I have a question for you. Did you know that procrastination is keenly associated with lower self esteem? Let me explain. Think about this. If you knew you couldn't fail and you knew that whatever you did would be right, wouldn't you just take action and get the results you want? Would you procrastinate? Would you wait until it was perfect? Would you wait until all the pieces were together before you took action? For most people the answer is no. And according to the latest brain research, if somebody has self esteem issues where they feel that they need to have it perfect and they need to make sure that every piece is in the right order and together, that is going to activate their stress centers in their brain. And if the stress center in the brain is activated, chances are that they are not going to take action. They are going to procrastinate. And their lack of motivation is not because they don't want to achieve their goals and dreams. They have their lack of motivations because the motivational circuit gets shut down.
