How You Can Avoid Procrastination & Get Things Done

The trick is having your task already laid out before you so that when you pick it up again you know exactly what you are doing and there is nothing stopping you from proceeding. Getting started is the hardest part because it is the overcoming of inertia.

If the project is learning, you must know clearly what you will be studying and for how long. Otherwise, there is resistance from inertia because getting started what is not already rolling takes effort that is not allocated because we have too many concerns and not enough willpower or mental energy.

And if you can’t even set that up, eliminate something else for a short time (like knocking out something easy on your to do list, or focusing on a major achievement to get it off your plate), and it frees up the willpower to get the new thing started.

With this extra burst of willpower, strategically work on clearly planning out your whole path from start to finish at the very beginning with that burst of energy, so that each day you come back to it, you don’t have to muster the will to proceed or get started again.

We have finite willpower, so we cannot rely on willpower to keep us productive. We have to rely on systems and be cognizant of willpower drain.

If you find yourself procrastinating, a 5-minute nap has been proven to restore a little willpower, but you might find yourself sleeping until the next day since you may be very behind on sleep, so that’s not always a solution. Moreover, a spoonful of honey may be just what you need to recover some willpower to jumpstart your progress – use it strategically.

One of the main reasons this is so hard is because Man was not meant to be alone. If you have a well-serving wife and perhaps even household servants (difficult in western culture due to minimum wage laws) to set your path ahead, then it is much easier.

When you don’t have to manage cooking, household management, shopping, etc, then you can focus on your work. One person has to do that. The wife is better suited because the husband is better suited doing the work to bring income to the family.

Unfortunately, western women are not taught that doing household management is just as important for bringing in money to the family as the man’s going to work and bringing in the money. Western women are brainwashed to think these things are useless and meaningless, but it’s a lie. In the end, western women end up having to do all the same household work, cooking, and shopping, PLUS going to work, and come home alone, all to escape doing half of it, which they don’t even escape! The irony is hilarious.

But when you are alone at work or study and need to get started, the best course of action is as above: planning ahead, and putting it in front of you so that it takes no willpower to get started the next day.

And if you happen to be unmarried or with an unsupportive spouse, you can’t fix a damaged western woman overnight but in the meantime you can proceed as above to achieve productivity even with the absence of your partner or a supportive partner. While it isn’t as ideal as a supportive partner, it is a way to forge ahead. And as soon as possible, you can hire assistants to fill the assistant void that the wife has failed to provide.

Women obeying husbands.

I owned an insurance agency once, and all my employees, initially, were women. It was interesting; however, not once in my three years of owning it did I have to worry about disagreements between the women employees. It didn’t happen. That was because women are very good at avoiding tensions with each other when there is an acknowledged male authority. But, when there isn’t, women tend to squabble incessantly. This explains a lot of the tensions that occur between women in the church and the common oppression that happens in churches with women teachers. When women don’t respect God’s command to stay silent in the churches, there frequently will be a lack of respect for their brethren as well. Just like a child who disobeys their parents will often disobey other authorities. My best-performing salespeople were always men.

Of course, I had to deal with male and female differences constantly. Women are naturally passive, and in sales, that does not work out well. It worked well in customer service, as the women were outstanding at addressing angry male and female complaints and fixing the problems. But, because women naturally want to please in sales, this is counterproductive. People often don’t want to buy something, but a persistent man will not quit but will politely keep offering reasons to buy and will eventually persuade the customers to buy. This is very rare in women. At Allstate, the top sales agents were nearly always men. Why? Because men are aggressive, risk-takers, and are unafraid of challenges. These are not traits that God designed in your average woman. So, the average person who says, “No, I don’t want to buy,” most women will want to please them, especially if it’s a man, and they will graciously say, “I understand,” and let it go. With me, if someone told me no, I’d keep probing. If I found they had a better product and didn’t have a need, I’d let off, as I never wanted to sell someone something they didn’t need or that didn’t benefit them. But, many people said no out of ignorance because they didn’t understand or didn’t have all the facts.

That’s why women reject God’s command to stay silent in the churches and obey their husbands because older women never taught them the beautiful advantages of this. Also, it’s hard for a man to state these truths after decades of being ignored and to remain calm and not get angry. Of course, losing one’s cool and becoming angry is nearly a 100% guarantee that a person will never be convinced.

It takes a mature woman to obey God’s commands to stay silent in the church and to obey their husbands because these do not come naturally to women. Especially in today’s culture of poisonous feminine “empowerment.” Women have been trained that obeying their husbands and staying silent in the churches means they “don’t have a brain,” “you’re a robot,” “You’re a slave,” “ you don’t have a mind of your own,” “you’re stupid,” “you can’t think for yourself,” and a host of other lies that the serpent has fed women to get them to eat the poison feminist fruit and to speak in church and to refuse to obey their husbands.

Abraham told Sara they had to leave their families and friends, and he didn’t know where they were going. Most women today would have a bit of a problem with this, and that’s putting it mildly. But, Sara obeyed and called Abraham Lord. She even obeyed him when she didn’t need to, like when he told her to call her his sister so that he wouldn’t be murdered by Kings who wanted to take the beautiful Sara for their own wives.

It’s never too late to be what we should have been. God has amazing rewards for the women who obey their husbands and stay silent in the churches. Only by trusting God and obeying will they ever acquire these treasures.
