A boy standing at the starting line (Success Through Failure episode 317: Defeating Procrastination: Tactics to Boost Productivity Even When You Don't Feel Like It)Do you procrastinate? Do you know there’s more potential inside of you if you could just get to work even when you don’t feel like it?

Through years of experiencing procrastination myself and engaging with world-class personalities in business and sports, I’ve discovered the tools and tactics that can effectively reduce the friction to boost your productivity— even when you don’t feel like it.

In this episode, I’ll be sharing with you the 9 reasons why we procrastinate and the actionable strategies you can use so you can finally defeat procrastination and empty your to-do list in a breeze.
