Conquering Procrastination: Unlocking Your Full Productive Potential

Yesterday we talked about procrastination and we also established a fact that it's a dream killer.

let's look at how we can overcome procrastination as individuals.

Procrastination is a challenge that affects even the most disciplined individuals.

While delaying tasks may offer temporary relief, it often leads to stress, missed opportunities, and reduced efficiency.

Here’s how to conquer procrastination and build a more productive mindset:

1️⃣ Identify the Cause
Procrastination often stems from fear of failure, perfectionism, or feeling overwhelmed. Recognizing why you delay tasks is the first step in addressing the issue.

2️⃣ Break Tasks into Smaller Steps
Large tasks can feel daunting, leading to avoidance. Break them into smaller, manageable steps and tackle them one at a time. Completing small milestones creates momentum and builds confidence.

3️⃣ Set Clear Deadlines
Without a deadline, tasks tend to get pushed indefinitely. Assign specific time frames to your work and hold yourself accountable to these deadlines.

4️⃣ Use the Two-Minute Rule
If a task takes less than two minutes to complete, do it immediately. For larger tasks, commit to working on them for just two minutes. Often, starting is the hardest part—once you begin, you’re likely to keep going.

5️⃣ Eliminate Distractions
Create a focused work environment by turning off notifications, setting boundaries, and using productivity tools. A clutter-free space helps maintain concentration.

6️⃣. Reward Progress
Celebrate small achievements to stay motivated. Whether it’s a short break, a favorite snack, or time for a hobby, rewards reinforce positive habits.

7️⃣. Develop a Routine
Consistency builds discipline. Establish a daily schedule that includes dedicated time for work, breaks, and relaxation to create a balanced, productive routine.

Overcoming procrastination is not about achieving perfection but making steady progress. Start small, stay consistent, and watch your productivity grow!

GOV ENO PAYS LAST RESPECT TO LATE BARR. BEN UDOWA

...describes him as a friend and man of many parts

Akwa Ibom State Governor, Pastor Umo Eno, has commiserated with Mrs Lydia Udowa and family on the demise of her husband, Late Barr Ben Udowa.

In a condolence message delivered to the deceased family during the funeral held at The Redeemed Christian Church of God, Region Region 49 Headquarters, Eket, Governor Eno said the loss of a spouse, especially at such a relatively young age, evokes a deep sense of grief, assuring them that the whole state share in their painful moment.

He described the late Barr Udonwa as a man of many parts, a financial services expert, lawyer, entrepreneur, philanthropist, mentor and a beloved community leader, adding that he had inspired many to chart a course of personal development and growth.

The Governor observed that the deceased successfully led his multidisciplinary group of companies, Madelyn Group, and served the State meritoriously until his sad passing as the Executive Director, Other Investments in the Akwa Ibom State Investment Corporation (AKICORP), and distinguished himself as a dependable and far-sighted member of the critical agency.

He noted that as a good friend, late Barr Udowa believed and supported him wholeheartedly, a gesture which culminated to his successful campaign and subsequent emergence as Governor of the State in the 2023 general elections.

The State Chief Executive therefore urged the bereaved family to take solace in the fact that despite his short sojourn on earth, he was able to record a lot of impactful achievements, touched many lives and lived a life defined by Christian virtues, and prayed God to rest the soul of the departed.

The wife of the deceased, Mrs Lydia Udowa, thanked the Governor for leading State government functionaries to give her late husband the last respect, saying that the family is grateful for the gesture.

Mrs Udowa spoke of her late husband as a good and humble man, saying, "from the huge pouring of condolences from groups and individuals, my husband has been described as an exceptional man of great virtue."

Optimism is the faith that leads to achievement. Nothing can be done without hope and confidence.

"Intellectual growth should commence at birth and cease only at death. The pursuit of knowledge is a lifelong journey that extends far beyond formal education. It is through self-directed learning that we cultivate our curiosity, challenge our assumptions, and expand our horizons. True wisdom comes from the ability to learn from every experience and to seek out information that enriches our lives, ultimately leading us to greater achievements and fulfillment." — Albert Einstein.

Achieving your goal is the best achievement

"Many of life's failures are people who did not realize how close they were to success when they gave up. Diligence is the mother of good luck; it is through persistent effort and hard work that we pave the path to our own achievements. Every great accomplishment was once considered impossible, but with unwavering diligence, we can turn dreams into reality." — Thomas Edison

I can't for the life of me comprehend the reason why men resent that women also have standards.

Like, just as you don't love yanshless girls, she doesn't love "short kings" either.

You hate fat girls, she'd never consider a knock-kneed boy.

You can't marry a girl in her 30s, and she can't marry a broke guy.

She's not good enough for you to wife up since she lacks the flair and allure of Beyoncé. Well, she likes her men as handsome as Alex Ekubo, and since you don't compare, she won't date, let alone marry you.

You would rather date an independent woman for fear of leeches. She doesn't want to build with any man, but prefers one that is already financially established.

Every social media platform is littered with winding dissertations from men detailing their ideal lady and the attributes they desire from/in her.

They set up these unrealistic goals regardless of their charm and personal achievements which, when considered, are most times harrowingly underwhelming.

They want a natural-haired tall girl with commander hips, who is as submissive as a medieval housemaid and as prayerful as a roadside preacher, and who doesn't mind slaving away for them in name of "wife".

They make such posts and comments every day and laugh about it in real life, yet no one reminds them that they're repulsive-looking and that their choices are out of reality.

But the moment a woman states her preference for a six-packed niggā with a house and a car, and whose face doesn't bring to her memory the images of monkeys during sexx, men would flood the posts with indignant remarks.

All you'll be seeing is:

* What guy would marry an uglee girl like you kwanu?
*You want a rich man, but your papa sef no dey rich.
*Is it with this your yanshless self that you're saying you can't date a broke guy?
*You can't date a man in his 40s, but you're looking like someone's grandma.

Why is it so hard for men to accept that woman have standards on the kind of men they want? What makes men feel insecure when a woman lists the wants and doesn't wants she has set for HERSELF regarding the opposite sex?

I mean, I've seen women say they want to date a multimillionaire, and although I'm not a multimillionaire myself, I don't go to the post to fight them over their choices. Standards are nice and normal until a woman has them.

The best thing you'll do for yourself as a woman is to be rude, uncouth and, when necessary, wicked. Strip yourself of shame and set your standards as high as Mountain Everest.

Don't date them if they're poor because they wouldn't date you if you looked like Obasanjo.

P.S.: I noticed that my feminism is not as bitter as I want it to be, so I'm trying to rectify that. Be mindful of your comment as I won't hesitate to use the block button.

Your biggest achievement is winning those silent battles, which only God knows about.
