I’m enjoying summer and the beach and yet still trying ‘to get my stuff done’
It’s a severe case of procrastination and I feel like I’m the guy in the clip:

How about you? Do you feel some empathy for him (and me)? What are your tips for stopping procrastination and getting on with the job?
I know it’s partly because what I’m trying to do I don’ like doing so what I must do is to re-frame it somehow and approach it in a more fun way!
For me that would mean starting early in the morning, definitely not getting distracted by opening emails and reading who is following me on Twitter and making big decisions whether or not to follow them back, because I don’t just follow anyone as I did at first. No I want to read the brief bio and decide if that person would be an interesting person to follow. All of this distracts me from my task of correcting my manuscript for my forthcoming book ‘ Life After medicine- for doctors who want a smooth transition.’
So that’s all for now but the morning brings a fresh day and determination to get on with what has to be done!
