6 Steps to Beat Procrastination

     Procrastination, by far one of the biggest problems plaguing filmmakers, students, and artists alike. Animation mentor provides 6 steps to beat procrastination. First is to step back, analyze what you have to do with a good idea of what you have to do. Second is to make a list, so you dont end up forgetting what you are working on.  Third is to avoid the internet, it is very easy to get distracted, and before you know it hours have passed. Fourth do the most difficult things first! Don't let yourself take too much time on the easy stuff. Fifth, don't forget to plan, planning allows you to give yourself direction, so you don't forget what you are tackling as well as make a job much easier. Sixth is to break it down! One big task can be very intimidating, but breaking it down into small pieces will make it much easier and less of a huge hurdle to jump.

     I think that these steps would really benefit me and a lot of other people who can never seem to "find time" to work. I constantly find myself procrastinating, and you can definitely see where it takes a toll in my work and in the work of others. I will definitely be applying this throughout this year, to better my work productivity.
