YOU CHANGED UR CITY TO...Procaati-nation....
You know Anshie...
Its fear that drives us to procrastinate by viciously trapping us from
taking action.
It’s as if we’re silently voicing to ourselves: “I don’t want to go
Papa’s way, because I fear that I’ll do a bad job.”
Say procrastination experts: “The main reason people procrastinate is
fear. They get overwhelmed and they’re afraid they’ll look stupid.”
The solution? I give you two rules:
Rule #1: You embrace your suckiness.
Sometime, somewhere, in some twisted development of the modern human
mindset like yours and mine, too; we saw imperfection as a bad thing.
“Hey! if it’s not perfect, it’s not good enough!” most of the world
would scream.
But, that portion of the world misses something:
Without incessant failures, we wouldn’t discover Einstein’s formula,
Edison’s light bulb, Walton’s supercenter, the Wright Brothers’
aircraft, or Ford’s democratized vehicle.
Failure has defined those who have kicked the most unreasonable in
this reasonable world.
It defined the greatest thinkers, the greatest historians, the
greatest economists, the greatest entrepreneurs, the greatest chefs,
the greatest Nobel Laureates, the greatest anything.
Failure’s juicy good, because it steers us toward the correct route.
Peep into this analogy: Imagine that you’ve suddenly lost your vision,
you’re in your kitchen, and you’re trying to make it to your bedroom.
The best way to get there: By using the walls/objects/tables/etc. that
you’ll hit (a.k.a. “failures”) as guides toward your destination.
It’s akin to working on your business projects: you won’t know the
perfect route to get to your destination, but you’ll use
failures/imperfections as guideposts to construct the destination’s
route.
When you embrace your suckiness, you drive yourself to do something -
virtually anything.
Rule #2: You are an eccentric. You don’t need to do anything. You
choose to do it.
Going back to your childhood days: Remember when your parents,
teachers, guardians, bus drivers, and whoever else would tell you:
“Hey Anshita!!! You have to: _______. Then, you have to: _______. Then…”
How did the “have-to’s” make you feel? Probably reluctant, and you
wanted to rebel: which you likely did by half-messing the job.
Using the “I-have-to’s,” drives your mind to subconsciously “confirm
the impression that the task is awful and painful - one you wouldn’t
do if you had the free choice.”
Instead, when you replace the “I-have-to’s” with the “I-choose-to’s,”
you empower your mind to become fully assertive and open to start
thinking and behaving like the unreasonable, eccentric Anshie, who
will make enviable progress in this world of reasonable people.
So...STOP PROCASTINATING now onwards & see how effectively it
facilitates tyour ransformation to...the Rebellion..............
