Speaker 1 (00:00):
Hey everyone, Asher Blake here and welcome back to Zero
to Hero morning. I'm pumped to dive into a topic
that I know plagues almost every single one of us
at some point. Procrastination. You know that feeling when you
have this awesome project looming, a deadline approaching faster than
a speeding cheetah, but your motivation is about as high
as a deflated balloon. Yeah, we've all been there. But

(00:22):
guess what today We're not just going to talk about procrastination.
We're going to dismantle it. We're going to equip you
with some seriously powerful techniques to slay this beast and
become the unstoppable productivity machine you were born to be.
So buckle up because we're about to get real and
dive into five killer strategies that will help you conquer
procrastination once and for all. Firstly, let's talk about understanding

(00:46):
your why. Ever felt like you're spinning your wheels putting
things off even when you know they're important. Often it's
because we lack a deep connection to the why behind
our tasks. So take a moment really think about what
drives you, What are your goals? How does this task
contribute to those bigger aspirations. By connecting the dots between

(01:06):
your daily actions and your long term vision, you inject
purpose into everything you do, making it way harder to procrastinate.
Next up, let's break down those big, daunting tasks into
bite sized chunks. Ever stared at a mountain of work
and felt like running for the hills? That overwhelming feeling
is procrastination's best friend. But here's the secret. Even a

(01:28):
giant task becomes manageable when you break it down into smaller,
more achievable steps. Instead of thinking, I have to write
this entire report, think okay, I'll just outline the introduction today.
Small winds create momentum, and that momentum fuels your drive
to keep going. Now, let's talk environment. You wouldn't expect

(01:48):
a chef to bake a delicious cake in a messy kitchen. Right.
Our workspace plays a huge role in our productivity. Clutter
and distractions are procrastinations playground. So get your self a clean,
organized space where you can focus. Think calming colors, natural light,
maybe even a plant or two to bring some life
into the mix. A dedicated workspace signals your brain it's

(02:12):
time to get things done. Ever, notice how sometimes a
little friendly competition can really push you well. Leverage that.
Find an accountability buddy, someone who shares similar goals and
will keep you on track. You could even set up
a mini challenge with each other, celebrating those milestones together. Remember,
sharing the journey makes it way more fun and keeps

(02:33):
you accountable. Finally, let's talk about rewards. Celebrating your accomplishments
is not just about feeling good. It reinforces positive behavior.
When you finish a task, treat yourself to something enjoyable,
a walk in the park, a delicious snack, or even
just five minutes of guilt free scrolling on social media.
These small rewards keep you motivated and make tackling those

(02:56):
tasks feel less like a chore. Think about that time
you or putting off a big project, maybe that dreaded
presentation at work, or cleaning out your closet. We've all
been there. What were the thoughts going through your head?
Were you telling yourself I'll do it later, It's not
that important right now, I need to take a break first.
Sound familiar. Those are classic procrastination tactics. But remember we

(03:19):
talked about understanding your why. How did that project align
with your goals. If it was crucial for your career
growth or simply making your life easier, wouldn't it be
worth tackling head on. Let's recap what we covered today.
We learned to connect our tasks with a deeper purpose,
break down those overwhelming projects into manageable steps, create an
environment that foster's focus. Find accountability partners to keep us

(03:42):
on track, and reward ourselves for those victories along the way.
So go out there and conquer procrastination. Remember you are
capable of amazing things. Don't let fear or doubt hold
you back. Every small step forward is a win. And hey,
if you ever need a little extra mode, come back
to zero to Hero morning your daily dose of inspiration

(04:04):
