a simple way to promote action
I agree - many of us try to complicate action by creating complex systems to organise our actions, and then we spend so much time and energy on the system, not leaving enough of either to complete our actions!
Have you heard of The Daybook? As far as I can find it’s the simplest system for organising yourself. You don’t need to charge it or turn it on, you don’t need to attend a seminar to learn to use it, there’s no shuffling of pages, and you never run out of writing space. My husband and I created it for oursleves a decade ago now, and then others wanted it too. Check out our website at www.qapublishing.com.au for more info.
And if there’s no organising system that helps you to get things done, then you really need to look at yourself. It might be that you’re dominated by a part of your personality that just loves procrastination or is afraid of achievement. But the good news is you can learn to unearth a part who loves to act! If you’re into the psychology behind what determines our behaviours, including our ability or inability to act, then check out my web site www.voicedialogue.com.
