Podcasts about overcoming procrastination

Most teams aren't drowning in work. They're drowning in distractions.   Sarah Lockwood is joined by Jenna Piché, the founder of First Light Time Management Coaching, for a timely conversation about team productivity, deep work, and sharpening your leadership focus. With the year halfway over, it's a good moment to stop and ask: Are you making real progress on the goals you set in January or just staying busy?   Jenna shares why so many leaders unintentionally build cultures where busyness is rewarded, and why that's such a dangerous trap. When everything feels urgent, it's easy to lose sight of the work that actually moves the needle. What signals are you sending to your team about what matters? Are people clear on what to focus on or are they stuck reacting all day?   They also discuss the psychology of productivity and procrastination, including what's actually going on in your brain when you put off the hard stuff. And they talk through what it looks like to shift into a culture that values deep work and gives people the space to do their best thinking.   If your team's attention feels fractured (or maybe your own), Jenna offers a smart reset. The kind that helps you see where time is leaking out of your day, and how to fix it before the second half of the year slips by.   Episode Breakdown: 00:00 Reflecting on Goals and Productivity 02:53 Misaligned Priorities and the Myth of Busyness 06:14 Creating a Culture of Focus 09:00 Identifying Misalignment in Teams 14:55 Overcoming Procrastination and Fear 18:05 Shifting Mindsets for Deep Work 21:00 Building a Supportive Team Culture 23:56 Setting Seemingly Impossible Goals   Links Connect with The Conscious Entrepreneur: Website: http://www.consciousentrepreneur.us  LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/company/conscious-entrepreneur/  Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/conscious_entrepreneur_summit/    Connect with Jenna Piche: Fractured or Focused Attention Assessment: https://eencclvnukx.typeform.com/to/dMYQ67rp LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/jennapiche/ Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/firstlightcoach/ Website: https://firstlighthealth.co/womens-health-and-focus-coaching   Connect with Sarah Lockwood: LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/lockwoodsarah/ Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/hivecast.fm/ Website: https://hivecast.fm   HiveCast.fm is a proud sponsor of The Conscious Entrepreneur Podcast.

In this episode of the Men of Vision Podcast, Dwayne Roberts explores the concept of time management from a spiritual perspective, emphasizing that time is a gift from God rather than a mere tool. He encourages listeners to view their time as a treasure to be stewarded wisely, aligning their daily activities with their values and purpose. The conversation delves into the importance of prioritizing commitments, identifying distractions, and creating a practical framework for managing time effectively. Dwayne challenges listeners to reflect on their time usage and make intentional choices that honor their faith and calling. Takeaways Your calendar reveals more about your faith than words. Time is not a tool, but a treasure to be stewarded. It's not about managing time, it's about managing yourself. Time is a gift from God, not a burden. You don't have a time problem, you have a priority problem. Procrastination can disguise itself in many forms. God doesn't bless disorder in our lives. Consider giving God 10% of your time as a priority. Time is precious and should be treated as your most valuable currency. Your daily routine reflects your spiritual revelation.

