Episode 3757:

Psych Alive explores why procrastination is less about poor time management and more about managing difficult emotions. By uncovering the role of self-critical thoughts and fear-driven avoidance, the article provides tools to move past resistance and take meaningful action.

Read along with the original article(s) here: https://www.psychalive.org/stop-procrastinating/

Quotes to ponder:

"Most of us are all too familiar with the sinking feeling that comes with putting off an important task."

"Procrastination is not a time management problem; it’s an emotional regulation problem."

"We often fail to realize that the very strategies we use to protect ourselves from uncomfortable feelings are the ones that keep us stuck."
