Procrastination: How I Got Rid Of It

I’ve been wanting to get back to blogging. And since the past 17 days, I kept telling myself, I will start with an article on Medium. However, every time I sat down to write an article something came up. Either I was too tired or too busy or too out of focus or too ‘something’. Even now when I sat down to type an article — the little voice in my head reminded me once again why I wasn’t ready.

I sat down.

I thought.

I was about to close the browser and do something else because after all, I wasn’t ready.

I waited.

And then I was like… Seriously….. what nonsense is this? Ain't I supposed to be the “Personal Branding Expert” blah blah who gives people advice on social media?

How can I give advice & not walk my talk?

So, I decided enough is enough.

Here is my article.

It may be crap.
It may be pointless.
It may have grammatical errors.
It may be stupid.

What the hell.

I needed to do this not for anyone but for myself.

Just for me.

So here goes.
