Procrastination
© 2010 Brady Gilchrist

worth vanquishing.

things that could light up your
potential.

Don’t talk...Do!


If I made T-shirts
this would be
the one.
Factoid




“Procrastination is about
not having projects in your
life that really reflect your
goals”
~Timothy A. Pychyl
We are going to
attack this
monster for one
reason.
We are going to
attack this
monster for one
reason.
We want to amplify
those things in life
that give us the
greatest satisfaction.
If someone was
videotaping you
everyday would
you be proud of
the story?
If you continue
doing exactly
what you are
doing right now
where would you
be in five years?
The secret is simple.
Nothing happens without
hard work. The lazy don’t
succeed.
Have you ever
spent more time
worrying about a
task than it took
to do the task?
We all have. It’s incredibly silly.
Focus and you
will achieve.
    
“Success is not a place at
which one arrives but
rather the spirit with
which one undertakes and
continues the journey.”
             ~Alfred Nobel
I knew that to address the problem I needed
to come up with a very simple system that I
could stick with.



  Know            Plan           Push


KPP is way to focus your attention on why
you want to do something, when to do it and
what to do when the going gets tough.
Know          Plan        Push

 Understand     Prepare   Make it so.
What and Why   the when
Know   Plan   Push
Nothing is so fatiguing as
the eternal hanging on of
an uncompleted task. 
~William James
Clear your head.
Relax and imagine
for a moment what
we are about to do.
Anxiety can
be a form of
radar that
focuses your
attention.
Do you know
what is nagging
you or causing
you to lose
sleep?
Write those
things down.
What things do you
strive to accomplish
that make you feel
great. Write them
down.
We need to
convert both the
nags and greats
into tasks.
A task is simply an
agreement with yourself
to see something
completed.
A finished task is
permission to keep
moving.
The trick with a task
is that you always
need to know when
it’s done.
Things without end
never end...
Think of tasks
as an inventory
of steps that
take you to
your desires.
This inventory
and all the
reasons for it
define the Know.
A well reasoned
inventory of tasks
that takes you
towards personal or
career wins is the
first step to wiping
out procrastination.
I keep my life
                     organized using
                     Toodledo.
It’s a web based approach
worth taking a look at.
Your organization system is a tool not a project.
Try and keep it simple. Use the tools that work
best for you.
Know   Plan   Push
You alwaysis

never found.
 of it.
Can you put
your tasks into
categories?
Sometimes knowing
where a task has
relevance makes all
the difference in
getting it done.
Try these.
1. Specific work commitments
2. Building great relationships
3. Keeping your promises
4. Managing life
5. Health
6. Due dates
7. Personal growth
Somethings will always feel more
important than others. Those that do,
usually are and should become high
priority.
All tasks
need a
duration.
The duration is the magic key that gets
them a special place on your calendar.
BTW You can manage all of this in Toodledo easily.
Time to craft
a playbook.
Getting to the moon means
     being on schedule. Getting
     your own personal moon-
     walk requires the same!


Apollo 12 Flight Schedule
When I’m crunching through
things I divide my tasks up

 30:15:5
into 30 minute, 15 minute and
5 minute chunks.
It lets me blast through the small
stuff and keep the big stuff in
manageable perspective.
                               3M
Fill the calendar up.
Think of this as a treasure
map not a calendar.
This is the place where your
inventory of tasks turns into
your life.
No plan.
No point.
Knowing how long it takes
you to finish things is an art.
The more you get done the
better you will be at
estimating the perfect time.
Don’t be afraid to tweak your schedule
based on how you are doing. Don’t punish
yourself if you start over enthusiastically.
Running races is
easier when you
know where the
finish line is.
Everything you do should have
an identifiable conclusion.
Know   Plan   Push
The greatest glory in
living lies not in never
falling, but in rising every
time we fall.
Nelson Mandela
The procrastination
beast is going to
mess with you.
Mess right back.
The procrastination
beast is going to
mess with you.
Mess right back.
Multitasking
is a Myth
Getting back on track can take a long time
once you divert. Don’t multitask. Your
brain is not built for it.
That wonderful
feeling of flowing
through a task is
not compatible
with multitasking.
Trust me on this one. :-)
The
Concentration
Arts.
Techniques to tame the beast.
1.
Turn down the noise
and zone into the
moment. I personally
use classical music to
focus the attention.
2.
Only the task at hand
should be your focus.
Other stuff not central
to the task will just
screw up your ability to
focus.
3.
A 60 Second mental
projection of what the
next hour will bring can
work wonders.
If it works for Olympians it should work for
you.
4.
Your calendar is your
treasure map. Follow it.
Secret weapons.




I makes me the clock. It works.
It
   race appreciate how valuable time can be.
                                       3M
5.
If your brain
stops working.
Stop working.
Never take a break longer than it would take to
complete the task. Do something productive.
6.
Merlin’s Famous
procrastination
push.
10 minutes of effort, 2 minutes of break,
repeated 5 times in an hour = lots done.
7.
Preform a few
minutes of
breathing
exercises.
Put some more O2 where it counts.
8.
Just get on
with it.
Seriously, sometimes you just
need to do the work.
You are getting
close!
 Know               Plan             Push

If you have faith in your dreams and strength
in your will, there is not a mountain you can’t
climb.
Thanks for taking the time. I
hope you got a kick out of this
and hopefully some useful
ideas.