Show Notes: Anne-Laure Le Cunff, author of Tiny Experiments and founder of Ness Labs, shares her approach to understanding her own life and why she does things the way she does. Anne-Laure explains that self anthropology is a powerful tool for problem-solvers and doers to understand their own lives and prioritize their priorities. By embracing uncertainty and turning it into curiosity, individuals can overcome procrastination and achieve more in their lives. She emphasizes the importance of self-anthropology in helping people become anthropologists of their own lives by observing themselves throughout their daily lives and asking themselves why they are doing things the way they do. This allows them to understand what is happening right now before planning for the future. Overcoming Procrastination with Curiosity One example of how self-anthropology can be applied to procrastination is by focusing on the problem with curiosity rather than trying to beat it. Procrastination is often seen as a signal from the brain and body that something is not working for you right now. By approaching procrastination from a place of curiosity, individuals can learn useful things from it. By identifying the problem, learning more about it, addressing it constructively, and seeking mentorship, coaching, and the right tools, individuals can design tasks in a more fun and enjoyable way. This approach allows individuals to move forward and get unstuck from the pressure to beat the problem. Anne-Laure explains that self-anthropology is a powerful tool for problem-solvers and doers to understand their own lives and prioritize their priorities. By embracing uncertainty and turning it into curiosity, individuals can overcome procrastination and achieve more in their lives. A Framework for Overcoming Procrastination The conversation turns to the effectiveness of a framework that treats procrastination with empathy, and overcoming procrastination by asking questions and experimenting with different approaches. This approach can be applied to various challenges, such as managing anger, managing health, and examining patterns in emotions and anxiety. Journaling is a great tool for reflecting on experiences and understanding the root causes of issues. Journaling is a mindfulness practice that allows for non-judgmental observation and self-anthropology. By taking notes about thoughts, emotions, and behavioral patterns, one can ask questions about why they happen, what could be different, and what new approaches or ideas could be explored. Regular reviews of journal entries can help identify patterns and changes in one's life, which can help in dealing with challenges in the present moment and providing material for future reflection. Tiny Experiments and Atomic Habits Anne-Laure discusses the concept of making PACTs and how they can be used in conjunction with habits. PACT stands for Purposeful, Actionable, Continuous, and Trackable and they work well with habits.  Atomic habits involve building habits by making tiny experiments with specific durations and outcomes. A tiny experiment is a type of PACT that involves choosing one action and a specific duration to collect data. The main difference between a tiny experiment and an atomic habit is that the experimenter withholds judgment until the data is collected, allowing them to decide if the habit is beneficial or not. The main difference between a tiny experiment and an atomic habit is that the experimenter withholds judgment until the data is collected. This allows them to determine if the habit is beneficial and if it is something they want to continue with in the future. Anne-Laure also discusses the importance of reflection in small experiments, as it helps individuals identify what they enjoy and what they should continue with.  Anne-Laure suggests aligning the data with the measures of success at the end. She suggests tracking internal and external signals, such as mood, heart rate variability, stress, or sleep score, and collecting quantitative data through journaling. The Power of Learning in Public Anne-Laure also emphasizes the importance of learning in public, such as announcing the experiment to others and building accountability. This can be done through social media, WhatsApp groups, or even with a few friends, or even just one accountability factor. She stresses remembering that dips in motivation are also important signals. If you notice procrastination or dreading, you can observe those responses and behaviors and try different things the next day. She explains how to keep going, noting any days where you missed it, and then trying something different the day after. If you find yourself bored or unable to stick with the experiment, you can either pause it and go back to designing a different version or consider that you have collected all the necessary data for one version. Additionally, success for an experiment is learned even if it is discarded, as it has allowed you to learn that it is not a direction you want to follow. Greek Concepts of Time and a Shift in Perception Anne-Laure Le Cunff discusses ancient Greek concepts of time, Chronos and Kairos. Chronos is the quantitative approach to time, where every minute is an identical box that needs to be filled efficiently. Kairos, on the other hand, is a qualitative approach that recognizes that time is elastic and each moment is unique and has a special quality. This approach is crucial in decision-making in daily life and work, as it embraces losing a sense of quantitative time, allowing deeper flow in projects. Anne-Laure goes on to talk about generativity, which is about focusing on the impact one can have today on others, rather than building something that will be forgotten after one or two generations. This approach aligns with an experimental mindset, as it allows for better understanding of what works and what doesn't, and allows for adjustments to be made in the present moment. She mentions her PhD research in ADHD and how it inspired her to adopt an experimental mindset and scientific method. She learned that success is not about getting to a specific destination but about learning something new. By applying this approach to her daily life and work, she noticed more progress without clinging to linear goals. A Community for Curious Individuals Ness Labs is an online community created by Anne-Laure. The community initially started as a newsletter, where she would translate concepts into practical applications for daily life. However, during the pandemic, people felt lonely and missed the opportunity to connect with others. Anne-Laure decided to create an online community for curious individuals who enjoyed discussing topics in her newsletter. The community allows anyone to host workshops, especially those still in the process of learning, and run Tiny Experiments together. During the pandemic, the community hosted events on various topics, such as meditation, creative collages, mental health, psychosis, psychedelics, and philosophical movements. The community also offered co-working sessions, guided creative exercises, and small experiments. Participants could create a log in the community, taking notes based on their experiments, and receive support from the community. The format includes a mix of Pomodoro sessions, intentions, and conversation, with participants sharing their progress and resources related to their projects. Anne-Laure shares a few examples of sessions and Tiny Experiments within the community and how she chose the design of the cover for her book Timestamps: 03:30: Explaining Self-Anthropology  05:40: Addressing Procrastination with Curiosity 10:38: Implementing Self-Anthropology in Journaling  13:49: Introduction to PACTs (Productive and Curious Trials) 14:04: Collecting Data and Building Discipline for PACTs 23:38: Time Shift from Chronos to Kairos  26:29: Focusing on Generativity Over Legacy 29:46: Influence of Academic Studies on the Book  31:33: Introduction to Nest Labs  36:22: Examples of Community Activities and Personal Experiments  Links: Book: TinyExperiments.org Ness Labs website: https://nesslabs.com/ Anne-Laure Le Cunff website: https://anne-laure.net/   Unleashed is produced by Umbrex, which has a mission of connecting independent management consultants with one another, creating opportunities for members to meet, build relationships, and share lessons learned.

