How many ways do you find to procrastinate? Lately, I have become an expert! I think we all procrastinate about various tasks. I procrastinate when making the decision about what to have for dinner. I don’t even think about it until I am in the grocery store at 5:00 p.m. I procrastinate cleaning out drawers, closets, piles of papers, etc. We all do; it’s human nature.
But, procrastinating about the future is never a good thing. We all know how quickly time goes by. I can remember my children waiting for the school bus for their first day of kindergarten and now they are college graduates, employed, and living on their own! Wasn’t that yesterday?
The more people I talk to, the more they agree that time is zooming ahead at warp speed. So my message to you is, don’t procrastinate about your future. If you are thinking about making a career change, if you are considering reinventing who you are and what you do, NOW is the time.
There are many online resources available to help the best procrastinator step out of his or her shell and begin exploring options. A great place to begin this search is with self-exploration. If you can uncover what your interests are, what your personality type is, you will have taken the first step in what could be a very exciting future.
Personality Type Indicators such as the Myers-Briggs and interest inventories such as the Strong Interest Inventory can provide you with a tremendous amount of information about yourself. This information can be reviewed with a professional counselor who can help guide you towards taking your next step.
Don’t procrastinate any longer. You have no excuse! You can begin online, from the comfort of your own home. Find out as much as you can about yourself, and then get off the couch and start your next chapter! You can do it, even if you are a procrastinator!
