THEN TRY THIS |

|
Spend 30 minutes on it
|
I don’t like doing it |
|
Do one thing you don’t like Do one thing you do like, etc.
|
It takes too long |
|
Time it to see how long it really takes
|
I’ll do it later |
|
Do it in your “prime-time”
|
Takes too much time |
|
Make a spot for it to work on it a little at a time
|
I’ll put it away later |
|
Put it where it belongs now – then you’re done!
|
Only I can do it |
|
“SHOWER” Power: Show,Help,Observe/Watch,Encourage,Release it
|
I don’t want to do it |
|

|
I don’t want to start it |
|
Start today: reserve and plan time each day ‘til done

Something else is more important |
|
