00:00:07
then to the next day and the next.
00:00:10
This is called procrastination.
00:00:12
Is it a calamity?
00:00:13
Is it a disease?
00:00:14
Is it reversible?
00:00:17
we will see the importance of understanding why
00:00:20
we procrastinate such and such a task.
00:00:23
Then we will observe how procrastination is a war of aspect and clans within us.
00:00:29
May the strongest win.
00:00:31
Let's start with the main question to
00:00:34
ask yourself when you catch yourself procrastinating.
00:00:37
Why am I procrastinating this task?
00:00:40
Because there's procrastination and procrastination.
00:00:44
Putting all your eggs in the same basket by establishing the
00:00:48
same strategy for any procrastinated task is the most common error.
00:00:53
You're putting off a phone call with a client.
00:00:56
Because you're afraid they'll criticise you,
00:00:59
because you don't know what to say,
00:01:01
because you don't know how to solve the issue they talk to you about,
00:01:05
because this client bores you,
00:01:07
because you don't see the point in calling them,
00:01:10
because you hate talking on the phone,
00:01:12
because you're tired.
00:01:14
Make a list of everything you're procrastinating
00:01:18
and identify the real reasons why you're putting
00:01:21
off this task of calling the client.
00:01:25
you can work on your fear.
00:01:27
If it's the fact you don't know what to say,
00:01:29
work on your speech.
00:01:31
If it's because you don't know how to solve the problem,
00:01:34
you can at least think of a few options.
00:01:37
If it's because they bore you,
00:01:39
then you'll have to refer to my second video about procrastination.
00:01:46
I am procrastinating my client's call because I don't have time.
00:01:51
You had enough time to do many things that day.
00:01:55
OECD members spend an average of 1 hour 42 minutes a day on the phone,
00:02:01
according to a study published in 2018.
00:02:06
they spend 600 hours a year on social networks.
00:02:10
You found something else to do,
00:02:12
that's for sure,
00:02:13
which means that the lack of time is not the real problem.
00:02:17
Why didn't you have the time for this task,
00:02:21
tidying up your office?
00:02:23
This task you've been delaying for days.
00:02:26
Don't tell me either because I'm lazy or because I lack the courage.
00:02:31
There is no room for guilt here.
00:02:33
No one is in the dock.
00:02:35
Let's get out of this binary vision saying.
00:02:38
That it's wrong to procrastinate.
00:02:40
Free yourself from guilt before finishing this video.
00:02:44
Guilt is not welcome here.
00:02:46
You are a human being with infinite worth and good reasons to procrastinate.
00:02:52
That's why we are asking ourselves why.
00:02:55
Why am I procrastinating this task or another?
00:03:00
We usually procrastinate tasks because they're unpleasant to us,
00:03:04
because they're boring,
00:03:05
because they're not motivating enough,
00:03:07
because they're not very interesting,
00:03:09
or because they seem difficult,
00:03:11
or we don't know how to handle them or where to start.
00:03:16
The strategy to get out of procrastination will not
00:03:20
always be the same for all these reasons.
00:03:23
That is why the first step
00:03:25
is to genuinely ask yourself,
00:03:28
why am I procrastinating this task.
00:03:32
To go on with this necessary step of introspection,
00:03:36
there are two more questions.
00:03:38
The next question,
00:03:40
what do I get if this doesn't get done?
00:03:42
What do I get if this file is not finished?
00:03:46
What do I get if I don't call my mother?
00:03:48
What do I get if I don't ask for that raise?
00:03:52
Dig deeper to find answers,
00:03:54
even if they seem far fetched.
00:03:57
Always be free of guilt.
00:03:59
Maybe you'll discover false reasons that will make you smile
00:04:03
and other very good reasons,
00:04:05
and you'll tell yourself you did well to procrastinate.
00:04:09
Because it wasn't the right time to act
00:04:12
or that it wasn't the right thing to do
00:04:14
or there is something else to do before.
00:04:19
What do I have to lose
00:04:20
if this task that I've been procrastinating for days is performed.
00:04:27
because it may be that you're postponing a
00:04:29
task because you unconsciously fear its outcome.
00:04:33
What am I risking if I start to be coached?
00:04:36
I'm risking my life getting turned upside down.
00:04:39
Better to delay it,
00:04:41
What am I risking if I send my CV having to change jobs?
00:04:46
What am I risking if I launch a business,
00:04:49
By understanding the risk,
00:04:52
you'll understand why a part of you has been keeping you in procrastination.
00:04:57
And now that you can see more clearly
00:05:00
what fear prevented you from acting,
00:05:02
are you ready to face this risk,
00:05:05
and what can you do to minimise it?
00:05:09
these three key questions,
00:05:12
why am I procrastinating this task?
00:05:14
What do I get if it doesn't get done?
00:05:16
What do I risk by getting it done?
00:05:19
your to do list will change.
00:05:22
Procrastination is a war between some aspects within us.
00:05:27
is likely to be endless if you don't put the spotlight
00:05:31
on what's behind the scenes to see the main actors.
00:05:36
Sometimes there are only two actors.
00:05:38
An aspect of us is saying you have to call this client.
00:05:43
I don't want to.
00:05:44
Without the master in you,
00:05:47
the stronger of these two will win.
00:05:50
Sometimes there are many more aspects at stake
00:05:53
which makes the untangling much more complicated.
00:05:57
These aspects form clans.
00:06:02
there are 3 aspects,
00:06:06
You have to call your client.
00:06:08
My boss will be all over me if I don't.
00:06:10
I can get a raise if I call the client.
00:06:13
In the against clan there are 5 aspects and 5 discourses.
00:06:18
I do not want to call the client.
00:06:21
I do not know how to tackle this delicate subject.
00:06:24
I don't see any point in calling the client.
00:06:27
I have other calls to make.
00:06:29
and what if I went for a coffee?
00:06:31
Which clan will win,
00:06:34
the pro cla or the against clan?
00:06:37
If you're clear on the aspects at stake
00:06:40
and what they whisper in your ear,
00:06:42
you will not let yourself be manipulated by them,
00:06:46
and you will gain clarity.
00:06:48
Look into your corps for the master within you,
00:06:52
the one who makes the decisions,
00:06:54
the captain of the ship,
00:06:55
the one who says I choose.
00:06:58
So what does the master choose?
00:07:02
When you are in your mastery,
00:07:04
your sovereignty,
00:07:05
what will you decide?
00:07:07
Do you think your procrastination was in order after all,
00:07:10
and do you decide not to make that call to your client?
00:07:14
The master in you
00:07:16
will perhaps delegate or postpone the call.
00:07:19
Send them an email,
00:07:21
meet them in person,
00:07:22
or break the contract.
00:07:25
and then own it and trust yourself.
00:07:27
On the contrary.
00:07:29
Did the master in you choose to call the client and therefore will
00:07:33
look for the right strategies to overcome
00:07:35
the hindrances of the procrastinator's clan.
00:07:39
We will talk about these strategies in another video.
00:07:42
The master within you does not know the procrastination label.
00:07:48
He makes choices every day and owns them.
00:07:52
The choice of doing or not doing.
00:07:55
He doesn't do anything he doesn't want to do now.
00:07:58
He does what is important to himself or he makes someone else do it,
