Here's how you can beat procrastination and meet deadlines efficiently.

Understand why you're procrastinating in the first place. Set aside time to prioritize the task rather than avoiding it. It's also important to note that we are not built to multitask multiple things at once as it denotes focus for other things. Important thing is to figure out what it is that you are avoiding, and how you can make it easier on yourself :)

One thing I’ve found helpful to beat procrastination and deadlines efficiently is scheduling them on my calendar and writing 3 reasons WHY it’s important. Understanding your WHY is crucial to beating procrastination.

1. Set a deadline. It helps to create a plan. Many times it's the internal clock that kicks out procastination. 2. Break tasks into smaller tasks, do 1 thing at a time, and just get started, thats half the battle won. Reward yourself when you complete a task, your brain will want to do that stuff more. 3. Have a accountability buddy, who will help keep you on track. Maybe have a small, healty amount of bet. No one wants to loose money, right? ?? 4. Sit with yourself, try to introspect; what leads you to procrastinate? This is easier said than done, but will certainly help in the longer run.

A definitive problem statement written is a battle half won, many time we fail to properly articulate the problem statement that triggers procrastination for many. Write down your problem statement in a very crisp and clear manner before you do anything else.

Effective time management is the key, take time to reflect on your progress, break down large tasks into manageable steps and so on.

Take the most pressing tasks off your mind and put them on physical paper (or type onto a document/note). Getting the to-do's out of the ephemeral space of your mind and into the physical world, clears your mental cache, enhances mental speed and keeps you accountable. Also and best of all, you can cross them off as you go. Set a goal to cross off X number of achievable tasks per hour.

Clear setting of goals as per the requirement and better delegation of responsibility to complete the task as per deadlines ,would be effective and productive for the organisation

En mi día a día en el trabajo, hago un listado por cada dia de la semana de mis actividades y conforme las voy cumpliendo y palomeando en mi agenda, eso me hace sentir productiva y que ningún pendiente se me está olvidando.

Follow SMART wherever possible whenever you are setting up your goals and start with 30-60-90 approach. What you can achieve in 30, 60 and 90 days, even if they are very small compared to your overall objective. Remember, this should stem from your detailed problem statement

For example, if you have a report due in a week, break it down: "Research and outline on Monday," "Write introduction on Tuesday," "Complete main body by Thursday," and "Revise and finalize on Friday." This makes the task feel more manageable and provides a clear roadmap. By setting clear, incremental goals with deadlines, you stay focused and motivated, making it easier to meet deadlines efficiently.

Personally for me to manage time during procrastination, I try to use the Pomodoro Technique. This method involves working for a set amount of time (usually 25 minutes) and then taking a short break. Repeat this cycle to stay focused and productive. Setting timers or using productivity apps can help you track your time effectively.

Use techniques like the Pomodoro Technique—work for 25 minutes, then take a 5-minute break. Schedule tasks in your calendar and set reminders. Prioritize your tasks by importance and deadlines, and tackle the most challenging ones first when your energy is highest. By allocating specific times for each task and sticking to your schedule, you can manage your time better, stay focused, and meet deadlines efficiently.

Time management is a close first of the most important things in the day to day. Having written and established procedures is crucial and always remember to allow everyone to have a saying. To have a very high performing team everyone needs to feel involved in the processes. Prioritize long term improvements over short term solutions.

Having someone to hold you accountable can significantly reduce procrastination. For example, tell a friend or colleague about your goal to complete a report by Friday. Schedule check-ins with them mid-week and the day before the deadline. Join a study group where members share their progress on individual tasks. Use accountability apps to log your tasks and track progress. Knowing that someone else is aware of your commitments can motivate you to stay on track and meet deadlines efficiently.

En mi agenda tengo los listados diarios de actividades tanto míos como de mi personal a cargo, cada día a final de turno vamos palomeando cada una de las actividades que se realizaron.

Individual accountability creates a positive impact in the working environment as each individual caters and contribute to each shared goals in the work space.It clears show decision making and performance of each .

It is always important to be aware and visible of your project deadlines. Routine and discipline is the foundation of any endeavor. Being systematic about your schedules is also very helpful.

Always show yourself appreciation for the effort you put in all you accomplish by celebrating those small wins. It didn't just happen, you made it happen.

For instance, promise yourself a treat, like a favorite snack or a short break, after finishing a small task. For larger projects, plan a bigger reward, such as a night out or a special purchase, upon completion. This creates positive reinforcement, making the process more enjoyable and encouraging you to meet deadlines efficiently. By associating accomplishments with rewards, you boost your motivation and reduce procrastination.

Rather than a reward, I prefer to find value in the things that I do at work. Be passionate enough that getting your tasks done successfully is rewarding enough for you. The challenge nowadays is that employees are not passionate enough that they only do their tasks to get rewarded — or simply because it’s a job. If employees like their job enough, joy comes within in successfully completing the tasks and that itself is a reward.

Given my unique struggles with both psychological and physical chronic diseases, I often have to stop and reflect. Just like any life, I can always expect changes. Sometimes, I can find that my issue is time management while other times triggers or unclear goals are preventing or severely interfering with my focus. Most of my major diseases are not very well understood, so I often find myself doing research and self-reflecting on ways to correct myself. Sometimes this means I need a doctor's visit for regimen adjustments and other times, it means being self-aware and providing self-criticism. If I feel my methods are not providing the improvement I wish for, I will ask friends, family, or colleagues who have more insight or experience.

Me gusta reflexionar al finalizar el turno, antes de irme a mi casa, que se realizo de manera correcta y que actividad tuvo mas complejidad para terminarse, en base a mi autocritica busco algun curso en LinkedIn para mejorar en ese aspecto.

Best way to beat procrastination is to get up and get going. Remember, it is your work, if you do not do it, no one else will.

Variables always exist outside of the workplace. Sometimes they are life-changing such as serious trauma or sudden onset of neuropsychological or physical manifestations of disease. I find that procrastination often seems unconscious or not purposeful. I can't imagine anyone I've worked with or know that says to themselves "I'm going to procrastinate on this even though it can make things more difficult for myself or others". I hear more often about their feelings of being overwhelmed or outside stressors being at the forefront of their minds. The next most common thing I've heard is avoidance of tasks without clear instructions. Many things affect meeting deadlines, and educating employees can help them understand coping mechanisms better.

Procrastination often stems from a lack of clarity or overwhelming tasks. To overcome this, it's crucial to cultivate a proactive mindset. Start by breaking down projects into smaller, actionable steps and setting specific milestones. This approach makes tasks less daunting and provides a clear path forward. Prioritize your work by focusing on high-impact activities first, and create a structured plan with deadlines to maintain accountability. Additionally, address any underlying issues such as fear of failure or perfectionism that might be contributing to procrastination. By fostering a disciplined approach and addressing root causes, you can enhance your productivity and consistently meet deadlines with greater ease.
