Summary: Today we are going to talk about the effects of procrastination in our lives. The phenomena of procrastination is what separates outstanding performance from mediocre performance. Have you ever considered that not succeeding at something important to you... ... even for a REALLY good reason... ... is not the same as achieving your goal? Procrastination takes a toll on virtually every aspect of our lives. It not only threatens our health, but it also prevents us from achieving personal, financial, and career goals that are well within our reach. Think about the promises you’ve made to yourself in the past. Of all the promises and commitments you have made to yourself, how many have you kept? Have you ever considered the cost of poor follow through in your life? Think about a goal that you have failed to meet in the past. Was your failure to follow through or procrastination a by-product of the fact that you were really okay with the way things were to begin with? Or does the poor follow through or procrastination bother you? Does the knowledge that you didn’t follow through with your goals eat you up inside because you know you aren’t doing what you need to do to get the result you say you want? Successful people know you can have whatever level of success you desire and the quality of life you truly want by making some adjustments to the way you are currently operating in your professional and personal life. Aim for what you want each and every day!