Why creating happiness in the future starts today.The new year gives us an opportunity to reflect on who we are and who we want to be. As we set resolutions and prepare for evolutions, this special four-part series on communication, happiness, and well-being explores practical ways to enhance our lives through better communication, deeper connections, and more meaningful choices.In pursuing happiness and well-being, we often focus on the present moment. But according to Hal Hershfield, one of the best ways to help ourselves today is to have a conversation with ourselves in the future."When I say future self, I really mean any version of us that exists at some later point in time," explains Hershfield, a UCLA professor and author of Your Future Self: How to Make Tomorrow Better Today. By thinking of our future selves as different people — ones we should care about — we can make better choices in the present. "If we can tap into the feelings of our future selves, then we can do more that benefits them, which may make our lives easier now and later."In this episode of Think Fast, Talk Smart, Hershfield and host Matt Abrahams explore how communication between our present and future selves can help us set goals, make decisions, and overcome pitfalls like procrastination, enabling us to take meaningful action now so we can thrive today and tomorrow.This episode is sponsored by BetterHelp.

Allan Knight, a former Zen Monk, along with Anika Jackson, Zen Power Coach in Training, guide individuals through this process in the Zen Activation Program. Balancing between being and doing is a constant struggle for many, especially when the pressure to achieve and be productive feels overwhelming. It's essential to find harmony between action and rest, as both are necessary for personal growth. Self-acceptance is key to overcoming guilt and procrastination, allowing individuals to take meaningful action without succumbing to fear or external pressures. Embracing moments of stillness enables clarity, inner regeneration, and more intentional decision-making, ultimately fostering a deeper sense of fulfillment. Self-mastery in relationships is another crucial area for growth. Learning to respond thoughtfully rather than react impulsively can significantly improve how we manage interpersonal dynamics. This involves accepting ourselves, handling criticism with grace, and overcoming the temptation to compare ourselves to others. Self-reflection helps individuals identify emotional triggers, develop healthier communication patterns, and foster stronger, more authentic connections with those around them. Adversity, while difficult, presents an opportunity for growth. Traumatic experiences can lead to greater resilience and self-awareness when viewed through the lens of gratitude and learning. Preparing for the unexpected by organizing personal documents and planning for emergencies ensures we are ready for life's uncertainties. Taking proactive steps to secure our future helps relieve stress and strengthens our ability to navigate life's challenges.  Start by reflecting on your actions, nurturing your relationships, and preparing for what's ahead—your growth depends on it.

Today's episode is covering a topic that is pretty widespread, and affects all of us in some way or another: self-sabotage. Self-sabotage is complicated, and it can manifest in countless ways - the root of where it stems from within each of us is different, too. From our fitness goals to our personal ambitions, self-sabotage can rear its ugly head and realllly hinder us from making the progress we want to in our lives. Even though it's a bit conflicting, self-sabotage can be both intentional AND unintentional. Whether it shows up in the form of procrastination, perfectionism, or something else, we still have the power of making INTENTIONAL choices!Regardless of your past experiences or what you *think* you're capable of, you CAN make positive changes in your life..but you have to be willing to do so. I hope this episode empowers you to break free from self-sabotage (for GOOD) - I'm rooting for you!!Here are some questions to help you dig deeper and gain awareness on where you may be self-sabotaging in your own life:Is your behavior aligning with your goal?If not, what is stopping you from taking action to reach that goal?Do you feel uneasiness or discomfort when you progress? If yes, dig deeper.Is this discomfort based on what others told you that limited your aspirations?Is this discomfort based on a fear of failure and worry about looking foolish?Is this discomfort based on a fear of success?Are you concerned with achieving more than you thought possible?If you do better or achieve more, do you believe success is more than you deserve?In this episode, we cover:Why self-sabotage can be both intentional AND unintentional3 examples of how people self-sabotageThe REAL reason why you're self-sabotagingWhy you see potential in other people so much easier than within yourselfWhy you continue holding yourself back & self-sabotagingRealizing that you are human and will make mistakes, but you don't have to make that your permanent ‘story'Links/Resources:Ep. 136 | Overcoming Anxiety and Embracing Compassion on Your Fitness Journey with Erin Burns (Part 2)Ep. 32 | Dealing with Self-Sabotage and Self-Limiting Beliefs on Your Fitness JourneyCheck out verywellmind.comJoin FIT CLUB, my monthly membership with workouts you can do at home or the gymPRIVATE COACHING is my 1:1 program (choose 3 or 6 month option)Connect with me on Instagram @kristycastillofit and @unfuckyourfitnesspodcast so we can keep this conversation going-be sure to tag me in your posts and stories!Join my FREE Facebook group, Unf*ck Your FitnessClick HERE for my favorite fitness & life things!
