Podcasts about Procrastination

Start Your Transformation Now  In this episode of the Transform Your Life from the Inside Out podcast, Jim Fortin shares one of the biggest missed opportunities of his life—how not acting on advice to buy Bitcoin at ten cents a coin cost him $1.2 billion. Through this story, Jim explores the deeper lessons behind missed chances, fear, and procrastination, showing how hesitation keeps us stuck while action opens the door to growth.  This conversation isn't about regret—it's about how fear, uncertainty, and waiting for the “perfect time” sabotage us more than bad decisions ever could. Jim explains why opportunities slip away, how to shift your perspective around risk, and why action—even imperfect action—is the only way forward. If you've ever looked back and thought, “I should have done that,” this episode will change how you see opportunities and give you the mindset shift you need to stop hesitating and start acting. What You'll Discover in This Episode:  Why Opportunities Slip Away (02:00) Jim explains how fear and uncertainty cause us to ignore the chances right in front of us.  The Bitcoin Story That Cost $1.2 Billion (08:00) The now-famous moment when Jim was told to buy Bitcoin at ten cents—and why he didn't.  Fear, Uncertainty, and Procrastination (15:00) Why waiting for the “right time” is the surest way to lose opportunity forever.  How the Past Sabotages the Present (22:00) Your fears and limitations come from the past—and they keep you from acting now.  The Only Time You Have Is Now (25:30) Why opportunities only exist in the present moment, never in the past or future.  Action as Salvation (36:00) Jim's biggest transformational takeaway: growth only happens when you take action, no matter the outcome.  Listen, apply, and enjoy!  Transformational Takeaway  Action is your salvation. Every moment presents an opportunity, but waiting, fearing, or second-guessing only guarantees loss. When you choose to act—even if the outcome is uncertain—you grow, evolve, and move forward. Don't wait for tomorrow; it never comes. The time to act is always now.    Let's Connect:  Instagram | Facebook | YouTube | LinkedIn  LIKED THE EPISODE?  If you're the kind of person who likes to help others, then share this with your friends and family.

Procrastination doesn't have to hold you hostage—you can learn to shift it with ease. In this episode, we explore strategies to release the procrastinator impulse by grounding yourself in the present, honouring realistic time frames, and reconnecting with what lights you up. We share the simple yet powerful practice of committing to “just five minutes” to break through resistance, as well as how to break bigger goals into smaller, celebratory steps. We also talk about releasing comparison—both to others and how others may compare us—while remembering that we are each the author of our own life story. With compassion, curiosity, and a willingness to listen to your heart's guidance, you can move past procrastination and step fully into aligned action.Have you joined our Facebook Group yet?

