Personal Reflexion on Procrastination

If I were brutally honest, I procrastinate very often.

Because I know, I will eventually do it at some later point during the day.

I do not know if it because I am inherently lazy.

Or like to subconscious self-sabotage my actions.

If I live my routinely, the amount of procrastination decreases significantly, but my life becomes then also repetitive.

That’s why nowadays I try to find the middle road.

I try to have principles instead of routines.

Currently, I have some daily routines:

• Writing this blog
• Doing Wim Hof Breathing
• Posting a self-made illustration Instagram
• Reading some pages of a book

Some weekly routines:

• At least two or three Yoga group classes or self-practice
• Playing Chess or Hearthstone
• Hanging out with friends or family

My principles:

• Do things without expecting any returns; you are not in control of the outcomes of your actions.
• Accept yourself by accepting the world.
• Everything everyone else does or says about you has nothing to do with you — it is just a reflection of their current state.

My procrastination list:

• Should make an appoint for my eyes.
• Should research my freelancer track.
• Should bring my bag to a repair shop.
• Should vacuum my room.
• Should decide which book I should finish first.
• Should mediate for 40 min.

Today, I have been playing too much Hearthstone. But I am doing the 30-day blog challenge. So I had to write something.

This blogpost is #11 of the 30day blog challenge.
