Everyone at some point has had to do something they didn't want to. It is an even more
difficult task when you know that it is going to effect someone else negatively. I recently
was able to do a self analysis about my own odd behaviors when it came to procrastination.
Let me start from the beginning.
About two weeks ago, I had to tell two of my subordinate employees that they were going to
be laid off. Considering the fact that both workers had children, both had families and
obviously finances they had to contend with, I definitely did not want to tell them. One of
the workers was a model employee and the other...well...not so much. Both employees were
simply a victim of seniority and I found it more difficult to tell the model employee than
the Healthy Tips For Employees not as good. After I told each employee, I began questioning myself and
wondered it there was a better way to do it without procrastination. Here are the tips for
procrastination that I came up with.
The first tip for procrastination is that I would suggest is to do it immediately. During
the course of the day, I felt the weight of the task getting heavier and heavier. It
consumed my thoughts and it was very difficult for me to focus on other things. In fact, one
of the employees ask me if I wanted a cup of coffee from the break room and I couldn't even
look her in the face. If I would have simply told both of them early in the day, I could
have prevented all of those odd behaviors and saved myself some anxiety.
My second tip for procrastination would be to have support. I think that if I would have had
someone else with me, I would have done much better. Just having another supervisor in the
room with me would have helped tremendously. They may have been able to interject their
thoughts and open up some dialogue. Also, mentally, I would have felt better just knowing
that someone was there for support, even if they didn't say a word.
