Mary, thanks so much for being there. I'm also an (aspiring) female entrepreneur myself, and this morning I literally couldn't leave my bed due to fear. I know the reason why I procrastinate because I simply so scared that I will not be able to accomplish whatever I aim for and I'm provocative even when things go well. Obviously I just want to succeed on the first trial without iterating it. I am having hard times really. My biggest fear is that not achieving my potential because of procrastination

You are so not alone in this feeling and that paralyzing fear of starting. Recognizing where your fear comes from is the best and biggest first step. Take it one day at a time - focus on just getting up and making your bed, then brushing your teeth, making coffee and answering one email… two emails. Work your way through each step and shorten your to-do list to make it feel more manageable, recognize you can do it and celebrate yourself when you do accomplish even the small things 💖 you got this!

You’re not alone! Have you tried writing out everything first thing in the morning? Its called a brain dump and you just free flow write for three pages to help clear things out and make lists if it helps. Also try setting alarms for every 10m when you’re trying to stay on task, that way if you wander the alarm will go off and you’ll get a cue to get back on track. May be worth trying! You got this 💖

This is a really good idea. My husband and I did this diet for 3 months due to a minor health issue that totally resolved after so AIP was totally worth it for us. It was very hard to find compliant snacks on the go. I'm sure others will find this very helpful.

Thank you for this video! I'm also dealing with chronic pain and endometriosis, and definitely have unrealistic expectations for myself. But above all, your video made me realize that I don't have as well defined boundaries as I thought (even though I made some progress over the last year), so I know what t work on now <3

I'm so sorry you're dealing with this right now and I'm sending you so much love and peace 💖 boundaries are definitely hard and I've found revisiting them every year, or sooner, is helpful, especially during tougher seasons. so proud of you for prioritizing yourself and committing to putting new boundaries in place 💖

Thank you for sharing. Do you have examples for those rewards / treats you are talking about? (non-food)
@maryoforiattah18 күн бұрын
yes! I always suggest finding rewards that are specific to you and what you love. let's say you start journaling and stay consistent for two weeks, you can reward yourself with a new notebook or pens/highlighters so that experience becomes even more enjoyable. or you're prioritizing tidying up everyday and after a month of that consistency you reward yourself to a new plant for your home that you'll enjoy in your space. a few other ideas are: coffee mug after making coffee at home more, candle after prioritizing meditation, make-up bag after decluttering and organizing, placemats and table runner after eating dinner at the table instead of the tv, fun pillow cases after making your bed consistently, etc. I'm always happy to help you find a reward that is specific to your goals and likes 💖

it’s not easy to identify what the cause is but take some time, reflect and listen to your gut when you start procrastinating. write it out or share it with someone close to you and you’ll soon see what that emotion that’s holding you back is so you can start taking steps forward and break that procrastination habit. you got this!
