About Procrastination
Procrastination begins as our attempt to avoid what we feel might be too uncomfortable to face. When procrastination develops into a pattern of avoidance, we lose sight of our goals, and then also start to miss out on new opportunities. If you tend to procrastinate and would like to change your behavior, it is important to understand the reasons you procrastinate. You may likely benefit from learning how to improve your time management skills and how to set relevant, achievable goals for yourself.
How I Became Interested in Procrastination
Procrastination is a subject that fascinates me and is near and dear to my heart. In 1999, I developed a Procrastination Workshop in order to teach students at Columbia University how to reduce their procrastination. Through the experience of conducting the Procrastination Workshop over several years, I realized that procrastinators suffer largely in solitude, and that talking about procrastination within a supportive environment helped to get Workshop participants on their way. Since leaving Columbia University's Counseling and Psychological Services in 2006, I have continued to conduct the Procrastination Workshop with varied audiences in different venues. In my New York City-based private practice, I have also worked on a one-to-one basis with many individuals who have struggled with procrastination.
I believe that my training as a psychologist, my understanding of cognitive-behavioral therapy principles, my experience teaching people how to tackle procrastination, and my own personal understanding of what procrastinators go through help me to assist others in their battle with procrastination. I have helped many people examine their fears about moving forward and have assisted them in finding more effective and gratifying ways of working.
