What’s more, 80-95% of college students now procrastinate, with 50% of them doing it consistently and problematically.Those statistics should make it vividly clear that procrastination is a very real problem.

Procrastination is a lie.Why? Because contrary to popular belief it is NOT about laziness or willpower, but something else entirely.What it really is, is an internal battle against uncomfortable emotions. We’ve been told it’s a “time” problem. But in reality, what it is is an “emotion” problem.It's our desire to avoid pain and fear that causes procrastination. And the key to overcoming it is not a matter of willpower but a shift in perspective, moving from a mindset of self-blame to one of acknowledgement, understanding, and action. By acknowledging the fear, breaking down overwhelming tasks, focusing on small starts, and practicing self-compassion, you can fundamentally reprogram your relationship with procrastination.Want to learn more about procrastination, including the 3 big reasons why we do it, and 5 ways in which you can effectively deal with it?
