Dealing with Procrastination

Procrastination can be considered to be a process involving acts and patterns. "Procrastination acts" are random and inconsistent, specific to particular aspects only. You postpone returning a library book until after it's overdue.

You finished the book. But you don't want to go out of your way to return it on time. This is an isolated occurrence since you typically promptly return what you borrow.

On the contrary procrastination patterns are predictable and consistent habitual delays that are not situation specific, but follow an identifiable sequence.

This kind of a sequence involves an initial feeling of discomfort about a task and then aimlessly moving to another task which perhaps might be irrelevant.

Overcoming Imposter Syndrome

Think of your greatest achievements. Do you feel proud of what you've accomplished? Or do you feel like a fraud? Does each raise, promotion or accomplishment bring joy? Or is it accompanied by the dread that, one day, your cover will be blown, and everyone will find out that you just got lucky?

Such feelings of inadequacy and self-doubt when become intense turn into a condition most of us are not familiar with.

How to overcome Perfectionism

Each one of us sets certain goals for ourselves and try our best to achieve them. However, there is a difference between the healthy pursuit of excellence and unhelpful perfectionism.

In unhelpful perfectionism, the person may evaluate their worth on how well they think they achieve their own high standards. Their self-esteem is dependent on the achievement of goals.

Further, even if pursuing goals results in negative consequences, those with unhelpful perfectionism may continue to strive to achieve them.

Dealing with Social Anxiety

Whenever we want to change an aspect of our lives such as our emotions, maladaptive thoughts or behavior, one can start from enlisting it first.

Monitoring our emotions, behaviors and situations that trigger them helps us to become explicitly aware of our anxiety and thereby is the first step to change them.

Self-monitoring is the single most important technique used in Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT). It is important especially for self-directed change and self-regulation.
