You’re scared of taking on a difficult task

Post by badsha0025 »

For example, if your boss asks for a report, tell them you’ll have it ready by Friday. Creating the deadline will hold you accountable, whereas not having a deadline at all might mean you put the task off, or take much longer to get it done.

You can also find a friend or close colleague who you can set daily or weekly goals with. Check in on each other at the end of the work day or week to see if you hit the goals or not.

Knowing someone will learn about your poor time management may be all it takes for you to improve it.

14. Beat Procrastination
Sometimes, we do have enough time to get everything done, we c level executive list just don’t get started on tasks until it’s too late.

But there are many different types of procrastination. You might be putting things off because:

You don’t know where to begin on a big project or goal
You don’t have all the information you need to get started
Figure out which kind of procrastination you’re feeling and take steps to solve it.

Maybe you need to break a big project into smaller steps or give yourself a pep talk about taking on a task that feels too difficult for you.
