I am the Queen of Procrastination.
I will tell you right now, you may be good at it, but, I am the Queen of Procrastination. The Queen!!!
I can talk myself out of or put things off like a champ. I should cook supper. No, I’m not hungry. Cereal sounds good. I need to get this done or that done. Not going to happen. Everything seems too hard. But, when I can get going, stay out of my way!
This Blog is the hardest thing I have ever done and it took me two years just to get started. I tried to talk myself out of it that long. My head just kept coming back to it over and over until I gave in.
When I first started looking into blogs I thought no way. Everytime I the idea came into my head I ignored it. But, it just kept coming and coming and coming. So finally I decided to give up on the noise in my head and go do a blog. (It was like a nagging mother-in-law.)
I worked at it for a couple of months and asked friends to help then gave up and let Bluehost do it for me. I had to look up every other word to see what they were talking about. I am not techie at all! But, I have learned a lot since I started all of this. But I still know nothing. There is just too much! If you want to try something that will be a real challenge, start a blog.
Sometimes when a depressive squall is brewing I can’t do most things. I can’t watch TV shows that are sad or have a lot of drama. I can’t take on more work. Normal household chores for most people can be like climbing a mountain to me. Do you sometimes feel like this??
When the depressive waters are calm I can still procrastinate. I always have an underlay of depression to work around first. Then Procrastination kicks in and it takes me a whole lot of wasted time to get things done. When I get caught up in things I get a lot done. But, if I get stopped for a phone call or something, I’m done for awhile. Maybe days. Maybe years. Next project!
This post for example is taking my a very long time to type and I don’t usually have that trouble, but this is one of those days. Don’t let Procrastination get the best of you. When you HAVE to get something done, keep at it. Depression and Procrastination go hand in hand and you have to work with it if you don’t have the time to go back to bed. Never Give UP!!!!