The Illusion of Success: Why We Feel Unfulfilled Even When We Have It All What if your greatest achievement was a trap? What if the success you've worked your entire life to achieve left you feeling more miserable than when you started? This isn't a hypothetical question. It's the shocking reality for countless high-achievers, entrepreneurs, and leaders. It's the central theme of a powerful conversation I had with Keala Kanae, who went from $20,000 in debt and a life of numbing out to building a multi-million-dollar empire. But as he revealed, the real breakthrough wasn't about the money; it was about "unlearning the lies he'd been telling himself". This is a new perspective that will shatter everything you think you know about success, discipline, and leadership. Procrastination is Not a Flaw, It's Feedback We've all been told that procrastination, self-sabotage, and imposter syndrome are signs of a lack of discipline or a character flaw. But Keala offers a radically different view: these are not problems to overcome, but symptoms that serve as feedback. He explains that every human being has a set of unconscious values that governs their life. When our conscious goals are in conflict with these unconscious values, we experience these symptoms. The 11-year-old boy who plays video games until 2 a.m. is not undisciplined; he is highly disciplined in something he values. The mind's purpose is to help us fulfill what we perceive to be most valuable. Therefore, our procrastination isn't a sign that we're broken—it's a signal telling us when we're venturing away from what we truly value. The True Meaning of Your Bank Account and Calendar To understand our own values, we have to stop listening to the "noisy society" that tells us who we are supposed to be. Keala echoes the wisdom of business guru Peter Drucker, who said, “Tell me what you value, and I might believe you, but show me your bank account and your calendar, and I'll show you what you value”. If you're a leader who says you value your family, but your calendar is packed with work and your energy is spent on business podcasts while your kids and spouse are at the bottom of your priority list, your life is perfectly demonstrating what you actually value. When we are pursuing things we truly value, we have inspiration—an internal, self-sustaining drive. When we're pursuing something low on our value list, we need motivation—an external force that is never self-sustaining. The Trap of the "Greatest Human Illusion" Keala believes the greatest human illusion is thinking we can have one side of life without the other. We are taught to label things as "good" or "bad". When we label something as "good," we're conscious of the benefits but unconscious of the drawbacks. When we label something as "bad," we're conscious of the drawbacks but unconscious of the benefits. The reality is that equanimity, or balance, is the language of the universe. Keala shares a powerful example: the Black Plague of the 14th century killed tens of millions, but a mutation that stemmed from its survivors made millions of people immune to the AIDS virus centuries later. Was the plague good or bad? "It was both," he says, because both sides exist. From Forgiveness to Gratitude This understanding is the key to true healing and fulfillment. We often hold onto resentment. The next step is forgiveness, which is better than resentment, but still comes from the perspective that "I'm right, you're wrong". The place beyond forgiveness is gratitude. It is the profound realization that "I see how this benefited me". When Keala went back and re-examined the traumatic memories of his childhood, he realized that the very arguments about money that caused him pain were what honed his communication skills and helped him become a great marketer. When you realize your greatest challenge was also your greatest gift, "what the fuck can stop you then?". Your Secret Weapon: Know Thyself, Lead Thyself This entire journey is about becoming an "authentic leader". Keala defines this as someone who "knows their calling and has the courage to answer the call". This requires shedding the personas and false beliefs we've inherited from a noisy world. Want to start this journey of profound self-discovery? Keala has a free self-assessment that will help you identify your actual, unconscious values. He calls it The Power Code.

Procrastination isn't always laziness—sometimes it's a sign. In this episode, we explore the deeper reasons why we put things off, including the possibility that we simply don't want to do them. We talk about the power of telling ourselves the truth, trusting our intuition, and cultivating curiosity to discover what's truly in alignment for our best outcomes. We also reflect upon the importance of staying true to our own moral compass, walking to the beat of our own drum, and resisting the pull of external pressures.

What if there's never gonna be a perfect plan and total clarity?  On today's episode Dr. Anne-Laure Le Cunff, the author of "Tiny Experiments: How to Live Freely in a Goal-Obsessed World", shares how tiny experiments can transform our approach to life, work, and meaningful change without rigid goals or predetermined paths. Her experimental mindset offers a powerful alternative to traditional planning - designing low-risk experiments to uncover your path one step at a time.  We will touch on:  From shiny to misaligned. Anne-Laure shares how a great job and smart teammates still left her internally “off”, impacting health and relationships - so she stepped off the ladder.  The risky jump (and reframe). A first startup “because that's what you do” created avoidable financial stress. The second transition flipped the script: keep some income for safety and treat the next step as an experiment, not a bet-the-farm goal.  A scientist's lens on identity change. Before you “optimize,” observe: practice 24 hours of self-anthropology (field notes without judgement) to notice energy, curiosity, and friction points.  Tiny Experiments in one line: “I will [action] for [duration].” Short, low-risk trials beat vague, year-long resolutions.  Bring the team. Run a shared “lab cycle” (30 days). Success = new knowledge, not a binary win/lose.  Mindful productivity > hustle. You're not a calendar robot; protect moments and engineer creative windows with simple rituals (music, stretch, tea, micro-walks).  Procrastination is a signal, not a sin. Use Head/Heart/Hand to diagnose: misaligned rationale, low emotional pull, or missing skills/tools/support - then fix the right thing.  Generativity vs. Legacy. Aim to make a small, present-day impact you can see now; legacy may emerge as a by-product.  ... and so much more!  Ready to design your first tiny experiment?  Catch the full Change Wired episode with Anne-Laure Le Cunff and explore practical tools for mindful productivity, career transitions, and thriving in a goal-obsessed world.   Links & resources mentioned  Anne-Laure's bio & personal site: https://anne-laure.net  Ness Labs (newsletter & articles): https://nesslabs.com/newsletter  Book: Tiny Experiments: How to Live Freely in a Goal-Obsessed World Amazon  Target  Audible.com  Starter read on Mindful Productivity: “Mindful productivity: a sustainable way to work and think”   Text Me Your Thoughts and IdeasSupport the showBrought to you by Angela Shurina Behavior-First, Executive and Optimal Performance Coach 360, Change Leadership & Culture Transformation Consultant

