Procrastination Proof: Never Get Stuck Again

Summary

THIS WILL BE EASY.

Before I tell you the system that beats procrastination, I need to assure you, this is easy.

An influencer recently told me that I should start the day with a cold shower because it tells my brain I can survive difficult things. So does slamming my hand in a car door, but that seems like a dumb way to start the day.

Life is preset to hard. Life’s default is challenging. Why would we use any system that makes it harder?

If you’re worried it will take a newfound level of willpower, persistence, or sacrifice to beat procrastination, I assure you it won’t. As I’ll say a dozen times in this book, procrastination isn’t a laziness problem. Therefore, hard work won’t fix it any more than brushing your teeth would fix a broken arm. You don’t need to try harder. You need a completely different system, a system that works just as well on the days you have zero willpower as it does on the days you’re firing on all cylinders.

I found that system. You will too.
