The Procrastination Pattern
- Do you forget about tasks you have to do?
- When faced with an important project, do you get distracted or busy with other things?
- Is it hard to discipline yourself to exercise, meditate, or eat well?
- Are you stuck in a rut at work?
- Do you avoid making decisions and taking action to move your life ahead?
This is the Procrastination Pattern. Click here for more information.XIf you have a Procrastination Pattern, you tend to avoid certain kinds of action. You may avoid tasks that have to be done that you don’t particularly enjoy. You may also avoid things you really want to do, especially activities that involve taking risks and the possibility of failure. You may start a project but not stay with it or not complete it. It might take you so long to finish it that you miss important deadlines.
People who procrastinate rarely make a conscious decision not to do something. They just go along with their lives, and after a while they realize that they haven’t done the task. They got distracted with other things. They got lost in thought. They spent time relaxing, partying, having fun. Sometimes they worked hard doing things that were less important than the task they were avoiding.
Sometimes it isn’t a specific task that you are avoiding. It is the thinking and planning that would be required for you to take action. You never seem to find the time to do it. Alternatively, you may think and plan obsessively but never actually make a decision about what to do.

Self-Therapy Journey is based on
two comprehensive and powerful systems!

Click here to see a larger version of this chart.
1. The Pattern System®
The Pattern System is a breakthrough in understanding personality, a Periodic Table for psychology, created by Jay Earley, PhD.
It is a systematic approach to understanding your personality oriented toward psychological healing and personal growth, Self-Therapy Journey contains about 25 patterns, which are ways of behaving and feeling that you might want to change, such as people-pleasing, perfectionism, self-criticism, or avoiding intimacy.
Self-Therapy Journey helps you transform each pattern into a healthy capacity, such as assertiveness, ease, self-esteem, or cooperation. It also allows you to heal 14 different emotional wounds from childhood, such as being deprived or judged or feeling unlovable.
Everyone is unique! And the Pattern System recognizes this. You aren't put into a box. You get to understand the details of your particular personality.
The Pattern System provides the psychological content and IFS provides the therapy process.

2. Internal Family Systems Therapy

Internal Family Systems Therapy (IFS) is on the cutting edge of psychotherapy. It allows you to understand your psyche in a new way and create deep, powerful healing of old emotional wounds and trauma. IFS is a recognized, proven method for individual psychotherapy with a robust training program and thousands of certified therapists.
IFS enables you to understand each of the parts of your psyche, sometimes called sub-personalities. You can think of them as little people inside you. Each has its own perspective, feelings, memories, goals, and motivations. For example, one part of you might be trying to lose weight, and another part might want to eat whatever you want.
We all have many different parts, and we each have a spiritual center, the Self, which is compassionate, understanding, and grounded. Through IFS you can learn to stay in Self, develop a relationship with each of your parts, and heal them.
The key is that the your healing comes from you! This means that you can do IFS on your own, without a therapist, which is what makes Self-Therapy Journey possible.

I was amazed with the ease of use of STJ and how quickly it helped to identify areas in which I was having difficulty. The guided mediations helped me understand the underlying intention behind my pattern. The homework practice turned out beautifully, allowing me to be more cooperative with others. I learned to re-state confusing feelings in an accepting and loving way. I can now let go of those parts that are no longer serving me.

XWork Confidence means feeling confident in your ability to work well, accomplish tasks, and produce quality work. It means that you have deep care and devotion for what you do or create and you attend to what needs to be done, without fear or hesitation.
You can plan ahead for what needs to be done and also for larger goals in your life, with confidence that you will be able to accomplish what you choose to do, although you realize that the form this takes may have to change over time. When something doesn't work out the way you expected, you take this as feedback about how you must try a different approach. You never take this as proof that you are inadequate or a failure.
You are capable of working hard when that is called for and also of being relaxed and at ease with your work when appropriate. You are interested in producing quality work without any need to be perfect.
