Feelings. Your Obstacle-Busting Inner Guidance System

Have you ever noticed that you are procrastinating and putting something off?  How do you feel about it and about you?  There is a signal in there waiting to tell you something!

I know you have lots of self-talk and perhaps hear a lecturing voice that says, "You HAVE to get that thing done! What's wrong with you?"  Perhaps you say to others "I just can't seem to get this project done."  What you have is a roadblock between you and completion, satisfaction, accomplishment and happiness.

I coach the women solopreneurs I work with on variations on this theme.  Let me share some techniques and perspectives that might be helpful to you. These come to you directly from a coaching session today! 

First, consider that behind the procrastination are feelings.  Secondly, the act of procrastinating and putting out the energy to not do this "thing" generates feelings.  Those feelings are a huge clue to what's standing in the way.  You have a built in, factory-installed, obstacle-busting Inner Guidance System!  It's your feelings!  Feelings are emotions like mad, sad, glad, shame, fear.
