We can fall back on a number of excuses and justifcations as to why we procrastinate.
We have all been there, done that.
Admittedly even I have fallen to the wrath of my own self inflicted procastination.
Cementing terrible habits whereby we seem to avoid following through with what simply needs to be done.
Our recent vlog and podcast focuses on explaining why we procastinate and how to prevent this unproductive habit from forming or repeating itself.
It’s not so healthy in the short term and it becomes rather harmful for our endeavours in the long term.
Examples of procastination with your health and fitness might look like:
- Putting off your meal prep even when you have the time set aside to do so
- Putting off your training to perform a low priority task and missing your training window
- Not eating for hours on end and choosing to literally anything but eat your meals
- Not drinking water because ""you didn't get time"" but your water bottle is right beside you
- Leaving your daily steps until the last minute or end of the day. But somehow watching reels for 30 minutes sitting down
- Avoiding starting your health journey/changes becuase of every reason under the sun you can find
Everyone deals with procrastination differentl but there are common patterns we can recognise which reside behind the behavior.
It's important to stop repeating the same mistakes over and over. And simply stressing ourselves into a ball in the process.
In order to change our experience, we must identify the behaviour then tackle how we can prevent ourselves from falling back into our old ways.
