How I can stop overthinking?
Great now I cant watch the video. :D
NOIRE I can’t do the last one. It’s midnight lul
Prashant Ray get another video
Swear, I just added this vid to "watch later" without even thinking. Then I was like "damn, I guess I need this now more than ever." 😛😛
The amount of productivity videos bookmarked/added to watch later on my computer is more embarrassing than my porn search history. Ed the bestest!
Edan Khan what's ed?
same here lol
Kelly Fairman I did the same thing lol!
Funny!
I been putting off life for about 10 years. I'll get on it eventually.
Another great strategy is to make your working schedule and environment more pleasurable. Take a lot of breaks, drink coffee, eat many small meals, do yoga in breaks, jump around, open the window for fresh air, play your favorite music, dance.And of course have an organized desk and clear tasks for the day.
Wow! So, I spent a week watching videos on how to not procrastinate and etc. Yet, I couldn't start working on it. Yesterday, before sleeping, and tired of lying to myself, I finally wrote down the things I should do in the following day and the priority of each task. Turns out that today it only took me 3 hours to start doing what I should have started MONTHS ago! Writing down the stuff you gotta do is REALLY POWERFUL, it's simple but it gets you started! THANK YOU BRIAN!
andrefaaa ikr!! I have found that by writing down my list of things to do for the next day before going to bed, not only helps me get things done but also makes me sleep better because I have less stuff on my mind
@@ultimatecrusader3493 some call it a brain dump....
Because this goes beyond just thinking. You thought about it, you planned it, you wrote it, your eyes saw it, you also read it too (out loud or not, but you did) - so it got strongly emphasized to your subconscious mind
Ultimate Crusader Not me. I want to get started on it ... instead of sleeping I’m thinking of that list. I have to do it in the morning.
I have always suffered from the habit of procrastination, but I was usually able to control myself at the very last moment. But now I am in my senior year and for some reason I totally lost control and I can't even concentrate for few minutes on my studies , all of a sudden I started developing different interests in so many activities and I keep procrastinating my studies. Thank you so much your tips seem to be really helpful and I will start working on them now in shaa Allah.
Thanks
I'm in my final semester and trust me i can totally relate..
Did it work?
Queen of Da House idk what is this website you shared. Can you explain that?
And...do you have a proof that Allah is not the God and that safety is in Jesus Christ and Christianity?
Can you explain?
Keep going dear and never give up
Procrastination will be appeared in several life differently but in that moment its your turn to overcome it
Brian is a classy wise and incredibly experienced in his life ,he is the real deal . His teaching is super insightful to the human condition. I love it.
I always told my self “Do It”
Now “Do It Now” are the 3 words that will always stick with me! Thank you! 🙏👊
Being a follower of Brian Tracy for than 4 years now, I can testify how intensely and exponentially my life has changed...
May God bless you Brian
FROM NOW ON, I WILL STUDY FOR MY EXAMS AND I WILL GET GOOD RESULTS
Yeah me too.
ME TOO
It's been three years how were the exams
@@bk4927 well I don’t know if it’s because of this video or not. I honestly forgot I even watched this video. But 3 years ago I was doing my A levels in Year 13. I achieved 3 A’s in A level biology, chemistry and maths. I’m in my 3rd year of medical school right now. This is the U.K. system btw.
ME TOO
I love Brian Tracy. My life has improved exponentially since I discovered his audiobooks. Thank you!
which one??
Look of all them up mate - take a pick.
Look of all them up mate - take a pick.
Jerkster have you watched any of Patrick Bet-David's videos at Valuetainment? Check him out. Solid content.
Alvin Dueck Yeah he's too much of a car salesman and goes of in tangent too much.
This was unexpectedly useful. I think doing a check list helps, as long as you actually do the things in the list. The only way to move forward in life is getting proactive. I have paid a high price for procrastinating in my life, so I need to break this horrible habit if I want to be successful. There is no doubt in my mind now, what has prevented me from success is Procrastinating, so I'm taking my life back now. Amen!
How is it going?
His analogy of eating the frog was interesting. I used to be a caregiver and as you can imagine, had some very unpleasant tasks to perform. I would always say to myself, "Don't think about it, just do it and you can always wash your hands." That would get me through even the worst tasks I had to perform. I never ever dreamed that I could apply the same principle to avoid procrastination! Truly life changing for me!
SCRIPT FOR THIS ENTIRE VIDEO: How to Overcome Procrastination - Brian Tracy - UA-cam
If you do things in the right way you will get whatever results you desire.
