5 Tips to beat Procrastination

  1. Have a growth mindset: Aim for slow and steady progress. Storylines are rewritten one page at a time. The key is to improve, not to be perfect. 
  2. Journal on why exactly you are procrastinating. Sometimes we have a big cloud of uncertainty. When we write it down we gain clarity.
  3. Track your progress on a google sheet: The only difference between a professional writer and a wannabe writer is that the professional writer writes a few pages each day.
  4. Practice Meditation to see and let go distracting thoughts.
  5. Practice self-compassion, which involves being kind to yourself and asking powerful questions like: What did I already achieve? What do I like about myself? What can I do for myself today?
