The only effective remedy I've discovered for procrastination is... not procrastinating. Busting the habit of procrastination always comes down to sheer willpower for me.

They don't always work out for me, but I think it can help a lot to set a specific goal.

Ah yes, much patience to you on waiting for your partial; I know how that feels (I'm waiting on a full). <br /><br />I SO know what you mean by blogging and procrastination. I feel like I don't want to miss anything on the writerly blogosphere, and my WIP is suffering. I really does help to have deadlines and other motivations.Carol Riggshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14092209912983783974noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1897238162318789476.post-25296516600372854842011-01-16T09:36:55.592-05:002011-01-16T09:36:55.592-05:00Thanks so much for the award!

Sometimes having a goal helps me a lot, but sometimes the goal becomes a wall I can't get past. Like ABNA. I had a great goal (to be done in time for it), I had weekly goals set (4 chapters) to meet the goal. UGH!!! I'm not going to make it! I hope you get happy news on your partials soon!

I haven't heard about mine either, so we'll float in that boat together for a while.<br /><br />I spent last night procrastinating. Instead of writing, I searched the web, google mapped my childhood home and ended up bumming myself out. I'm definitely not doing that again, so today, I'm writing. I don't know if the process of bumming myself out helped me beat procrastination. I don't know that anything can. But at some point, I kick myself in the butt and get to work.B.E.
