Ending Procrastination:

Perseverance is about as important to achievement as gasoline is to driving a car. Sure, there will be times when you feel like you’re spinning your wheels, but you’ll always get out of the rut with genuine perseverance. Without it, you won’t even be able to start your engine. The opposite of perseverance is procrastination. Perseverance means you never quit.

Procrastination usually means you never get started, although the inability to finish something is also a form of procrastination. Ask people why they procrastinate and you’ll often hear something like this:

“I’m a perfectionist. Everything has to be just right before I can get down to work. No distractions, not too much noise, no telephone calls interrupting me, and of course I have to be feeling well physically, too. I can’t work when I have a headache.”

The other end of procrastination – being unable to finish – also has a perfectionist explanation:

“I’m just never satisfied. I’m my own harshest critic. If all the i’s aren’t dotted and all the t’s aren’t crossed, I just can’t consider that I’m done. That’s just the way I am, and I’ll probably never change.”

In today’s fast paced world you need to be a go getter getting work done and pushing through any obstacles that may lay ahead.
