Destroy Procrastination: 7 Steps to Achieving IRONCLAD Discipline
Procrastination – the act of delaying or postponing tasks – can be troubling and frustrating. There are a million reasons why you might procrastinate, but understanding the root cause is key to overcoming it. In this episode of Impact Theory, Tom Bilyeu shares 7 steps towards achieving IRONCLAD discipline, and beating procrastination for good.
Step 1: You Gotta Want It Bad Enough
The first step in overcoming procrastination is finding meaning and purpose in what you’re working towards. Decide what you want and why you want it. Once you have that clear, articulate it in a tangible way to yourself and others.
Step 2: Burnout & Laziness Look Similar
Burnout and laziness may seem similar, but they have vastly different roots. Recognize when you’re feeling burnt out and take steps to prevent it.
Step 3: Build A Solid Morning Routine
A productive day starts with a powerful morning routine. Use this routine to connect with yourself and establish a positive mindset that will carry you through the day.
Step 4: Eat to Boost Your Productivity
The food you eat can influence your productivity. Make sure you’re eating whole foods that provide your body with the nutrients it needs to function at its best.
Step 5: Optimize Your Time & Environment
Setting rules and boundaries for yourself can help you optimize your time and environment. Eliminate distractions and create a space where you feel focused.
Step 6: When You Fall Into A Rut
At some point, you may find yourself in a rut. Recognize this and take steps to switch things up. Try something new to shake up your routine and engage your mind.
Step 7: Optimize Your Evening Routine
Just like a morning routine can set you up for success, an evening routine can help you wind down and prepare for a restful night’s sleep. Establish boundaries and use this time for relaxation and introspection.
