To overcome the fear-based paralysis of procrastination, you must lower the psychological stakes. Shifting the goal from achieving a perfect outcome to simply completing the task reduces pressure, shrinks fear, and allows your brain's reward system (dopamine) to engage.
The tendency to delay tasks isn't due to laziness or poor discipline. It's a self-preservation mechanism where the brain, fearing failure, enters an "avoidance mode." This neurological wiring prioritizes perceived safety over success, locking you in a state of inaction.
