My best tips to beat procrastination

DENISE DUFFIELD-THOMAS
About this episode

I’ve struggled with procrastination my whole life, especially in business.

 

I’ve even created courses on beating procrastination, but it’s something that regularly gets in my way.

 

I know this is a big pain point for a lot of entrepreneurs, especially those with ADHD like me, so I’m sharing my tips and tricks on taking action when you least feel like it.

 

Although I might look like a very organized and focused person, the truth is, I’m not. However, I can get a lot done by playing to my strengths and using some of the techniques in today’s podcast.
