653327 views

Your failures aren’t because you’re weaker or less smart than others. You’re just the victim of a very normal pattern known as “The Procrastination Cycle.” And there’s a weird trick to end it for good.


It goes without saying, we all mess up big time.

We’re all trying to succeed, but few of us truly understand why we keep failing.

Here, try this trick out:

Think of something you’ve wanted to accomplish but haven’t yet.

Something meaningful to you.

Maybe you haven’t gotten around to it, are too timid to go for it, or took a shot and failed big time.

Hold that epic failure in your mind… maybe you’re even in the middle of it now.(In that case, read to the end… you’ll see why)

When you think about your struggle, you probably think you’re a special kind of screw up — that you’re uniquely weak or flawed… that others can do it and you’re just a lost cause.

Good news: you’re wrong!

The reason is actually really simple. And really easy to overcome once it “clicks.”

Once you discover it, you might feel a surge of regret over not learning it sooner and letting all your dreams pass you by for so long…

You’re about to discover why you’re the victim of a very common, very sneaky response called The Procrastination Cycle…

And how to avoid it forever

So when you…

Get pumped up for a goal only to lose all courage when it’s “go time”

❌ Know you have the ability and potential but just can’t get yourself to do it

❌ Feel jealous when less talented people achieve things you dream about

Then you’re 100% falling victim to this cycle.

But more importantly… 

If you’re serious about freeing yourself from this horrible cycle…

And conquering your most precious goals…

 

Then pay close attention to this next part…

Because I’m going to share an idea that literally unlocks your potential and shatters the excuse making mechanism in your mind.

And it’s especially effective for people who’ve been taught to play small their whole life.

Since right now there’s a greater need than ever for you to conquer your goals.

So if you’ve read all the motivational books

You’ve binge watched YouTube videos of overcoming your unworthiness…

You’ve scrolled through hundreds of feel-good motivational memes on Instagram…

And you’re still kicking yourself for all the missed opportunities and failed goals…

This is the hamster wheel I’m going to Help you escape from…


Here’s what you’ve been looking for — The Procrastination Cycle, a mechanism that’s been secretly running your life and tricking you into feeling bad about yourself.

Your life goes something like this…

 

1. You set a Goal

 

You get inspired, fed up or are finally ready to do “the thing.” You feel a rush of happy brain chemicals and the world is your oyster — nothing can get in your way.

2. Unhelpful Rules and Assumptions kick in

This is where the wind is ripped from your sails. 

You have beliefs that cause you to freeze, hesitate or feel undeserving.

These beliefs show up as rules and assumptions about you and your life.

Things like…

“I can’t be seen as a failure so it’s best if I don’t try”

“The outcome is too uncertain so I just won’t do anything”

“If I screw it up, others will judge me and I’ll feel humiliated”

and a thousand other assumptions we have about ourselves that keep us small.

And once these kick in…

3. Discomfort sets in

 

Let’s remember where you’re at. You’ve got this beautiful goal in mind… but now there’s this limiting belief is keeping you afraid and making you believe it’s too hard to achieve your goals.

This causes you unbelievable discomfort — both mental and emotional.

In fact, when you sit with it, it’s actually physically uncomfortable to want to chase a goal while you won’t take action.

But this leads to the next very well known stage of the cycle…

4. You start making Excuses

 

We’ve now got to convince ourselves of why we can’t achieve that goal. 

We have to come up with a “logical” reason why we can’t take action.

And the excuses are usually horribly weak.

Things like…

“Oh, well it’s just not a good time – I’m so busy and all”

“Well I probably wouldn’t be successful anyways so…”

“I’ll just be made fun of and attacked… I can’t take the stress”

But you KNOW that you’re strong and talented enough.

You know that these excuses are flimsy at best.

And so, to distract yourself, you turn to…

5. Procrastination activities

 

This is where you turn to mindlessly scrolling through Instagram

Binging Netflix and YouTube videos.

Finding someone to argue politics with.

Complaining, drinking, playing on your phone for hours and hours…

How to eliminate The Procrastination Cycle and take massive action…

If you’re fed up with this self-destructive pattern…

Fed up with feeling like something’s wrong with you

Then listen close to this:

Everything makes sense once you dissolve the beliefs that are behind your inaction and unworthiness.

And it actually happens fast once you can see the Procrastination Cycle play out in your own life…

You struggle with beliefs like:

I can’t deal with failing

This is beyond my abilities and skills

It’s too difficult to make a decision

And these rules or assumptions are different for each person, making your way of procrastinating and distracting yourself unique.
