Get Shit Done

I am a doer and I am dating a procrastinator. It adds an interesting element to my life as I learn not to take too much on but balance my love of the feeling of getting things down with not giving too much.

My boyfriend often asks how I do it. How I am so motivated to get things done, and how I get started.

So what can you do to actually get shit done?

  • Overwhelm can often lead to procrastination. So this needs to be micromanaged. Break your tasks down into smaller bites.

  • Choose two priorities for the day – focus on these two. Do nothing to else till these are done. Congratulate yourself when completed

  • Give yourself a count down. Either count aloud or in your head ‘3, 2, 1’ and stand up and get moving

  • Set a timer for 22 minutes and see how much you will get done. You may be surprised

  • Reward yourself for doing things you have been putting off and need to be done

  • Ask yourself ‘What is the next best thing?’ and go do it

to do list
