As I progress with my procrastination fight, I started to feel about some tasks I'm giving to myself, that some tasks are not even things I want to do... Well that's nothing unusual, we have to do a lot of tasks we don't want to do in our lives, but now I'm talking about tasks you feel that you should do, but you don't want to.
If you want to be muscular or just fit, you will have to workout and if that's really what you want, you will be less likely to procrastinate it. But if your task "workout" will be in your tasker just to fill the empty space, the chance of procrastinating it will be very high. And that will only give you bad feeling about not doing it because when you were planning that day, you told yourself to do it...
Fighting procrastination is not about spending every second of your life doing something useful... I know that it sounds so amazing - to live life to it's maximum, but your life won't be the best it can be without adeqaute rest. Without resting, you will only find yourself whining about being overworked and in need of rest later...

Fighting procrastination: starting my daily tasks list
I'm reading a book, and a lot of articles about fighting procrastination. A lot of people that are successful in beating procrastination are talking about the importance of daily tasks lists.
Tasks lists, to-do lists, organizers,... there is a lot of possibilities how to record tasks you need to do later. But daily tasks list is about recording every task you either need or want to do every day!
There are tasks that you probably already do daily and so automatically that you don't need to record them in such list (e.g. brushing teeth, taking a bath/shower,...). But there are tasks that you don't do everyday even though you want to (e.g. workout, waking up earlier,...).
For tasks like this, there is a big probability of procrastinating them or even forgeting about some. And that's the reason to create your daily task list.

Difference between a free time and a "free time"
Hey guys!
One of the most common reasons why people fail to fulfil their plans are simply because they do not have enough of time. They do not have all the time they expected to have. And why? Because they don't know the difference between their "free time" and their actual free time...
Free time is a time you have for yourself, your hobies, for your friends and family, etc...

Easy way to organize your day-by-day life
Hey guys!
Maybe you read my earlier article about how you can help yourself with organizing your life. Now I will show you one of the easiest way to do so.
To-do lists
Have you ever heard about "to-do" lists? You surely had.
It's a simple list of anything you have to do later and when you did the thing you just erase it or cross it out.
With this list, you can keep track of any upcoming task. It's like a shopping list - when you have the goods you have written down on it, you cross it down and easily know what you already have and what else you do not have yet...

Chill out a bit and start organizing your life more
Hey guys!
Do you ever feel like you should be doing a thousands of things at the moment so you just sit down and do nothing because you feel powerless? Chill out a bit!
Problem is that people aren't capable of doing more things at the same time. You can only think about one problem at a moment. Even though it feels like you're thinking about more problems at the same time, your brain is only switching from one to another...
Car drivers will definitely know this. Remember that time when you were driving with "full head" and nearly crashed or made some other mistake while driving? Yeah you probably know that. It's not only in driving but in everything you do. But while driving, it's more dramatic because not focusing on your road can cost you a life...
