Many designers out there looking for perfection and procrastination has a big excuse to go further in this podcast. I'm going to tell you that in a very very shorter way. First, let's understand why procrastination is coming in picture it's because you don't have a proper goal. Why are you in this field of product design and UI UX design? Second, your highest value and your highest priority in your life is not matching with the activities what you do. This is the ultimate two reasons why do you really have a procrastination? Third, it could be you're not in an environment where you're not nurtured properly with enough of your creativity and skills which is leading to design and creativity. The reason because you have choice the wrong people, you have choiced the wrong program, you are in the wrong place so that you are not properly motivated enough to keep in that circumstances. Remember, your environment is stronger than your willpower. So however skill set and willpower you have also your environments take over. Okay? The third is very important and the fourth important reason is people are allude and confused with the environment of the people around them. Like let's say the thoughts, the opinions, the discussions, what they have with their friends, family and other people do take it over them and they don't take any action. And this is the main, main 4 reasons why people are not able to take action and still they procrastinate. Okay Jagdish, how to overcome. You have to set a very clear, specific, measurable, achievable, relevant time bound goals. And you also have to take a value determination process called Demartini value. I'll be pasting this link in the description. You can able to take that if you do it two together. And after this you have to write every day for the next 31 days 10 goals which you wanted to achieve in the next one year. Okay? In a specific, measurable, achievable, relevant time bound format. And also you need to write down seven areas of your life, the goals. It's not only you're going to get only salary, design, job, etc. Etc. You have to write about about your health, your family lifestyle, your profession, your. Your wealth, your spiritual life, your social life. Everything needs to come into that goals. Because every single day, 10 goals. If you write continuously for 31 days, I'm sure whatever you're thinking for the next six months to be done, you can get it done in just 31 days. All you have to do is open a spiral diary write 10 goals every single day in the morning before you start the day, do this in the morning, review it in the evening before you go to bed and do this continuously for 31 days. I'm telling you, there is no word called procrastination will ever come into your. I can talk about procrastination for hours, but this is the whole context and the essence of why people are procrastinating. It's because of the goals. It's because of the values missing. It's because of their allude by their environment. And it's also alluded by the opinions of others. Okay, I wish you all the best. Take action. I hope you will. All the best. Bye Bye.
