Breaking the Procrastination Cycle: Understand, Shift & Take Action

Have you ever had something you need to do, but keep thinking, “I’ll do it later”?

Sometimes we put things off because we feel worried, bored, overwhelmed, tired, or unsure about where to start. In this meetup, we’ll take some time to discover what might be getting in the way of getting started.

Then we’ll learn some simple tools to help us redirect those thoughts and feelings and move toward taking action.

🧠 NLP Anchor & Cue
We’ll create a simple cue—such as a word, gesture, or feeling—that reminds your mind to get into a helpful state like calm, focused, confident, or motivated. You can use your cue when you notice yourself wanting to put something off.

🌿 Guided Imagery
You’ll imagine yourself getting started, staying focused, and finishing a task. This gives your mind a chance to practice taking action before you actually do it.

✨ You’ll learn how to:

Notice when you’re procrastinating
Understand some of the reasons you might be putting things off
Use a cue to help redirect yourself
Create an anchor for motivation, focus, or confidence
Imagine yourself successfully getting started
Take one small step instead of waiting for the “perfect” time

You don’t have to change everything at once. Sometimes the most important step is simply learning how to redirect yourself and get started.
