When Procrastination Turns Into 5 Years
When Procrastination Turns into 5 Years
Once upon a time, you had a dream - a desire inside you - to start a business, ask for a promotion, create an online program, start a podcast, lead a group of women, write a book, etc.….etc.. You knew you were created to make a bigger impact, and yet, here you are 5 years later still stuck and procrastinating.
I SEE YOU. You know you should be further along - but you don’t know WHY you’re NOT?
I feel you, friend. I have lived it too. And the cost was great. I lost so much valuable time, opportunities, joy, and money by staying stuck. You see, I bought the programs I needed to learn the skill sets that I lacked. Then I would take several steps forward only to freeze and abandon the next step. My inner-skeptic would say, “this is too risky”, so I would pull back from any forward progress, stay in my crippling comfort zone, and get so disappointed in myself. It was a vicious cycle I felt I could not escape- ugh!
And now here you are, just like me, filled to the brim with dreams, skills, passion, possibilities, and potential. And yet, you are stuck - hiding behind your doubts, and playing small. You feel the pull to rise up, BUT you continue PROCRASTINATING, spinning in your head, self-sabotaging your forward progress, and slaving in your “proving syndrome!”
And your inner critic echoes:
“You don't deserve it - yet.”
“You don’t know enough - yet.”
“You are not qualified - yet.”
“You are not good enough - yet.”
DOES THIS SOUND FAMILIAR?
I know how you feel. I lived there for a really long time -- constantly doubting and questioning my ability: “Why can’t you just do it, Ashley? Why can’t you just put on your big girl pants and do it?” UGH!
I clearly knew I had all the potential and skills and yet I did not feel I was adequate - therefore, 5 years later I was still procrastinating!!!
So what happened?
Glad you asked. I discovered I could not heal and clear away my inner-blocks with just skills. So, one thing I began to do was --- I finally stopped turning away from my feelings and started turning towards them. (I know scary, right.) But once I began to lean in I realized my feelings were not scary nor bad nor would they “take me out”, but they held the power to a piece of my authentic freedom. The more I leaned in, I began to uncover, clear away, and release old vows and “default identities” that were keeping me living in fear, inadequacy, and shame. I began to listen, get curious, honor, love, and accept the real authentic parts of me that wanted to be seen and heard. I stopped rejecting myself and started accepting and loving all of me. And then I began to emerge in my authentic confidence and power. It was not a one and done. It was a journey.
I did not think it was possible for me to stand in my confidence; charge my worth, nor show up in a bigger more impactful way! BUT IT WAS.
I learned and implemented the MISSING PIECE and I am living proof that IT IS POSSIBLE FOR YOU TOO.
AND THANK GOD, I DID NOT SPEND ANOTHER 5 YEARS MISSING OUT! And you don't have to either.
