Procrastination: A barrier to success



One of the greatest obstacles to your path to success will be procrastination. When most people hear this word, they agree that they do it at some time or the other however, most people despite making firm decisions to themselves fail to correct this problem. The fundamental reason to this is that while making the very decision, people tend to procrastinate and this costs them a great deal. It is really a question of mindset.

One might question what this has to do with mind power, however, it is essentially one's mind power that has control over what one is capable of doing or not doing and as we all know procrastination is a barrier to success. As such, when procrastination weakens our very power to accomplish things, how does one defeat it, not just in the short term but in the long term as well?

There is a solution to this and by no means is this a simple one. The solution may seem straightforward, but in reality it is quite difficult to adhere to, its resolve and belief in oneself. It is basically the ability to keep the promises that ones keeps to oneself. If one could do that they will eventually be able to champion procrastination which is an impediment to mental power and success.