SHOW NOTES: On this show…we're exploring how you can do hard things, build resilience & beat procrastination! We're diving into that moment when your brain whispers, “nah, let's just wait, doing hard stuff is hard.” And you know what? That's totally okay. Procrastination isn't about laziness, it's your body's way of dodging discomfort. We'll explore how resilience isn't about superhero strength, it's about learning to lean into the challenge, even when you'd rather binge‑watch from your comfort zone. Life tosses curveballs; overwhelm, fear of failing, perfectionism, or just sheer dread of starting. But guess what? Even taking the tiniest step counts as a win. I'll walk you through what's really going on in your brain, then we'll share a laugh (or two) as we explore strategies that empower, not overwhelm. Stick around; by the end, procrastination might just feel a little more conquerable and maybe even a bit fun. Let's start by getting on the same page. We're tossing around two big, emotionally loaded words today, resilience and procrastination and if you're like most of us, they come with a mix of admiration, guilt, hope, and ugh. So before we dig in, let's unpack what they really mean, no shame, no psych textbook, just real talk. Resilience is often portrayed as superhero stuff, people running back into burning buildings, climbing mountains with one leg, bouncing back from personal tragedy like it was just a flat tire. But in everyday life, resilience looks more like showing up to a meeting you're dreading, trying again after failing, or getting out of bed when everything in your body says “no thanks.” It's not about being immune to struggle, it's about finding a way through it. Resilience is messy, imperfect, and deeply human. It's the part of you that whispers “try again” when the louder voice says “just quit.” On the other hand, procrastination is often misjudged as laziness or a lack of discipline. But spoiler alert: it's not. Procrastination is actually a form of emotional self-protection. It's your brain saying, “That task looks uncomfortable. Let's go organize the fridge instead.” You delay not because you don't care, but because something about that task, fear of failure, fear of success, overwhelm, boredom, feels threatening or unpleasant. So you put it off… and then beat yourself up for putting it off. Sound familiar? Why We Procrastinate: The Psychology of Putting Things Off Can Self-Compassion Overcome Procrastination? The ONLY Way To Stop Procrastinating | Mel Robbins CHALLENGE: Stop waiting for the perfect moment and start with the next one—messy, unmotivated, and unsure if you're ready. Because forward is forward, and five imperfect minutes of action beats one more day of overthinking.   I Know YOU Can Do It!

In this episode, Kim Keane explores the deep-rooted fear of being seen and how it often stems from past experiences and childhood moments of shame or embarrassment. Kim shares her own story of a high school talent show gone wrong and discusses how such events can shape our nervous system's response to visibility, leading to procrastination and self-doubt. She explains that these reactions are not failures, but protective mechanisms.  Connect with Kim: EFT Tapping Booster Session - https://courses.kimkeane.com/courses/tapping-booster-sessionFree Emotional Detox Workbook - https://courses.kimkeane.com/f/emotional-detox-workbookFree Everyday Spirituality Handbook - https://courses.kimkeane.com/f/everyday-spirituality-handbookInstagram - https://www.instagram.com/kimvkeane/Facebook - https://www.facebook.com/kimvkeaneYouTube - https://www.youtube.com/@kimvkeaneEmail - kim@kimkeane.com If you found this episode helpful, please take a moment to leave a review and tell your friends about it.

Dr. Chase shares evidence-based strategies like habit-building techniques from Atomic Habits, pairing tasks with rewards, breaking down large projects, and setting boundaries to minimize distractions. She emphasizes that these tools, originally for neurodiverse clients, can enhance efficiency for all professionals pushing their limits. Tune in for part 1, with more on self-monitoring and persistence in part 2 next week. This episode is essential for physicians seeking to sharpen focus, reduce guilt, and reclaim work-life balance.Three Actionable Takeaways:Build Habits Over Willpower – For boring tasks like charting, make cues visible (e.g., set up your workspace for easy access), pair them with rewards (e.g., a favorite tea after completion), and eliminate aversive elements (e.g., adjust your environment to avoid distractions) to increase compliance without relying on sheer grit.Break Down Large Tasks and Minimize Distractions – Tackle complex projects like mandatory modules or side gigs by dividing them into small steps, setting timers or task goals, and using techniques like tone tapes (variable alarms) to self-check focus; reward persistence to maintain motivation.Set Firm Boundaries for Work-Life Balance – Establish clear rules for interruptions (e.g., airplane mode during deep work), secure reliable childcare to close mental "browser tabs," and communicate availability with family and colleagues to stay present at work or home without guilt.About the Show:Succeed In Medicine covers patient interactions, burnout, career growth, personal finance, and more.

