Jim. It was so helpful. I have been fighting with procrastination from so long. I would use these 6 steps to defeat it and be more productive. Your ideas are always fascinating and powerful. Keep motivating millions of people like me. Thanks again.

I have been putting off a work related task. I plan to use the "start somewhere" I will do this TODAY and i will schedule the rest of the week. Thank you Jim I find you very helpful!

I liked the recap at the end.

Procrastination is my single biggest problem 😢 i understand everything,read ,learn but there is no execution thanks Jim sir

I'm going to be better at sticking to my plans. Starting with writing down my first plan now.

Thanks Jim, My procrastinating is the work I need to get done, stuck in overload, but still see other opportunities are that golden 🔑 .....🤔🙃😉

So timely 🙏🏽! Do you have any advice or videos on ADHD and can’t take my meds.

I have been procrastinating for the past few days to wake up early in the morning and exercise but from now on I am going to do things to get done on time. Thank you, Jim.

Thank you man. Working out read and make phone calls

Getting my digital product on the market.

Studying is one of the actions I've really been putting off ever since I got to both basic and second cycle. However, I'm going out these guidelines to work and focus as I'm supposed to be

I have a restricted license with a breathilizer, and I’ve been eligible to do the process for 3 years now. Covid didn’t help but still I’ve been procrastinating. I find that I think about what I need to do when I’m in no position to do those things at the moment but when I have time I’m not even thinking about it. I’ve begin to take little steps like you say. I plan on continuing the momentum

Thank you, Jim! Whenever I feel reluctant to text people about something, I just imagine throwing a ball to them by typing, "Hello, (name)! How are you doing?" then copy and paste it (with different names), and throw the ball to the others. I don't want to keep the "ball". When they throw the ball back at me, I throw it back to them. And it's done. 😁

Thank you soo much sir for this wonderful ways to overcome procrastination I will apply (taking micro steps) 😄

I've been procrastinating all my life never got to finish the things that i like procrastinating can become a habit of a lifetime

This is so helpful I usually put off my French classes 😱

I've been meaning to freelance my vocals to anybody needing a singer/songwriter, but everytime I have to record showcasing videos of my talent i revert to my detrimental defalt routenine. Starting in my case would be learning songs that are perfect for a preview (for the international community) of my voice and recording videos to upload on freelance platforms. This is Where my treasure is and I'm not putting it off anymore

Empecé tarde un curso para la Mejor Universidad de mi País, tengo mucho con que ponerme al corriente. Pero entre lo emocional que eso conlleva sueño procrastinar bastante, la cosa es que tengo tiempo, solo tengo que aprovecharlo, no verlo simplemente pasar. Tengo dudas pero en el fondo se que es Muy posible lograrlo, y eso también me aterra y es por eso que debo hacerlo. No dejar el tiempo pasar es lo que haré, voy a aprovechar cada hora y cada momento no solo estudiando si no también logrando que mi vida este equilibrada para que lo que estudie sea provechoso, pero no perder más tiempo, si ya me organize, entonces me esforzaré para seguir al pie de la letra esa organización aún con todo el trabajo extra que eso involucre solo al principio. Lo voy a dejar Todo.

Making a phone call. I will do it today!

I usually use to put off my daily targets but from now l am gonna follow calender and set deadlines for my work

Thanks! Is there a concept around the phenomenon of procrastination that suggests the more stuff you have on your plate, the more likely you are to procrastinate on all of them. I often feel like the more I need to do, more likely I am to not do any of it lol. Like building a sink full of dishes, or a pile of laundry, etc.

I finished my master’s degree recently and I’m in the job hunt phase now. It’s overwhelming and I often end up doubting myself, worrying about outcomes, and eventually, just procrastinating the application process which makes me feel even worse about myself! Thank you for the video. I plan to start implementing some of the steps starting today. Especially using my calendar to plan my daily activities!

Buying a new truck is overwhelming because I don't know anything about them. It's a big purchase and I'm fearful I'm going to make the wrong decision so I don't even want to look. It's in my planner but I avoid it. Today I will look at just one truck. If it produces nothing, I will have at least done something.

I stopped gyming in 2009, and want to start again. But I have to start slow, I was sick for years, and my body is still weak.

Jim...I need help. I was hit by a car and I have brain damage. It's nearly like having dementia. But strangely, I am in 3 schools and on the honor roll. I have just taken an exam that requires 6 months of study and I passed in 5 days. I find it difficult to recall the information and/or start the projects. I am an older student btw. My doc said the best thing I can do is to learn. Learn. Learn. To rebuild those neuro pathways. It's just starting....

I procrastinated watching this video by adding it to my “Save to Watch Later” playlist 😂
