Healthy habits can conquer procrastination. Make being responsible its own reward with these five easy tips to achieve your goals.
1. Do a single task.
Focus on a single task until it’s done. Then move to the next. Schedule the time that you will use to check your phone and email, but while you are working on your task, your complete focus should be brought to it.

3. Keep a record, follow up, and follow through

Through strategic planning she went from having over “$100,000 in student loan debt to having almost $700,000 saved.” She made a spreadsheet, but if you’re not great with excel, there are so many tools. In short, set goals anc commit to them on paper. Then, use tools to help you achieve those goals, and then, accomplish said goals. Yeah?
4. Tell the truth
Choose honesty over social graces, and avoid being bogged down. It’s okay to say no, or no thank you. It’s okay to share an honest opinion about executing someone else’s idea.
5. Be Assertive
Communicate as an assertive practice.Think of it as telling the truth, often.
