Ahhh
procrastination, that foggy state of mind where you feel you have limitless
tomorrows to get things done, and then suddenly…d’oh! You find yourself
overwhelmed or staring down a deadline in a panic. This week is all about moving
through the state of procrastination and on to clearing things off your plate that
may have been hanging around in the ethers a little too long. I like that this
week’s message also speaks of letting go of those things that maybe we
shouldn’t have committed to in the first place.
So
my challenge to you this week is to examine where you might be lagging on taking
action, especially if it’s something that you really want to do. If you have
multiple lingering items, then prioritize and focus on the top of the list.
That way you won’t overwhelm yourself and well, you know, procrastinate.
Hey
ho, let’s go!
With
Love.

Focus
Focus on completion or release
of projects and tasks that have been lingering in procrastination. Doing so
prior to setting new intentions will bring a sense of accomplishment and create
better focus and attention with future endeavors.

This week’s question:
Q: How can we better recognize
those things that need to be released instead of completed?
A.
It is to release the doing of that which no longer serves your best interests
or wellbeing, or that of one who may be dependent on you. If you are finding it
difficult to move a project or task toward completion – simply out of avoidance
– you may ask yourself what is holding you in a state of procrastination. Many
times this occurs out of fear, or complacency, or rebelliousness, or a general
lack of belief in one’s abilities. It is important to recognize this so you may
push through toward completion. If a task or project is being imposed upon you
by another’s belief structure that is not aligned with yours, then it is not in
your best interests to continue to move forward with it. You may wish to
examine why you allow this individual to hold power over your actions. It is
important to remember that each moment of life is a series of choices. Choices
made out of a desire for greater happiness and wellbeing for yourself and
society as a whole will lead to a more fulfilling life.
