Procrastination is the thief of time Children now are already starving for time. Yet so much of their time is often “stolen” by procrastination. Study assignments that should take an hour take three hours. Time that could be spent more meaningfully is wasted in vain. Procrastination shouldn’t just be bribed away We know it’s frustrating trying to beat procrastination. We’ve nagged, threatened with punishment and incentivised with treats. It works. Occasionally.Incentives may help them get started, but it is not sustainable. We should instead address the root issue. No more “I’ll do it later” Procrastination is not a willpower issue; it’s a problem of perspective. To your child, the task may seem too boring or too overwhelming, so they avoid starting. They’d do anything but that one thing they need to do. Our Overcoming Procrastination programme We’ve put together a 2.5-hour programme to help reduce procrastination. Through games-based activities, we coach kids how to: Understand why they procrastinate Plan and prioritise work to make it less overwhelming Take the first step to motivate further focus Remove distractions to sustain momentum Key takeaways At the end of this workshop, kids will have a better awareness of the root causes of procrastination and the skills to overcome these causes. They will also bring home a personal action plan for the next time they need to start work on time.
