Ep 17 – What is Procrastination Costing You & Your Career?

Overthinking leads to more overthinking! How is rumination and doubt slowing your career progress? Let’s explore how to break this cycle!

Today I am talking about how your overthinking – and need for certainty – are totally stalling your career.

(Think of this conversation as tough love!)

– How much time and money are you throwing away by not making your decision?
– What’s the cost to your stress and anxiety levels?
– How is it impacting how key decision makers perceive you?
– How is procrastination stalling the opportunities you could be enjoying in your career?

These are just some of the questions we explore today!

Let’s talk about overthinking and procrastination!

• I’m sharing 3 real case studies where clients have been totally stuck in a state of ‘analysis paralysis’ and are unable to make a decision
• We discuss ‘healthy risk’ versus over-analysing scenarios and the potential costs of that
• I’m also sharing 5 of the exact strategies that I use in my own Career & Leadership coaching sessions to help you break the cycle of analysis paralysis and take new action

Episode Quote:

“I remember asking this client, ‘What if you started this new path and you knew that both the journey and the outcomes were going to be imperfect. What then?'”
(Rebecca Allen, Career Success Coach and host of Her Ambitious Career podcast)

About Rebecca:

Hi, I’m Rebecca Allen and I’m an Executive Coach and Personal Brand expert for corporate women, aspiring to senior levels of leadership. I absolutely LOVE coaching and seeing my fabulous clients exceed their own expectations. I’ve worked for 11 years now as a coach and have helped women at companies including Woolworths, ANZ, J.P. Morgan, PwC, Coca-Cola Amatil, Ministry of Defence and Coles. I live for those phone calls from clients, jumping up and down, telling me they’ve got that promotion, negotiated a seismic pay rise or have moved into a role completely aligned with their mission, values and strengths. I’m a working mum of two wonderful children, adore travel and trying my hand at anything creative. I’d love to connect with you!
