Creating Action from Procrastination
Do you know how sometimes, you want to bite the bullet and make changes but you are a little afraid of the consequences, and perhaps, the reactions of others?
Procrastination I’ve found, aside from being the ‘thief of time’ is the enemy of positive action. Waiting for the right time can be a useful strategy in some situations, but more likely it becomes an excuse not to take action.
At the centre of all this, are the conversations we have – conversations that are decisive, action orientated and can resolve tensions or competing values. Conversations that boldly take us into new territory.
I noticed recently I was almost on the point of putting off a conversation I should be having. In spotting that I committed to practicing what I preach, by setting up, and hosting a conversation that mattered to me, and to others.
The results were good.
We managed to navigate some tricky terrrain.
The path ahead is much clearer.
Conversations are our route to taking action, moving away from tension or even pain, and moving towards better outcomes in work, and in life.
My e-Book ‘Find Your Voice’ – has strategies to help us host our most important conversations. It is FREE to download from my website and is ideal for those who want to stop procrastinating and start taking action.
You are most welcome to grab a copy and I’m available to run workshops to create better conversations within the workplace.
Find Your Voice and create action!