Change your thinking. Say to yourself, "Do it now"
Here's a trick for pulling yourself away from the temptation to procrastinate.
Just say the words, Do it now. Do it now. Do it now.
These magic words will motivate you and push you to get started.
When you repeat these words "Do it Now" often enough the message will get pushed deep into your subconscious and act as a trigger for getting things done right away.
If you spend all of your time thinking about how your habit of chronic procrastination gets in the way of all of your goals, motivation and dreams then your subconscious mind will accept that as the truth and that's how your life will continue to be.
If instead you spend your time thinking about how wonderful you are at getting difficult and important tasks done right away and how incredibly organized you are with your time.
Then your subconscious mind will come to accept that as the truth and you will start doing more of those things that overcome procrastination and get more things done faster.
So that's the first critical step in not only changing your habit of procrastination but any habit in general. Change your thinking.
The next strategy is from his best selling book on time management, Eat that Frog, and it is this. If you have to eat more than one live frog. That's what I like to call a daunting project or task, a live frog. You should eat the ugliest frog first and you should do it right away without any delay. It doesn't do you any good to stare at the ugly live frog in front of you, this big task. Simply resolve to take action and get it over with. Your entire life will be uninhibited by the daunting tasks that once prevented you from moving forward.
It's important to remember that you cannot manage time.
Time exists completely out of our control. So you can't manage time. What you can do is manage your life.
Time management is really life management. It is the management of the sequence of events in your life.
It's the ability to choose what you do first, what you do second and what you do later if at all and in this ability to choose lies your entire life.
When you choose the most important thing and you choose to do that first. And you choose to do that rather than anything else.
You immediately put your life onto the fast track. In fact you can actually double your productivity, performance and output in one day simply by changing your order of choices in the way that you use your time.
Now let's talk about the best way to use our time in order to move us closer to our goals.
How to Use Your Time Effectively: The way to do this is by developing a single minded focus on the things you need to do that will have the most important and beneficial impact on your life right now.
Whenever you're faced with a task you must ask yourself,
What are the consequences of doing or not doing this?
And if the consequences of not doing something are irrelevant then don't do it. And do the things that have serious, immediate consequences.
So here's what you should do each morning to set yourself up for success and to determine which task you need to get started on right away to make a sizable difference in your life.
Plan each day in advance. Take time each morning to address your major goals and then write out a list of the things you need to do that day in order to get closer to those goals.
Set priorities on each item so you don't skip your most important tasks and then get to it.
When you jump right into the work day and start on something really important right away the level at which you work for the rest of the day will be increased.
Before you wrap up I'd like to leave you with a thought to share with your friends and followers.
If you do the right things in the right way, you will get whatever results you desire.
One final question. What is one critical task that you've been putting off?
And what will you do TODAY to start working on that task?
Remember if you want to change your future.
Take action and take action NOW.
Summary: - Change your thinking: say to yourself over and over '' do it now" - start with the most difficult task first - focus on the most important things in your life - plan each day: goals, timing, priorities - TAKE ACTION NOW! DO IT NOW!
thanks man
thanks
Why would you take the time to do this?
@@eow4317 because hes a hero
👏 👏 👏
Getting up at 5 am and going for jogging is the thing that I am putting off. Before going to bed I write on paper 'tomorrow morning I get up at 5 and go for jogging'. Then I will do it no matter how do I feel. Thanks Brain Tracy sir for this valuable video
did u do it? did you do it??
+Debra Goring yes I did it
Haha! thanks for replying. good for you! :D
Much very luck! :O) x
good luck
I have heard the word procrastination before but never tried to know the meaning of it but today one of my friends has suggested me to do procrastination while I was in the training in a new organisation and watch the video. Finally It happened I did it after I reached at home.
And From past 2 years or more I have been putting off my preparation for Civil services and didn't go to any institute to get my coaching started. so now today I'm going to collect all the information and all about my coaching/career and will plan it accordingly from today. Thank you so much for this video! 💯🏄🙏
Do it now! Do it now! Do it now! (I use this mantra Now). Thank you Brian Sir!
Yup, right NOW! Not later
Mine is a little more hardcore : I have a post-it on my computer screen "Do or Die". =)
Rizwan Qamar I usually tell myself the same thing I taught my cousin's two older boys when I's training them for baseball. Ya GOTTA get after it. (the ball).
I always say to myself, "Make like Nike and just do it."
