I used to be a procrastinator to the core. On ALL things. Telling myself it would just be easier to do it later. LIES. Mainly because when I put things off, I couldn't fully relax until I did whatever it was I was putting off.
And when I had something hard to do, or something I didn't really know how to do, my procrastination would intensify. Just avoiding and avoiding and avoiding. Living with a low-grade level of unnecessary anxiety that could have easily been resolved if only I'd stopped avoiding.
While I've figured out that doing the hard things are never as bad as I think they're going to be, I'm still guilty every now and then. But I BS you not, I now know that when I get into the hard thing I was avoiding, I learn something useful, feel accomplished, relaxed and sometimes I actually have a little fun doing it.