Procrastination isn't a time‑management problem—it's an emotion‑management one. In this solo episode, I unpack how shame fuels the procrastination loop and why “I'll do it tomorrow” keeps us stuck. (This framing comes from researcher Tim Pychyl's work showing procrastination is about regulating feelings, not calendars.) I walk through a simple “Head, Heart, or Hands” check to pinpoint what's really blocking action—overthinking (head), emotional resistance (heart), or missing tools/skills/environment (hands)—and how to respond to each.Then we borrow from Anne‑Laure Le Cunff's Tiny Experiments and make a short pact: a tiny, curiosity‑driven step (your “bare minimum habit”) that trades judgment for feedback and momentum. By the end, you'll have one micro‑action to break the cycle today—and a playbook to repeat tomorrow.Welcome to the Pac, please make sure you subscribe wherever you are listening to this show and if you loved this show please leave us a 5 star review in the iTunes store.

If only you spent more time working and less time procrastinating, your life would be so much better. Right? Friend, I know how you feel, but it's not that simple. Some forms of procrastination actually help us get our work done, while some forms of work are just a waste of your time. In fact, I've come to realise that the very idea of procrastination is pretty unhelpful, and it can stand in the way of understanding why we struggle to make progress, and how to fix it. In this episode, I'm going to share with you a more empowering way to think about how to get things done.Brand new download!

