3 ways to take action right here right now by increasing your ability:

Procrastination to Action hack 1: Increase your skills instantly

Take the lazy way.

Don't practice cooking for 10 years. Follow a recipe.

Don't guess how to tie a tie. Watch a YouTube tutorial.

Don't try to win a boxing match alone. Get a coach.

Learn with easy how-to's.

Procrastination to Action hack 2: Get tools and resources

Again, take the lazy way.

Don't use rocks and wood to create a fire. Use a lighter.

Don't mass communicate to people one by one. Tweet to everyone instantly.

Your friend is ready to help you. Ask him/her to.

Procrastination to Action hack 3: Make the action tiny

• focus on the "starter step", the step that starts a task

• don't focus on the 1-hour task, focus on the 1-second task

Make the action the easiest possible so that even if you are super lazy, you can do it.
