This is heaven sent. I’ve been in this “procrastination slump” for the past 2 years since I had a bad experience at a horrible company. Now it’s also affecting my home life. You are the best Mel Robbins!

It’s my 11th year. Believe it or not. 😢 let’s get moving

It is so true. I have been stressed ALL my life, until within the last year I got rid of all the narcissists, and it did not matter who it was. I got rid of family members, friends, and foes. The peace struck me as strange, until I started to meditate. Thanks Mel. Can you visit my church?

Mel. Thankyou I listened. And just did it Plugged into The matrix. Lol. 54321 finished paying my parking ticket. Breatheee. Just do it. Done. Yes. Sent blessings with my money to the city 🤟🏻😍🤟🏽. Then I completed my chores. Three hrs. Phone calls scans. Now can do my nails no guilt. Quit shoulding on myself. Now time to put aside on paper let it go. Burn it release and forgive. Time to forgive me first. Ground. Forgiveness ritual and gratitude. Gratitude. And back to thank you. ❤

You had a very productive day well done!

I have never related to a video so much. Wow. Like every single second of this video describes me for the past few years. Thank you so much for talking about this Mel!! Just bought the 5 second rule book and I can't wait.

Truly thankful ❤❤❤ I'm waiting 🙏........i procrastinate and say bas things to me

I love you Mel Robbins ❤️❤️❤️❤️ thank you so much for this, I'll sharing this with the world, all my contacts. This was so relatable for a master procrastinator. I can't appreciate you enough. God bless 🙏🏾

THANK YOU! But I don't think it's always because of pressure we put on ourselves (self-employed or similar?). Most of us answer to others, and that's the major source of stress, other than things like health, money, and other real, genuine factors. Employers who have astonishing demands are not the same thing as paralysis from your own perfectionism. It's a demoralizing, normal way of being and it's quite real, not something self-imposed.

Isn't perfectionism paralysis a form of self-imposed stress?

Thank you Mel, I really needed to hear this❤

I’m am the most organised person ever but when overloaded I just lose track & have the longest to-do list. Yes it is avoiding any extra stress and now i understand that 😊

Im a fan from Philippines . Thank you very much your videos help me a lot

OMG, Mel, you just described the hamster wheel I have been on and cannot get off of….Thank you 💕

Dr. Tim Pychyl, the researcher you’re citing, his name is pronounced like “pitchel”. He has a great podcast called “iprocrastinate podcast”.

SO TRUE❤

Groundbreaking!

im procrastinating for 3 yrs not because im lazy but because of horrible anxiety im dealing with every day.

100%agreed

I suffer from this every day. Being a 71yr.old woman, who can do everything myself, but because of not being to concentrate, I can not do paperwork. It takes me days to go through my junk mail, and bills. It’s easy for me to clean and organize my home, and keep Doctors appointments, but my paperwork piles up😔it makes me sad. My Doctor asked me if I would like a “Caregiver?”

Me too. Apparently it’s part of Lyme. I learn by watching and doing the computer Pppwk triggers me. I’ve learned to push thru and better organize so the clutter is going. I think my brain is rebelling from so many years of working it so hard. I learn better now with binaural beats for few minutes.

Possibly adhd. Maybe do it as soon as it arrives. If you’re retired you have the time and just deal with there and then 😊

Do you think that having ADHD also has something to do with procrastination? Always beat myself up for things I didn't do or things I should be doing.

This has been the “catch all” diagnosis in 2023. Lots of ads and courses to buy to help you with your ADHD. Reminds me, when the restless leg syndrome came out, and everyone thought they had it and then there was a drug for it. For me, at least I would like to have a professional diagnosis if I do have ADHD but till then I know what my work ethic has been in the past I just need to get my butt in gear. Having Mel Robert’s advice does puts into perspective, what I’ve been feeling and how I can take care of it.

Having ADHD does have tendencies to sabotage yourself plans, ideas, and also, with relationships! Negative self thoughts, and unforgiveness!

As you know me a bit of my honest humor Mel 😁

Mel I have to just say I love you my friend. I’m 62, female, mother, retired 20 deputy. I’m okay (( twins))this world is crazy 😜 💕How I made it this far, blows my mind. 🙏
