How to get out of the procrastination loop ?

How to Escape the Procrastination Cycle

I’ve come across countless articles on procrastination, and now I want to share my personal experience.

A few months back, I found myself stuck in a rut—skipping classes, neglecting assignments, and wasting hours on gaming and social media. My situation escalated to the point where I dreaded exams and felt lost about my future.

Fortunately, with my family’s unwavering support, I managed to turn things around. Now, I’m on a journey of self-improvement, making progress like I never have before. Here are some strategies that helped me along the way:

  1. Don’t Wait for Tomorrow
    We all know that postponing tasks usually leads to more procrastination. So, why not tackle it today? If a task feels daunting, here’s my next tip:

  2. Break It Down and Start Small
    Dividing a large task into smaller, manageable parts makes it feel less intimidating. By starting small, you can gradually build momentum and develop a habit.

  3. Prioritize Consistency Over Perfection
    This is crucial—aiming for perfection right out of the gate can lead to disappointment and a return to procrastination. Focus on being consistent instead.
