Everyone has tasks that are left for later or another day, for example, ironing, or dusting. These are things that will not impact our lives in any serious way. However, when individuals put off doing essential tasks regularly for example at work, or studies, this can have a negative impact on their lives such as loss of a job or failing a particular unit and having to re-do it.
Why do individuals procrastinate tackling a task at work, studies or anything else? A lot of the time is driving by perceiving the job as enormous and beyond their capabilities. In order to achive something, the individual must perform a set of steps to accomplish tasks. Individuals tend to look at the job and automatically go into an overwhelming state.
Hypnotherapy will help the individual to focus on the steps that get them moving by seeing new ways of tackling a task. It allows the individual to break down the task into small steps and highlights the gaps in the individual’s cognitive thinking that have kept them stuck. While in a state of relaxation, the individual can discover how negative self-talk automatically puts up a barrier that stops them from beginning a task. A positive self-dialogue will have a positive effect on an individual’s behaviour pattern.
