Motivation for Procrastinators

Name:

motivation for procrastinators

About:

This is a community for people who have some kind of project they want to accomplish, but they need some help getting and staying motivated. Pretty much any kind of project is welcome: find a new job, refurbish a volkswagon, get in shape, learn astral projection, write a novel, go back to school...

I'm going to experiment with imposing a little structure on this community: Once a week, I'm going to post a reminder to all members to make a post about something they've done in the past week toward accomplishing their goals. You must post something every week (barring extenuating circumstances).

But don't worry, it doens't have to be anything huge. It's a community philosophy that tiny steps will take us where we want to go, not giant leaps. So it's perfectly acceptable, even encouraged, to note small, seemingly insignificant steps on the path to accomplishment. For example, if you're goal is to become spiritually enlightened, a half-hour browsing online for a good book about yoga counts toward your list, even if you don't find anything you like. If you're trying to write a novel, daydreaming about names for your main character counts toward your list.

Ideally, the other members of the community will comment on your posts with encouragement, inspiration, advice on what your next step might be, or how they handled a similar road block.

If you haven't done anything this week, then tell people what the last thing you did was, and why you're at an impasse. Maybe someone can help.

Finally, and obviously, don't make fun of what someone is trying to do, or their process of doing it.
