To get out of a chronic state of procrastination, it’s important to get moving. When you’re just beginning, this means doing ANTHING different. Start by getting your body moving. This step alone can cure a great deal of ennui immediately. Stand up if you are sitting.
Yes, right now. STAND UP!
Now do two or more of the following in rapid succession:
• Move to another seat, and then
• sit on the floor, or the table
• Take a walk around your immediate surroundings, even if it’s only a lap around your chair
• Whistle
• Stretch your hands above your head, and then swing them down to your sides
• Make a funny face
• Shrug your shoulders up and down
• Sing: briefly, loudly and off key
• Dance
Doing just one or any combination of these activities immediately shifts your energy. Notice that shift, feel the novelty of the unfamiliar activity, and let that fresh energy fuel the next subsequent purposeful action.
