I am loving The Prompt link up today as the theme is
Procrastination
Now I have to say its it something I am guilty of at times. I guess in our busy lives most of us are.
We procrastinate about little things like empty the dishwasher or change the beds or bigger things.
I do wonder what the difference between men and woman are in the procrastination stakes lol.
To me my husband is so guilty of it in the DIY department. I make lists of jobs to do and I show him all the time. He reads and thinks and then a plan is made. Tomorrow we will start and I will do XYZ for sure. The tomorrow comes and do they get done no would be the answer!!!
For me the biggest procrastination in my life is my weight. I lost a lot of weight back in 1995 and I was so lovely and slim. I promised myself I would never ever gain it back. Then a few pounds crept back and a few more. It was always " OK next week I am going to get back on my diet" but I never fully did. So the years passed and a few more and a few more until now I am heavier than when I started sighhhhh
Plus over the years I got older and things drop you know as you get older !!! and I have a few health issues which mean my mobility has got really bad. So gone are the hours at the gym and all those fitness classes I used to love. Oh how I long for those step classes I used to do.
I have to stop procrastinating as time slips past so fast the older you get. You used to think you had all the time in the world to do everything. Now I am think gosh get on with it before its too late.
So I did good today I did not procrastinate about writing a blog post I sat down and wrote this and joined in, so I am patting myself on the back.
As for the diet I am back on it and it may be slower than it was but slow and steady wins the race !
Well done for getting this post written - it's the little things, as you say! I can imagine that perspectives change over time too. I'm 37 and already the years are whizzing by at twice the speed they were a decade ago! xx #theprompt
ReplyDeleteThanks maddy yes i got a blog post out todAy and changed the bed sheets lol
DeleteSlow and steady for sure. It's so easy for that weight to creep up.Good luck getting it all off again!
ReplyDeleteYes you are right fingers crossed for me lol
DeleteIt's so easy to put things off, and time really does slip away so quickly. I do think that taking small steps is the way to go. Good luck :) Thanks so much for sharing with #ThePrompt x
ReplyDeleteSo true time does slip away so fast
DeleteI agree with you - I am always saying 'tomorrow I will do such-and-such' and much of the time tomorrow never comes. I am certain that you will get motivated, just keep going. It kind of reminds me of a t-shirt I bought Ross once. It says 'Procrastinators of the World unite...tomorrow'! Thank you for linking to #PoCoLo, it is lovely to see you. Hope to see you again tomorrow x
ReplyDeleteLove that saying lol think I need to write that on the wall
DeleteI literally start a diet, healthy eating, exercise every Monday without fail. I'm the same, really need to start and stick to it and stop putting it off x
