Help me find coaches: $200 Bounty I'm looking for referrals to coaches who have, at least occasionally, led someone to resolve lifelong procrastination: - in approximate one session or intervention - even though the client had already tried all of the standard procrastination advice - with effects lasting 6+ months - such that the client became MORE aligned and less numb This referral will be valuable for the coach: I’m looking to refer them bounties from my backlog or at least learn from them I will pay $200 each when I feel satisfied with the above *DM me the referrals - I have questions to ask you* When DMing, please share the best evidence you know that they meet the criteria above
@ChrisChipMonk If the coach could fix the problem in one session then they simply helped the client to answer the “why am I doing this?” Question. The answer belongs to the client. As does the agentic follow through. Not sure how the coach would know about the 6m+ bit.
@KConwayCoach - i'm talking about resolving *all* procrastination avoidance for that person, not just for one thing > Not sure how the coach would know about the 6m+ bit. wait, do other coaches typically not collect data like this??
@ChrisChipMonk In coaching (as opposed to therapy) the client is resourceful and the client has a choice. The coach is not tied to the outcome. The client can choose to act or not to act. Deviating from these values reduces the agency of the client and makes real coaching impossible.
@KConwayCoach seems bad example of how i do this: https://t.co/9zshipnj70
@mxslk @KConwayCoach turns out actually kind of illegal lmao the site is down right now but it said > Licensees do not solicit testimonials from current clients or patients or from other persons who are vulnerable to undue influence. https://t.co/Y5TBgx80qb
@Gena_I_Gorlin @mxslk @KConwayCoach lmao https://t.co/QTzT3kPh5D
@Gena_I_Gorlin @mxslk @KConwayCoach re-reading the APA guidelines now, i overlooked: > from *current* clients or patients hmmm… https://t.co/mFrd35Rzup
@ChrisChipMonk what kinds of situation are we targetting by saying 'procrastination'? my default assumption is that 'procrastination' is a stand-in for a should. honestly quite an interesting topic for me, curious about how ppl experience + understand procrastination
@ChrisChipMonk i've had this effect on a bunch of my marketing clients actually, by doing an in-person version of what i've written in @introspectvv, which also has that effect on many readers https://t.co/ycxWaamUp1
98. “After reading Introspect I started journalling, meditating and just being easy on myself. The following months brought a remarkable change in psyche and calmness… self-loathing isn’t the main motivator in my life now”. https://t.co/7HO6Stja6C https://t.co/x1FGg0nAur
I've worked with therapists who've addressed procrastination on a specific thing within one session. (With coherence therapy.) But it's specific, not generalized. Procrastination seems to be about emotional avoidance generally (although lots of edge cases). Something about doing the thing would allow for some seemingly worse thing to unfold and we want to avoid that experience. From an emotional/experiential standpoint, if you get good at embracing the avoided feeling, you have a lot more agency in moving through it. But no idea how to do that in one session.

i've seen lifelong anxiety be resolved like this in approximately one session multiple times - see https://t.co/DDwEYg6nd6. but never procrastination. why?
