Moving forward in life can take a combination of things, we can move slowly or quickly or even somewhere in between but also, we can move in circles. Making choices to enhance the process is what we should all aspire to do, not because we must, more because, why wouldn't we? Life is something we need to make the most of, and to do this we do not need to live life with procrastination and putting things off. If we take the time, we may be using it to procrastinate and put things off, to convert this to more proactive uses then we might not even need as much time to get things going. Another way to help us get going in achieving our goals is to not let ourselves get overwhelmed by thinking about how much we need to do. This can be one of the reasons why we can procrastinate, as we are scaring ourselves out of getting things done. Sometimes things are not always what we think and the reason we are not moving forward is that we are constrained by the fear that is holding us back. It can be very easy to find lots of excuses to stop us from getting going and getting things done, but it doesn't always mean they are the reasons why we are not moving on with things. A good thing to do is to take time to reflect on the reasons we are not doing something instead of just blindly following the excuses. Making things real, instead of in the denial of procrastination can often help to dissolve the fear, helping us see the situation from a calmer and more motivated viewpoint. With a clear view of the situation, we can then break the task down into more sizable chunks that will then help us get going. If the situation we are working on is a big task, then this is ultimately the best thing to do.
