What and how

That one phone call you dread making or the scary letter from the taxman that remains unopened. Do you want to know more about the origin of your tendency to procrastinate and what you can do about it? If so, this course is just what you need. Which emotions do you want to handle better? What situations do you want to approach differently? Are these the situations when you tend to postpone things? As a result, do you ever find yourself losing control in both private and work situations?

You want to take this course because, just like everyone else, you sometimes have to cope with stressful situations. Situations where your emotions take control. Instances where you do not behave as you'd like, when you get angry, irritated, or just miserable. You can take control of your emotions. We all experience emotions, whether we're used to expressing them or not. RET (Rational Effectiveness Training) is a highly effective method that can help and teach you how to follow through.

In this course, you'll discover that procrastination is unhelpful and illogical. While waiting might seem like a good idea, the problem won't disappear on its own, and delaying only leads to guilt. You'll learn effective ways to cope with procrastination and gain insight into systematic thinking about situations. The main goal of the RET method is to change yourself by changing your thoughts. External influences can cause stress, but you play the most decisive role in managing your stress.

Throughout this course, you will learn how to overcome procrastination and implement real change through practice. You'll be encouraged to challenge yourself, using trial and error to find what works best for you. By practicing the RET method in real-life situations, you'll become better at handling stress. The course covers basic principles, emotions, and their role in RET, along with important terms that are relevant in practice.

After this learning journey, you'll know:

why you delay certain things
how you can avoid doing so from now on
how RET can help you to follow through
