This is NOT your typical anti-procrastination tip.

I’ll share more below, but first - some announcements:

• I’m hosting a free goal-setting workshop this weekend. Get on the waitlist if you want the recording, because when I host it again in Jan I’ll be charging $5+

• My life tracking course enrollment is open - use code BLACKFRIDAY for 10% off and I’ll donate an additional 10% of all profits to UNRWA (they help Palestinian refugees) starting from today up until Cyber Monday (Dec 2). Because I don’t like Black Friday consumerism mindset but still wanted to do some kind of sale

If you procrastinate, read this.

It comes from the scripts you’re so used to telling yourself.

“Just one more video.”

“I can’t do this, I’m lazy and don’t know how to start.”

But those thoughts end up influencing your actions which become your habits.

And your habits become the way you live your life…

Always pushing your goals to the future,

Even if you claim they’re important to you now.

Here’s a story to help you internalize this

I’m used to being avoidant and not communicating how I’m feeling.

Maybe it’s an eldest daughter in Asian family thing 😅 

In the past, whenever my sister got upset or stressed, I’d steer clear.

“I’m avoidant, I don’t know how to deal with this” is what I told myself.

But ever since learning how to improve my communication and relationship building skills, I reframed my thoughts.

“I’m not perfect, but I’m learning and trying my best.”

Yesterday, I had some delicious vegan food I wanted to share with my sister…

But she was upset at something else and didn’t want to talk.

When she shouted at me to leave her alone,

I caught myself thinking:

“Is everything okay? What happened? Do you want to talk about it?”

I was surprised because my whole life I’m used to thinking:

“Wow that’s mean. I won’t give you my ‘affection’ and time then, since you’re so rude.”

That’s when I felt like a completely changed person…

Someone who focuses on nurturing relationships instead of seeing them as transactional.

But this progress had to start from rewriting the scripts I tell myself.

That’s all for today! Thanks for reading ❤️ 

Kindly,

Jennifer
