with Kiran Morjaria: Why we procrastinate

Asian Network Motivation

Available for 43 days

Putting things off, chasing perfection and feeling the pressure to get everything right can leave us stuck before we’ve even started. In this episode of Asian Network Motivation, Kiran Morjaria explores why procrastination isn’t about laziness, but what’s really going on beneath the surface. Drawing from his own experiences as a doctor, comedian and self-confessed 'king procrastinator', he breaks down the battle between emotion and logic in our brains, and how high expectations can hold us back. Expect honest storytelling, mindset shifts, practical tools like the two-minute rule, and a feel-good soundtrack to help you start small, build momentum and get 1% better. Produced in Birmingham by Voxwave for BBC Asian Network.
