#7 Procrastination Is Not Bad — MA Maegan Megginson Sex Therapist

 

“We're conditioned to be productivity robots”

 -Maegan Megginson 

 

Why It Feels So Bad To Procrastinate?

It starts in elementary school. We're taught that self-sufficiency and hard work are the ultimate signs of success.⁠
⁠


This creates a bunch of stressed out adults who beat themselves up for not doing every single thing that needs to get done to move our business and life forward.⁠
⁠


The False Shame In Procrastination

Until recently, I felt a lot of shame and stress whenever I procrastinated.⁠
⁠


Shame because I wasn't doing what I was supposed to be doing.⁠
⁠


Stress because I knew the thing was there just waiting for my time and attention. Uugghhh.⁠
⁠


What Procrastination Says About You

Then I started reframing procrastination as an indicator that the task needs to be done by SOMEONE ELSE!

⁠
⁠
It doesn't say anything bad about me as a person and it doesn't need to hang over me like a cloud of doom for the next three months...⁠
⁠


I just need to find the right person (or software) to do the task for me!⁠
⁠


Why Love Your Procrastinating Self

Or I need to reevaluate if it's a thing I want to continue doing.

Why ⁠
⁠
I no longer believe I have to do work I don't enjoy doing. My procrastinating habits help me see exactly what I don't enjoy doing.

⁠
⁠
So basically, procrastination is a helpful tool in my business toolkit.

I now love my procrastinating self!

Food For Thought

⁠
What would be different in your life if you started embracing procrastination and committed to asking for help?
