Here's a coaching session I did with someone struggling with procrastination. Together, we discover the thing that's really holding him back and how that procrastination can totally dissolve... https://t.co/jZYzjLdQcM
I do not follow up on folks after coaching as that would feel intrusive to me. I do, however, hear back from many folks I have coached through the years. Many take classes or come back for another coaching or write me. Most all of those have told me about or I have seen their lasting change. But I suspect those who have had a lesser experience may not seek me out again.
@FU_joehudson That makes sense but I was referring to the title of the video https://t.co/SKQNhSEZ6Z
Before I continue engaging it would be helpful to know a few things so I can address the underlying concern: What is it you are wanting from this line of questioning? What outcome are you hoping for? What did you learn, if anything, from the video? What do you think people who struggle from procrastination would learn from it? What is your underlying concern?
@FU_joehudson @ChrisChipMonk Speaking for me, not Chris: I'd love to feel you go "Oh! Yeah, that was a misleading title. I'll have my team watch for that going forward." QT was a good start but rn I don't trust it'll at all change how many more misleading titles come from AOA. https://t.co/wsXYB63NyT
@Morphenius @FU_joehudson +1, thank you https://t.co/4o6JyNVCI0
I'm interested in whether your methods lead to lasting growthāI've seen many approaches lead to short-term bypass and false breakthroughs. Per your video, I think itās right that having more fun often points the way out of procrastination. But is what happened in the video enough to ādissolveā his procrastination? Iāve never seen procrastination one-shot in a single session (see below), so the title of the video is making a big claim! This is why Iām curious about long-term feedback loops/follow-upānot to doubt your work, but because I'm committed to figuring out what truly helps people long-term.
I appreciate that request. I have sat with it and discussed it. I can not make that promise. Especially when seeing the comments on the video and how it helped folks. Seeing that this video got over 120K and boosted all our other videos. Our best video before this video got 6k then this video was released and they all went up. Do I think we hurt people with this title- No. Do I feel like I want my team to feel safe to try things -Yes. Do I think we were trying to be devious - No. Do I think we were precise with our language - No. When I discussed it with team members did we feel like we compromised our integrity in this title - No. We do not feel like we represented something that was not delivered. He saw through his procrastination even if we can not prove he saw through it forever. And I appreciate the check and your desire for us to be of high integrity. I am grateful for that even if we do not see eye to eye on this issue.

1 month later: i've seen no evidence of any coach or therapist occasionally one-shotting lifelong procrastination i really really want to pay out this bountyā¦ but no submission has met all 4 criteria yet :/. is it even possible? i've only seen one-shots for anxiety etc
@ChrisChipMonk Oh I can help with this! I am sure I could not serve everyone with procrastination in one session. Too many factors and my experience is that I cannot serve those who do not have a question or who aren't willing to do the work.
Awesome video. The truth is that you'll never succeed long term at something that you don't enjoy. Same goes for people who want to "start working out' or "eat healthy". Find the type of excercise that you LIKE TO DO. Find the health food that YOU ACTUALLY LIKE!!! It takes more patience and creativity and trial & error but it's the way
