Beware the Procrastination Demons
All of us have experienced procrastination in some form in
our life. We have procrastinated in our academics studying the day before an
exam. We may have procrastinated in confronting a loved one who may have
offended us and sometimes we have procrastinated in completing a project at our
job. In every case, all procrastination has led to frustration and stress and
creates an environment where your best work is not presented in excellence.
There is something about time that grants you the space to be more creative and
thoughtful. As a writer, you must beware of the procrastination demons. I call
them demons because they are initially external forces that interrupt our life
and they have the capacity to hinder the greatest writers from being released.
Let’s talk about two things these demons use to have you procrastinate from
finishing and publishing your writing project.
One of the things that procrastination demons will use is
busyness. You have to provide continual care to grandma, your dad is sick, you
have three kids in three different sports, you work more than 8 hours a day and
have a family at home, you signed up to plan the baby shower, you….go head and
fill in the blank. If your life has more demands than the time you have, you
will always put your writing project to the side because everything else will
seem more important to do.
Fear is another element that these demons will use.
Sometimes our family members do not support our vision as a writer because they
have their own thoughts about what we should be. Sometimes, we look at our
finances and realize we do not have the investment to fund the writing project.
Other times, we have our own insecurities and rejections about our self that
stems from childhood that compounds the fear already present in our life.
Therefore, we will procrastinate on the project and put it aside for another
day. At this point, we have just devalued the project.
I personally have had to vow to myself that I am an author
that writes books that should be read and I must commit some small measure of
time every day in order to accomplish this task. If we do not take our vision
to write seriously, who else will? Who will benefit from a book unwritten or
unpublished due to our lack of time management or emotional setbacks? Write the
book and cast out them demons.
