Introduction 
Like all forms of hindrance, procrastination, is just one way of avoiding a deeper problem, be it fear of 
failure or fear of success. As you read the book, you will realize that procrastination is a cover up, a 
tactic to get past a task that has an underlying reason: however, it is not a good enough reason to 
cripple any good chance for the future. I want you to be able to grasp those chances. 
In my adolescent years, I was always the type of person who planned ahead--a planner who wouldn’t 
go for any less unless the outcome was nothing, if not the best. I had this innate will to succeed, this 
driving force to prosper in all aspects of my life. I thrive on having a goal in mind, and with all my 
capacities, work on those aims with the best habits to showcase. I am an initiator, motivator, and 
continue to be one in every day of my life.

Identifying Procrastination 
Procrastination and its Definitions 
By the end of your reading, you will learn to break through habitual tendencies that deter you from 
achieving goals. If you realize that you are a procrastinator, if you are one who considers this to be a 
major roadblock, but also one who wishes to transform this quality to productivity, then I’m here to 
help you realize your drawbacks and obtain your purposes 
Before we move forward, let me ask you: Do you really know the exact definition of the word 
procrastination? The first word that perhaps comes to your mind is delay. But here, I will be 
expounding on that. In fact, there are several definitions. 
The word “procrastination” roots from combining two Latin words. These two are: pro (definition: 
forward), and crastinus (definition: belonging to tomorrow). If you notice, the act of procrastination 
did not just rise in recent times; it too has lingered among our ancestors. In fact, the Egyptians 
represented it into two meanings: first, a valuable habit of avoiding needless work, and second, a 
negative habit of being lazy at completing tasks.

The Procrastination Cycle 
Procrastination is like being trapped in an endless rollercoaster ride. A procrastinator’s mood goes up 
and down, up and down until ultimately, it decelerates then finally stops. 
The Procrastination Cycle reveals to us that procrastination is an unhealthy repetition hard to get out 
once you’re trapped. But on the bright side, in every negative cycle, comes a positive one. This is the 
Doing Cycle. And it tells us the significance of the following: 
• Manage the unsupportive rules and conventions 
• Stomach your unease 
• Do away with excuses to delay 
• Don’t criticize yourself, instead stay motivated 
• Take your planning into action

Methods to Overcome Fear of Failure 
Needless worry is only poisoning your vision for outcome. So before you get into the fear state try to 
ask yourself these questions first. Embrace the chance, and be tough. 
1. How bad can it be? 
You need to analyze and visualize the best and worst outcomes that could happen, and their 
probability. A lot of people suffer from the fear of failure because they fear the unfamiliar. 
2. What if the worst happens, what am I going to do first? 
Instead of refueling negative thoughts, try to consider if someone could help you? How would you 
even handle the situation in the first place? What can I do to prevent losing control? Keep asking 
yourself, what you’re going to do next, and the next that comes after that. 
3. How can I reduce the pain if ever the worst case scenario happens? 
If indeed the worst you feared happened, try to picture out or prepare yourself to short-live the self-censure 
and misery. Acknowledge that you are just human – fragile and flawed.

  • 5. Introduction Like all forms of hindrance, procrastination, is just one way of avoiding a deeper problem, be it fear of failure or fear of success. As you read the book, you will realize that procrastination is a cover up, a tactic to get past a task that has an underlying reason: however, it is not a good enough reason to cripple any good chance for the future. I want you to be able to grasp those chances. In my adolescent years, I was always the type of person who planned ahead--a planner who wouldn’t go for any less unless the outcome was nothing, if not the best. I had this innate will to succeed, this driving force to prosper in all aspects of my life. I thrive on having a goal in mind, and with all my capacities, work on those aims with the best habits to showcase. I am an initiator, motivator, and continue to be one in every day of my life.

  • 6. Identifying Procrastination Procrastination and its Definitions By the end of your reading, you will learn to break through habitual tendencies that deter you from achieving goals. If you realize that you are a procrastinator, if you are one who considers this to be a major roadblock, but also one who wishes to transform this quality to productivity, then I’m here to help you realize your drawbacks and obtain your purposes Before we move forward, let me ask you: Do you really know the exact definition of the word procrastination? The first word that perhaps comes to your mind is delay. But here, I will be expounding on that. In fact, there are several definitions. The word “procrastination” roots from combining two Latin words. These two are: pro (definition: forward), and crastinus (definition: belonging to tomorrow). If you notice, the act of procrastination did not just rise in recent times; it too has lingered among our ancestors. In fact, the Egyptians represented it into two meanings: first, a valuable habit of avoiding needless work, and second, a negative habit of being lazy at completing tasks.

  • 7. The Procrastination Cycle Procrastination is like being trapped in an endless rollercoaster ride. A procrastinator’s mood goes up and down, up and down until ultimately, it decelerates then finally stops. The Procrastination Cycle reveals to us that procrastination is an unhealthy repetition hard to get out once you’re trapped. But on the bright side, in every negative cycle, comes a positive one. This is the Doing Cycle. And it tells us the significance of the following: • Manage the unsupportive rules and conventions • Stomach your unease • Do away with excuses to delay • Don’t criticize yourself, instead stay motivated • Take your planning into action Get the full copy on http://www.amazon.com/The-Introverts-Social- Survival-Guide-ebook/dp/B00N3JGJGO Copyright © 2014 Eliza Palmer
  • 8. Methods to Overcome Fear of Failure Needless worry is only poisoning your vision for outcome. So before you get into the fear state try to ask yourself these questions first. Embrace the chance, and be tough. 1. How bad can it be? You need to analyze and visualize the best and worst outcomes that could happen, and their probability. A lot of people suffer from the fear of failure because they fear the unfamiliar. 2. What if the worst happens, what am I going to do first? Instead of refueling negative thoughts, try to consider if someone could help you? How would you even handle the situation in the first place? What can I do to prevent losing control? Keep asking yourself, what you’re going to do next, and the next that comes after that. 3. How can I reduce the pain if ever the worst case scenario happens? If indeed the worst you feared happened, try to picture out or prepare yourself to short-live the self-censure and misery. Acknowledge that you are just human – fragile and flawed.
