4. AVOID PROCRASTINATION
Most of us have experienced this point where we need to get something started, but we just hesitate. This does not necessarily come out of laziness; it can be caused by fear of boredom, or by fear of failure, what not.
It is totally needless to point out how exactly procrastination compromises the effectiveness of your time. It literally devours your time.
Here are some tips that should help you to combat procrastination:
- focus on the outcome. If there is something that you need to do, but you don't feel enthusiastic about it, then think of how great it will be once you're over and done with it, and focus on doing it in a way, so that you'd never have to return to it

Being on time is probably the most common requirement in anything that you will do in life.
Harriet Beecher Stowe once said, “When you get into a tight place and everything goes against you... never give up then, for that is just the place and time that the tide will turn.” This quote by Stowe can be used in every challenging situation from the simplest to the most complex. Although our generation is known for giving up because of loss of interest, never quitting will allow the feeling of accomplishment when reaching a succeeded goal, and achieving an all-around goal will allow room to take that goal forward and to a new and diverse level. Giving up is easy. Giving up is part of human nature that we all know and have given into once or twice in our lifetime.
