How often do you delay doing the things you planned?

Sometimes later quietly turns into never.
You keep telling yourself you’ll do it tomorrow.
Then tomorrow becomes next week.
And suddenly, the thing you wanted to do is just another unfinished plan.
 
More often than I’d like. What helps me is starting with the smallest part of the task instead of waiting until I feel ready to do the whole thing.

I agree. It’s also very important to start your morning the right way. If you focus on the right tasks from the beginning, the whole day becomes much more productive

for me if it stays as “i’ll do it later” it usually never happens… i need to give it an actual day or deadline otherwise it just keeps moving
How often do I delay doing the things I have planned? Hmmmm. Give me 10 minutes and I’ll reply.
good one lol
 
Way too often :D

"I'll do it tomorrow" has to be one of the biggest productivity killers out there. :)

That may be ADHD mate.
 
I do this sometimes too. What helps me is making the task really small and just starting for 5–10 minutes. Once I start, it’s usually easier to keep going.
think less do more

Exactly. The hardest part usually isn’t knowing what to do — it’s starting.

“Tomorrow” feels harmless until you realize it’s been months. Even small progress today is better than another perfect plan for tomorrow.
 
i think most of us have been there. sometimes it's not that we don't want to do something we just keep waiting for the right time. then a day turns into the week,and suddenly we put it off for far too long.i'm trying to get better at taking action instead of constantly saying, i'll do it tomorrow

I think best point to start the plan is just think about it and then make an visual about the plan in mind. Rest? ai could be the best path to make it easier nowadays
 
That’s me. I’m trying to lose weight and get in good shape. Whenever I start going to the gym, I will go fore few weeks and manage to lose a few pounds. But after a few weeks, I’ll take just one day off for some reason.
Then I will tell myself like will go tomorrow and that tomorrow doesn’t come until a few weeks later.
 
Это я. Я пытаюсь похудеть и привести себя в форму. Когда я начинаю ходить в спортзал, я хожу несколько недель и мне удаётся сбросить несколько килограммов. Но через несколько недель я почему-то делаю один выходной.
Тогда я скажу себе, что завтра пойду, и что это завтра наступит лишь через несколько недель.
It’s a dangerous trap. One day off, and your brain immediately books you a two-week vacation from the gym
