Monday Blog 23/52 – Procrastination:
Each one of us procrastinates at work at some time or the other. This is especially true in more successful people, thinkers and high performers. Have you wondered why? Procrastinating work and sitting under it with that smug face does give you some joy, even if momentary. Like I have to finalize this presentation in one hour, but let me watch 10 minutes of my favorite show on Netflix first. Sounds familiar. This ‘feel good’ factor is your brain’s way of handling stress. The stress caused by the presentation that needs to be finalized ASAP perhaps. What if it will not be perfect, what if my boss does not like it, what if it will make me look like a fool amongst my colleagues. So many ‘what if’ questions causing the stress.
Sometimes waiting till the nth hour and then rushing to finish the work, gives you that high. It is almost like challenging yourself…Yes, I did it in the last one hour and it is my best. Maybe so, but at the cost of what? This ‘high’ can become your lifestyle. It keeps your stress level high too, possibly leading to lifestyle diseases ranging from irritable-bowl syndrome, allergy, PCOD, diabetes, wrong cholesterol levels and cardio-vascular diseases.
The next time you think of procrastinating, you have a new way to look at what is happening behind the scene.
