4. Use the "5-Second Rule":
This will help you overcome the initial resistance to starting any task.
When you feel the urge to procrastinate, count backward from 5-4-3-2-1, and take immediate action.

5. Break Tasks into Smaller Pieces:
One of the main reasons we procrastinate is because a task seems too big and overwhelming.
To make it more manageable, break it down into smaller, more doable parts.
For example, if you have a big project, break it down into steps like researching, outlining, writing, and editing.
This way, you'll feel less overwhelmed and more motivated to get started.

6. Use the "Pareto Principle":
This will prioritize tasks and avoid procrastination.
Focus on the top 20% of your tasks that will produce 80% of your results.

7. Create a "Not To-Do" list:
This will help free up time and mental energy for more important tasks.
Identify tasks or activities that are not essential or that can be delegated, and stop doing them.
