The reason why most people procrastinate is because the task they set for themselves is enough to kill 10 People at a time. So they find theirselves postponing and postponing their goals until they no longer become achievable.

Therefore there is need to breakdown your goals or tasks so that you can easily achieve them. It is better to achieve the goal in 2 months while doing it daily than to set yourself to do it in 1 week and seeing yourself not been able to start in even in 5months.

 

4. Technology

Everyone has conscience and if you are not using it, then you might never achieve anything in this life. It comes to a time you have to tell yourself the simple truth that you have been wasting time and not achieving your targets as well as getting yourself to actually achieve them.

 

The truth is that most times, only you yourself can tell yourself the truth because people might not even know what’s going on in your life. They only know what you tell them. Therefore ensure you learn to speak the truth to yourself especially when you no longer understand why your life is not going the way you planned it.

Like I have said Earlier, the only person that can motivate you is you. Please don’t get me wrong, other people can but if you refuse to attend to their advice, then there is nothing they can do. it always boils down to you.
