Are you living your life or still thinking about it?

“You see, in life, lots of people know what to do, but few people actually do what they know. Knowing is not enough! You must take action.” - Tony Robbins

One of the biggest challenges with procrastination is that it makes you feel out of control. When you feel like life is controlling you, you will inevitable face some tough challenges in all areas of your life. You will have problems within yourself that you will find increasingly difficult to handle effectively. Procrastination is like weeds in your garden. At first you barely notice them until you wake up one morning to find that the weeds have taken your garden. Without an effective strategy to face procrastination head on and "kill" it while it's little, you will eventually have a lot more to deal with.

By developing your ability to take action; to "just do it" you develop your ability to make things happen. Successful people do things a certain way and they have a specific psychology that causes them to act almost instinctively. It is not your conditions that will determine the quality of your life, but rather your decisions about what things mean and what you need to do about it. Procrastinating and postponing will leave you stranded in a life of mediocrity where you are not all that you can be. A life where you are not truly fulfilled.

Whether you are procrastinating on big life decisions or on small annoying tasks, there is a strategy that will help you to eliminate procrastination. By learning and adopting the right psychology you will empower yourself to make the necessary changes. By discovering the cause of your behaviour you can change it and tap into your unconscious system that controls all your automatic "responses." (in)action is not a "passive read", but an action guide that not only tells you what to do, but gets you to do what you know. With a variety of exercises and action steps you are guided every step of the way to becoming more decisive and action-minded. Talk is cheap and only action gets rewarded.  

There is a saying that "the universe rewards action" and this not only true but also absolute as everything you do in life has a consequence. Like The Butterfly Effect your small actions leads to an incredibly complicated array of events and circumstances that is way beyond what you or I can possibly comprehend. Life is like a symphony and only those who take out their earplugs get to hear it. Life is like a play and only those without their eye flaps get to see it.
