Some people are great to think and make plans to do what they want, but less well to these ingenious projects. You may have a mental list of all the things you do or think that to take care of you, but you tend to put off later (and later never happens). Thought is great, but thinking is even greater when combined with actions.


Here are some tips on how to get from thinking to take action at:





Make it fun. Playing music at the same time, or make the activity in a game. Making it fun can be particularly useful if the thing you want to do is rather boring. Get someone else to do the job with you, because everything is usually easier when you have company. If there is more than one of you are, you can restore the task in a fun competition.


Make it a challenge. If your job is to weed the garden, for example, you could yourself a point for each square that you are ready, and try to collect as many points as possible. Compete against yourself and try your personal record in the number of points per hour break!


Decide what you will do after you are done. Once you're done, you deserve to do something nice as a reward. eat an ice cream, a nap, go for a refreshing walk or do anything else that you are motivated to do the job as quickly as possible.


Think about why you want to get the job done. If you are procrastinating, the issue could be given that the motivation for the task you began on, is missing. You may have forgotten why it is that you to want to do it. Write a list of all the reasons why you complete this task. Once you start thinking about those reasons if you notice your motivation again rushing his thinking.


Tell someone that you do it. You are responsible for someone there is a much higher probability that you get your job done. Call your friend and tell him / her that you do X will today. They move, if you then do not feel to do it. If you dare to go that one step further, tell your friend call you back later to check whether it is the task completed or not. You can even tell him / her to punish you in any way, if you do not do the job. You could for example make the agreement if you do not your task completed by tomorrow morning you take your friend for dinner.


Write a list of "to do" and go over the elements, as it completely. This is great if you have to do several different tasks, or if your task involves several steps. If you have a clear list and cross the things you have already done, you will track your progress to see more clearly and that will motivate you to continue.


A deadline set for the work of the task. If you need something that can take a long time and that makes you so intimidated that you do not want to start, you can be slow, want to set to work on it. One might decide, for example, for an hour of work. Set a timer, so you know when the time is up. Stay focused and so do a lot as you can within the hour.


Getting Things Done, you feel competent, efficient, and it helps you to increase your self-esteem. Not Getting Things Done, on the other hand, makes you feel bad about themselves and that's not good for your self-esteem.