Ask David: How to Stop Giving a Crap Motivating a Procrastinator . . . and More The answers to today's questions are brief and were written prior to the show. Listen to the podcast for a more in-depth discussion of each question. Today's questions. 1. Chris has a question about Positive Reframing and the Magic Dial. 2. Joe asks: What method would be best to stop giving a crap? 3. Ollie asks: How do you motivate a procrastinating patient to do the hard work of facing the task they've been putting off? 4. Owen asks: Should I complete a full Daily Mood Log each day? 5. Owen also asks: Is it okay to copy the positive reframing from a previous DML when relevant?   1. Chris asks about Positive Reframing and the Magic Dial. Hi David! I'm currently on my third re-read of "Feeling Great" and want to thank you for the positive changes and progress I have experienced in my life as a result of the techniques and information present in the book. My question is, when you use positive reframing, and identify all the advantages of a negative thought, but still decide, "Hey I would still like to reduce my suffering, in spite of all these good things. But I would love to keep the advantages too." Does this mean my conviction for change is not strong enough? Or is this when I should transition to the magic dial technique and try to keep the best of both worlds ? Thank you in advance, Christian David's reply Thanks, do the Magic Dial and you can have it both ways. However, keep this in mind, or perhaps discover it later on. Once you start to challenge your thoughts successfully, and your belief in your negative thoughts diminishes substantially, you may decide to lower your feelings even further, possibly all the way to zero. And at that point, you're probably ready for Relapse Prevention Training as described in the book. The Feeling Great app is free this summer if you're in the US, so that might help you along the trail if needed. Warmly, David Can I use this as an Ask David question on one of our Ask podcasts? d Christian responds Hello David, Thank you for your in depth response, that's really handy. Part of me is really hoping I'll want to lower my ratings even further, but I think as you have outlined many times, honoring my resistance is important if I want to get to that point. It's weird isn't it, I know at an intellectual level I want these things to happen, but at the gut level part of me is still holding on. I would love to use the app, however I'm based in the UK and it isn't available to me, I saw on the FAQ on the website that it may be getting released in other parts of the world soon ? I also hope there will be more and more TEAM-CBT therapists available in the UK in future too ! Absolutely, I would love for my question to be featured in the podcast ! Warm Regards, Christian   2. Joe asks: What method would be best to stop giving a crap? Hey Dr. Burns, Your two most recent webinars have been very helpful, especially Overcoming Perfectionism, yet I still struggle hard with perfectionism. [To be specific, I put a video out there that people enjoyed (internally) and that I spent a month on, only to get mostly ignored, and I feel defeated.] What method would be best to stop giving a crap? Thanks! Joe David's Reply As I have said so often, I don't recommend “methods” for “problems.” I use TEAM, a process. I sometimes have the same problem with media interviews. I am often asked to give three tips on this or that problem, like gaining self-esteem or whatever. For example, a Chinese interviewer asked for “tips” on overcoming depression, like spending more time in nature or more time with friends and the people you care about. I am not happy about such questions, as my answer is that I'm a no tips please type of guy. I have developed many powerful processes for dealing with a variety of common problems. For example, for individual mood problems I find it extremely useful to start out with a partially completed Daily Mood Log, and for a relationship problem a partially completed Relationship Journal can lead to some fantastic and revealing work. But as far as general “tips” for not “giving a crap” if you're struggling with perfectionism, I can only quote what the Buddha said nearly 2,500 years ago: “General tips suck! Give me something specific and real, please!” Best, david   3. How can you motivate someone who procrastinates? Dear David, I have a question but first I'd like to tell you and the team just how much I'm loving the app. Especially since you gave the AI a voice so now we can speak with it rather than typing out responses. Now it feels so quick and easy. Sometimes, I find it can be hard to motivate myself to do the self-help work but talking to the app makes the process effortless. It really does feel like having a friend who's got your best interest at heart, and they're available to talk to you whenever you need them. My question is about the role of therapists when it comes to patient motivation. I was hoping you could clarify why when patients present with anxiety, we know they will predictably resist doing exposure, but as a therapist it is necessary to press the matter. However, when working with a procrastinating patient, they will almost always show similar process resistance (to doing whatever it is they're procrastinating about), but your recommendation (as far as I understand it) is not to push them to do anything. Not to help motivate them to do the hard work. Is there a reason for this difference, or have I misunderstood entirely? Warmest regards, Ollie David's Reply I can make this an Ask David question, and thanks. Appreciate the kind comments. As a therapist working with anxiety or depression, I work out the Outcome and Process Resistance before trying to “help.” So, the depressed patient must agree to homework, and the anxious patient must agree to exposure, in order for us to work together on those problems. This is called Dangling the Carrot, Gentle Ultimatum, and Sitting with Open Hands and sometimes with Fallback Position at the end. If a patient wants help with procrastination, they must agree to the five-minute rule, to get started at a specific time today, even if they don't feel motivated. I see it as the same thing: making the patient accountable and giving the patient free will to decide what they are willing to do—or not willing to do. I would never try to motivate a procrastinating patient! That's not on the menu. However, I can help them get started if they need help, but I the first five things they have to do into simple things taking 15 seconds each, like sit in my chair might be the first step in organizing you desk. Then reaching for a piece of paper that needs filing. Etc. Five minutes work of little things. You might want to listen to / search the podcasts for this process. We'll mention a bit more on the podcast. Warmly, david If I missed it, try again!    4. Owen asks: Should I complete a full Daily Mood Log each day? Hi Dr. Burns, Thank you again for all the incredible content you've been sharing—both the Feeling Good podcast and your Feeling Great videos. You're so engaging and natural on camera, it's hard to believe you were ever camera-shy! The Ask David segments are always a highlight of my Mondays. I just had two quick questions about the Daily Mood Log. I often find it takes me several hours to complete one fully, including the positive reframing. Should I aim to complete a full log each day for maximum benefit, or is it okay to work through one gradually over several days? I often get unrelated negative thoughts while still working on a previous log, which means I can't get to the new ones right away. David's Reply Hi Owen, Yes, you can spread it out for sure. david   5. Owen asks: To speed things up, is it okay to copy positive reframing from a previous DML when relevant, or is it better to start fresh each time? Thanks so much in advance, Owen (assumed name) David's Reply Hi Owen, Yes, you can use previous PR! Will include your questions at the upcoming Ask David podcast. Can we use your first name? david At our next Ask David, we'll start out with this question: 1. Zainab asks: Is friendship a basic human need? What do you think? Yes? No? Maybe? We did a survey among our group in preparation for the next Ask, and it was two “no's” (Matt and David) and one “yes” (Rhonda). So stay tuned next week for the discussion of this question that comes up often in different disguises. For example, we often hear heated proclamations on whether love is an adult human “need.” What do you think about that question? Thanks for listening today! Matt, Rhonda, and David
