This sounds just like the thought exercise I learned in Cognitive Behavioral Therapy. After practicing it for 3 months I stopped having anxiety attacks.

Miss Alexis, I want you to save this comment for when it gets tricky: You. Are. KILLING. This. KZbin Content Creator. Gig. KILLING IT. Dead. Thanks for all you do. I appreciate the help. BTW, got the planner. Two words: Life changing.

I always look forward to your new videos! Thanks for overcoming the resistance 😊

💡The source of procrastination is resistance. Delve deep within to find the emotion behind the resistance & there lies our motivation. Thank you Alexis.

Once I finally start and get going on a drawing I wonder why I did not start earlier. What I am learning from this... just get started.

[@acea5683]

Good stuff. The way you teach really makes it easy to understand.

I'm a teacher and I just absolutely hate grading. They just got their report cards for the first semester and you know what..? There are still some papers to grade from the semester they just got their report cards for. I just can't stand it. The pile is getting bigger and bigger and it just gets worse and worse. Ugh.

Done is better than perfect.

Great video. One tip don’t look at the comments section. You are making videos your comment section is not.

[@Justanothertgrt]

Another great little piece of insight presented in such a concise way. Thanks for putting in the effort to share this!

[@joshhiggins8775]

Really needed to see this video, Thanks !!!

I like your cat backpack, though. When I'm tempted to hit that snooze button on anything, I tell myself, "It's not going to get any easier."

[@BreezyYung]

This was dope Thank you

[@drb3353]

The question that comes up for me is what is the difference between a ritual and a constraint?

[@timetraveler3n1]

Best video!

[@zerpdog]

Now I want a cat backpack 😊

[@mellorin44]

how do you deal with wanting istant gratification, like the draft is hard and it all happens prettily in your head anyway so you just drop the whole project again, maybe searching for a "better one"
