A short YouTube talk by David Jenyns (uploaded Aug 20, 2025) arguing that turning high-value tasks into daily rituals/routines performed at the same time reduces procrastination and makes those tasks automatic. The speaker emphasizes that people resist tasks that differ from their existing routines and that establishing consistent habits removes the need for repeated motivation.
Start habitualizing or ritualizing or systemizing or routineizing those things that are the most important things and start doing them every day at the same time. And what you'll find is that, especially in the work arena in business, if you will make rituals and routines out of the very high value things in your life every day, you'll do them at the same time automatically. Because if you think about it, you already do the same things every day at the same time automatically. When we procrastinate, what we're usually doing is resisting doing something different than we normally do. We have our routines that we're in. We're all creatures of habit. We like to do the same things at around the same times every day. And when we're procrastinating, what we're doing is going, oh, I don't really want to do that thing right now. Sometimes we don't know why we're coming up with a bunch of excuses. It's usually just because it's not a habit, it's not a routine, it's not something that we do automatically every day.
