Seven Sure-Fire Ways to Stop Procrastinating and Get Big Stuff Done

My co-author Mike Acker and I wrote and published our new book Lead With No Fear in 90 days. Its the premise of our book that all great accomplishments don’t need to take six months– twelve months– or two years. That if you focus in and make 3° shifts every day around change and what you want… amazing things will happen.

How About You?

  • What have you been waiting for?
  • What have you put off?
  • What do you want to accomplish right now in the next 90 days?

If you haven’t already, pick up a copy of our book– I hope you do here.

I’d also like to offer you my Seven Sure-Fire Ways to Stop Procrastinating and Get Big Stuff Done

1. “You can’t be the kid standing at the top of the water-slide, overthinking it. You have to go down the chute.”

–Tina Fey

Don’t overthink!

2. “You see, in life, lots of people know what to do, but few people actually do what they know. Knowing is not enough. You must take action.”

–Tony Robbins

Take action today!

3. “It always seems impossible until it’s done.”

–Nelson Mandela

Cut “impossible” out of your vocabulary!

4. “If you spend too much time thinking about a thing, you never get it done.”

–Bruce Lee

Be a doer, not just a thinker!

5. “The only way around is through.”

–Robert Frost

Push through quitting points!

6. “Procrastination is the killer of dreams– you must slay it with daily determination, action, and purpose.”

–Steve Gutzler

Be determined and purpose-driven!

7. “Don’t sit there. If you screw up, start over. Try something else. If you wait for perfect conditions it will be too late.”

–Lee Iacocca

Don’t wait– do it now!

I encourage you to write down 3 work goals each day. As you accomplish those goals you’ll feel a surge of momentum over procrastination.

Here’s to your accomplishments!
—Steve
