Are you spending more time and energy avoiding or putting off doing something versus actually doing it?
Scheduling, logging expenses, answering email, making cold calls, taking out the garbage, or whatever your most dreaded responsibility or task may be, we all have some things we must do as part of our various roles that we don’t enjoy or feel particularly inspired about.
The trap lies in the stories we tell ourselves about these despised responsibilities and tasks.
The bleakness, negativity, and cantankerousness of our narratives can far exceed the reality of doing the thing, making it difficult to confront reality.
So instead of spending time and energy telling yourself a distorted story about what it will be like to do the thing and avoiding doing the thing, confront reality and just do it!
You can then invest your time and energy where it matters most.
