Procrastination/Perfectionism

For me "Just Do It" is much more than a corporate logo, its practically a program slogan in my recovery circle. I'm slowly starting to use it instead of my previous motto, "Why do today what I can put off until tomorrow". Procrastination (aka sloth) has always been a character defect of mine. It was a long time before it occurred to me that I have often put off a task, not because I was lazy, but because I was afraid it wouldn't be perfect when done .

Today I try to focus on "just doing it", and to not get sidetracked by my fears of not doing it well enough.
