One Small Thing: Breaking The Trance Of Procrastination

In this course, you'll discover a kinder, more compassionate, and effective way to understand and overcome procrastination. Rather than blaming yourself or trying to force your way through, you'll learn to recognise what's making things difficult, understand what your particular mind and body need, and discover practical ways to get unstuck. At the heart of the course is the concept of One Small Thing — a simple but powerful strategy for breaking the trance of procrastination. You'll discover how one small action can interrupt the feeling of being stuck, create movement where there was resistance, and help your mind and body experience something different: "I can act. I can move. I can make something happen." Through accessible teaching, transformative insights, guided practices and simple experiments, you'll learn how to: - Recognise different kinds of procrastination, including task paralysis, perfectionism and difficulty switching between activities. - Use the powerful One Small Thing strategy to interrupt stuckness and create momentum, even when you don't feel ready.. - Harness self-compassion to reduce the self-criticism, pressure and avoidance that are also keeping you stuck. - Understand how fear and protective patterns can keep you from moving towards things you genuinely want. - Discover body-based practices that help you feel more supported, capable and ready to take action. - Build your own personal toolkit of strategies that genuinely work for you. By the end of the course, you'll have a greater understanding of your own "stuck places", a collection of practical resources to return to whenever you need them, along with greater self-understanding, self-trust and confidence in your ability to move forward. And importantly, you'll have learned how to use One Small Thing in your everyday life — a strategy you can return to whenever you feel stuck, overwhelmed, or unable to begin. You'll know that you don't have to tackle the whole task, solve every problem, or wait until you feel motivated. Sometimes one small movement is enough to change what's possible next. The aim isn't to become someone who never procrastinates. It's to become someone who knows how to help themselves when they get stuck — and begin again.
