Procrastination is the biggest impediment to our progress. When we have important work to do, we waste time on various superfluous activities, which prevents us from maintaining diligence in achieving our goals.
Without proper planning, our work becomes haphazard, and progress starts to fluctuate. With meticulous planning, we can use time with maximum efficacy.
Some people suffer from complacency and think that there is no harm in delaying, but this can eventually create a debacle. We should remove ambiguity from our work and scrutinize every step so that there is no discrepancy.
Therefore, it is necessary to develop indispensable skills to overcome procrastination, which will protect us from repercussions and help us move forward on the path of progress.
