You don’t even have to go to a psychologist if you follow these instructions.

Step by step instructions

By imagining the parts in front of you, you can no longer be afraid of the whole and then you can overcome fear, laziness or whatever else is stopping you from starting to live.

2. To make things more fun, be sure to set deadlines for each task.

Even if it seems insignificant, it still needs to be done on time. Otherwise, the process may be delayed or even stopped.

3. Don't storm impregnable fortresses. Goals should be realistic, otherwise you can give up halfway, scared of the difficulties.

4. It is important to eliminate everything that distracts your attention and prevents you from concentrating on the main thing. First of all, this is a gadget.

5. Don't forget about your environment. Your circle should now consist only of those people whose communication inspires you to take action.

When you achieve any success, do not forget to encourage yourself, praise, indulge and motivate yourself in every possible way so that you do not stop there.

For reference

Procrastination is a psychological tendency to constantly postpone even important and urgent tasks, which leads to life problems and painful psychological effects.
