Hello

I am new and I am a procrastinator in recovery.

I have big issues with complex tasks.

I have big issues with tasks that bring me closer to sucess and/or will enable me to take on the next big step

I know it is silly, but posting here is, in this very second, an action of procrastination

 Some things I have done that are good:

I am into decluttering and simplifying my life

I am into creative visualization, most recently I am visualizing myself being able to figure this out.

I have all my goals written down and most have proper size tasks assiciated to them

I don't have them scheduled, I got tired of postponing them

 Any insight and where to start would be very appreciated.

ok, I am back to my tasks, I am not checking this forum at least in 1 hour. (checking forums is a procrastination action, together with getting coffee or just taking a break) help!

hi radiance!

i totally get the coming here to procrastinate.

The most popular tools here are the Daily Check-ins at http://procrastinators-anonymous.org/forum/6 (you can see today's on the right sidebar), and chat at http://procrastinators-anonymous.org/chatbox

Use the tools however they work for you. Check-in is the more permanent, concrete to do list - accountability place to refer back to start day and refer back and keep yourself on goal.

The chat is an ongoing motivational tool to help you stick to your check in. It's also a place to "talk yourself thru things." And, while working ppl can hear chat beeps going off. we call that "beeps of solidarity" because it's comforting to know that people are in chat working thru their issues, even if you're not reading the actual posts.
