Episode 201 - Master Procrastination
Why do we procrastinate?
In this episode, Kellan talks about Procrastination – why we procrastinate, how it affects our journey, and how we can overcome it. Procrastination can happen for a multitude of reasons, one of which is fear – we are afraid that we will be doing something that won’t work, and therefore putting it off is a way to avoid that possible failure. Another reason is that it’s simply a habit that we’ve formed.
Kellan tells us that procrastination can have a devastating impact on our journey – if you procrastinate through your life, and you put everything off, you will die without ever discovering and utilizing your gifts and talents. You will die with your music inside.
The two greatest forces fighting against us are fear and habit. If you can take control and overcome those forces, you will be taking another giant leap towards Your Ultimate Life.
