Procrastination is the killer of action and we need action to achieve lifestyle changes. I am currently working on a book on productivity and one of the chapters are teaching us how to overcome our procrastination. Maybe you would like to check it out after the launch?

I agree that when we are doing what we love, energy is not a problem at all. So I believe in order to achieve our desired lifestyle, pursuing what we love to do is a key factor.

Maybe these people are exhausted. More likely unresolved conflicts. For most of us when doing what we love the energy is no problem.

Laziness is a huge factor and it is sad to know that people refuse to be successful because they can’t take in the hard work.

Most people talk about wanting to succeed, but they’re too lazy to succeed because they can’t take the hard work.

“Right approach”
This can be overcome easily by researching for more information through the internet or email people who had actually done it before and ask for their advice.

“Failure”
Fear of failure will cause us to cease taking action. I do have fear when I am doing something new but I will raise my courage by telling myself FEAR = False evidence appearing real. Then I will analyze the situation and find out what is the worst case scenario and most of the time, it isn’t so bad and it is not a matter of life and death. After all these thinking, I will be thinking much more about the positive possibilities rather than feeling fearful.

“Right support”
Due to the internet, we can meet lots of like minded people on the internet. You may try social media sites like Twitter or Facebook to find people who have the same dream as you and try to work something out. Creating a group of like minded people will help you get results that you have never expected.

Hope all these help.

The “good enough” mentality definitely cause us to be stuck on a level. You had mentioned a great point!

@Hi Evan,

By having supportive relationship will allow us to have partners that can help us to be accountable and also spur us on. These 2 factors are likely to help us to take more action and be persistent in chasing our goals.

@Hi Michael,

You have given me some great points and life is really a journey and our desired lifestyle doesn’t come with a click of a finger. It takes lots of courage to overcome fear and effort to change our lifestyle into one that we want. The journey will be long but definitely interesting.

@Hi Jeremy,

I think that discontentment over our lifestyle may be good as it help to push us to get our desired lifestyle but too much of constant discontentment may backfire on us.

@Hi Chris,

I agree that if someone want something bad enough, they will definitely find ways to get it. If we are really broke and want to have food on the table, we will get the food on the table no matter what because we want to have the food badly. I love the point you stated. Thanks!
