Corwin CJ Moneyway Johnson and a co-host discuss why people procrastinate and get stuck. They explore subconscious habits, the excuses we make, and how past hurt shapes avoidance, including one speaker's own delay in finishing a book.
And I really talk about it and frame it that way because if you follow this method, you'll be able to work through your stuckness. So that's, that's kind of what I'm all about. I really try to help people and really be where they're at.
Like, you know, like where sometimes the words say where he takes us where we're at, you know, where we was in sin and we was doing this and that and but he still took it for what he said. So I like that analogy that you use. One thing that you said too, when you started off, procrastination. I think that's a good one that a lot of people do, even myself. You procrastinate knowing that you have some things to do and you put it off and you put it off and you put it off to the point sometimes you just leave it together all alone and then just come back years later like, man, I should have did this. A long time ago, you know, as you being an author, myself sometimes we begin writing. I know myself began writing and then put it down and, you know, sometimes you don't get back to it until later on down the line. Like, I should have been done that. So I know what you mean about procrastination because I am a victim of that.
A lot of excuses and rationalizations that we make, right? There's so many different barriers that get in the way of that. You know, if I, if I sat here and I said, you know, why do you think you procrastinate? Where does that come from? I'm sure you could tell me, right? So, or maybe not. And maybe that's why it's so hard to get through the stuckness because you're not aware of why it is that you procrastinate, right? So, so, so much of it also is subconscious. So much of it is routine or habit. We don't even know why we do things sometimes. I, I had just recently, I had this interchange with a friend of mine, and he said something to me that was hurtful, you know, and, and I got hurt, you know, I felt hurt and wounded. And I said to him, like, where was that coming from? Like, I, you know, I want you to understand, like, where that came from, because then I don't feel safe. I'm worried it's gonna happen again. And he's like, I don't know. I go, well, that's a problem for me, for me, because if you're not, if you're not aware of it, it's very likely that you're going to repeat that behavior.
