You procrastinate? good! it will make you rich af

I procrastinate… a lot.

But I’ve learned that this is a good thing. Procrastination is my superpower for achieving what most people think is impossible.

I wait until the last minute, but in that last minute, I launch into the flow state and my mind is impossible to distract from the task at hand.

When I do this, the work is of higher quality than if I were to do scattered “planned” work for weeks before.

I have other things to worry about, and if my work isn’t the only thing on my mind, the quality will suffer.

I’ve discovered that this is a character trait.

It’s how some people are wired.

You only focus when focus is needed.

You are bad at texting people back.
You rarely did your homework on time in school.
Client work is put off until the last minute.
You struggle to make progress in business (because you don’t have someone managing you when it’s time to publish a project).

If this is you, procrastination is your key to getting ahead of 99% of people… if you learn to harness that power.

The work you procrastinate on isn’t real-time like a video game or sports where you get immediate feedback on your effort.

Society has made you feel bad for this character trait. You constantly feel like you are falling behind others because you can’t, and shouldn’t, play the same game as them.

You don’t need to change. You need to understand yourself, structure your life accordingly, and make calculated decisions

Ever feel guilty about procrastinating? What if I told you that procrastination might actually be your secret weapon for doing amazing things?

Procrastination isn’t a flaw; it’s a strength. When I put things off, it’s not because I’m lazy. It’s because, as the deadline gets closer, I hit this crazy focus mode where nothing can distract me. The quality of my work skyrockets during this time.

Here’s why: If I’m not totally focused on my task, the quality drops. I’ve realized this is just how I’m wired.

Sound familiar?

You’re terrible at replying to texts.
Homework was always done the night before.
Client work? Last-minute rush.
Your business progress feels slow without someone pushing you.

If any of this rings a bell, guess what? Procrastination could be your key to crushing it—if you learn how to use it right.

Taking Bold Risks

Let’s talk about taking big, bold risks—what I call Tactical Stress. The biggest jumps in my business (I scaled and failed 2 businessed I am only 16 lol) came from decisions that seemed totally nuts at the time but were actually planned stressors to push me.

Here’s some stuff I did:

Sold products before they even existed.
Not studying for my exams, to study dot com secrets instead

Each of these moves forced me to figure things out or fail. This survival mentality turned stress into a powerful motivator, helping me achieve things I never thought possible.

Making Risk Work for You

When you’re deciding whether to buy software or a course, always go for the one that challenges you. Spending money when it’s tight forces you to get the most out of your investment.

For example, spending my last $1,000 on software made me a pro at using it. Dropping $3,500 on a course pushed me to succeed.

These aren’t just financial risks; they’re deliberate moves to force growth.

Structuring Your Day

Morning Blocks: New projects, writing, business stuff.
Breaks: Walks to clear my head.
Hard Stop: Gym time ends my workday.

This routine makes sure I get stuff done efficiently in the morning, so I can chill the rest of the day.

Quarterly Projects: My Growth Hack

Launching a new product every quarter keeps things fresh and my mind focused. Each launch teaches me what my audience loves and brings in bursts of cash.

What to Launch:

Courses
Coaching sessions
eBooks

Iterate, Don’t Perfect

By launching and tweaking, I keep momentum and avoid getting stuck. This cycle has been key to my success.

How to fabricate urgenct (something alot less people talk about)

To thrive, recreate the urgency you feel in a job within your own ventures. This self-imposed pressure is crucial for consistent progress.

Steps to Success

Set Public Deadlines: Announce your launch dates.
Outline and Plan: Spend 1-2 months preparing.
Execute: Accept pre-orders and build the product.

This approach ensures that your procrastination is not a hindrance but a strategic advantage.

Final Thought

If you find joy and progress elusive, maybe it’s time for a bold leap. Embrace the stress, harness your procrastination, and transform it into your superpower.