I have been putting a lot of tasks off. Starting with my own health, by not working out, to my studies. I get my studies done at the last second. I procrastinate the whole day, and when my mom falls asleep on the sofa next to me, I start working or studying for exams. I set entertainment priority, which is wrong. I am smart, but I have been getting lower grades as of late. Not only because the gcse course is difficult, but also because I haven't been studying as much. I am getting low grades in business studies and computer science, which are my favourite subjects. I am not a good programmer, because I do not practice enough. So, I shall start today, right now actually. I shall start revising for my exams and setting my priorities straight- school, health, my family. Thank you. And I hope you have a good day, Mr. Brian Tracy. I listen to this everyday, you inspire me a lot!
From this video, I learned that I should change my way of thinking.
I often tell others how procrastination hinders me getting things done or started, so I thank you for the advice.
Much appreciated 😀
Love the 'Do It Now" philosophy, I have been working with it for years, Thanks for your influence Brian!!

I have to work on getting up at 6 am in morning.
Thank you.
So do I.
Dr.hemant Adikane hello , this is how i got here, too !
i started in January and tried all kinds of approaches, but it just did not work. and now with beginning of November, the grey, misty, cold, uncomfortable month, i got up at 6! Finally!
Keep trying!
maybe you can comment what worked for you?
motivating regards!
That's my goal! I thinks it's more important that anything to get up in the morning and exercise to start the day off. But it's such a hit and miss for me :( I only wake up at that time maybe once or twice a week.
Dr.hemant Adikane what worked for me was to set your alarm clock half an hour earlier every Sonday night. this allows you to use one entire week to getting up at that time. don't turn it off for the weekend, you gotta keep at it.
also, it does take a level of self discipline. don't allow yourself to hit the snooze button. so I moved my radio in an area where I HAD to get up and out of bed to turn it off.
Alvin Dueck i want to wake up at 5:00AM. Please help me somehow
Thank you, Mr. Tracy.
Your Videos always make me feel so much better. My life already became more productive and organised. Thank you Brian x
You are amazing Brian Tracy!thank you
Do it now! I'm not a person that procrastinate a lot, but sometimes I do. But from now on, this will be on my mind! Thank you
Thank you Mr. Tracy. Your precious advice will serve to change the lives of many people.
May God bless you Mr. Tracy! I’ve been following your channel for years and I thank you a lot for your teaching and thank God for inspiring you to inspire us. May you be very healthy and well. Thanks from Mexico City, Mayra :)
It could never have come at a better time. Thank you Brian, really needed for me at this time of my life. Thanks again.
thanks you so much, Brian.
I hope these short tips will help me change my days better
I've been wanting to start my chiropractic care again. The only chiropractors I can find that take my insurance are so far from my home the drive time isn't worth the care. Or so I've been telling myself.
Watching this video made me search for new chiropractors in my area and there are 2 new ones but they don't take my insurance either. So I went back to my list and explored the self-pay option with several of them. The cost is not in my budget but I'm looking into removing a few things I really don't need in it to cover the cost.
So this video inspired me to take that action. Thank You So Much, BT. You're Awesome!
One of my best authors ..wonderful lessons
Your lectures are a source of great inspiration for me, sir.
thanks so much brian Tracy

Love this man
thank you Brian.
This video is so helpful. Thank you so much sharing your wisdom willingly.
Brian You are great Sir.. You are the best i have listened to.. Thanks for spreading all this knowledge & positivism
Good morning.. I'm Luvander Hollaway. I just watched the video on how to overcome procrastination. I'm an artist, I love the draw, and I have people that want drawings from me. I've agreed to those drawings, but those drawings have never come to existence because of the fear of me not being able to do it. I've had this fear in the past, but when I actually push through and did it, I realized that I was really good at it. Now a similar job, and my subconscious is thinking about everything that can go wrong with it, instead of how good it will look once I finish it. I've been procrastinating this art business for a few years now. I would have some glitches of motivation, but it will be quickly taken down by the fear of failing. After looking at this video, those simple steps that you suggest, really has me thinking differently now. Changing my habits or changing what I do first should I say, telling myself I can do it or getting the big frog out of the picture so that I can see the beauty of that frog on the other side. I just need to know what steps can I possibly take to keep me thinking like this. Do I need to change my scenery? Thank you for listening
Awesome is the word!!!
I will do it now!!!
Procrastination is a thief of Time.
Thanks a lot for all your advices. I make your movies my bright stars to follow.
Thanks Dr. Brian

Out of all of the so called self help gurus out there, Brian Tracy is the one I keep coming back to. A lot of his advice is common sense and simple but that's what makes it so great.

I have to create a demonstration lesson for a middle school. I have been putting this off, as it feels huge. Today I am going to break it down into steps, prioritize them, and then get the first step done.
God bless you brian
