PROCRASTINATION

CLIENT TESTIMONIALS

‘I used to delay getting things done and have been for more than 15 years. I got tired of it, decided to reach out to Umar and he helped me get rid of my bad habit. I’ve had to deal with procrastination since I have memory, but I realized it was really affecting me in both my personal and professional life for the last 2 years. I was trying to stop my procrastination but somehow I kept failing at it. Delaying getting things done was stopping me from reaching my highest potential by not getting work done specifically with regards to my coursework. After the first session with Umar, I started to see the new results in me. He helped me realize that I can stop procrastinating and create better habits for myself. The second session was very interesting just by the way he managed to help me connect with my unconscious self. It was fascinating. Subsequently, I can say I no longer have the bad habit of procrastinating. This experience has impacted my life by knowing the power of the unconscious and the conscious self and how now I am able to control procrastination by doing the exercises Umar taught me. I highly recommend working with him. He is very friendly as well as professional.’ - Irasema Pantoja, 23, Entrepreneur, Texas, USA.

‘I have had a problem with procrastination for 10 years. After working with Umar I no longer have this issue. Instead, now I am able to do all the things I was procrastinating on, with no problem what so ever. In fact I do everything much easier now.

Before I started the session with Umar I was in a really bad place because of procrastination. I was always lazy and I wasn’t doing my duties like I wanted to do but after a talk with him on the phone I decided to go for it and to try the sessions.

I had a lot of fun during the sessions with Umar. He is an expert in his field and he is very well prepared and he always knows what he is doing. I really liked the way he was guiding me through the session. I also learned a lot about myself and I learned a lot of new things along the way.

After the session I am now in a much better place doing everything I put my mind to with no more procrastination. I am more motivated and dedicated and happier with myself.

I would recommend Umar to everyone. He is a true professional a great expert in his profession. He will guide you in the right way, he is always kind and caring and he is a great listener. So you are in the right hands and you will have a happier life thanks to Umar.’ - Aleksandar Stojanovski, 25, Network Marketer, Manchester, UK.

“I was struggling with my motivation to complete job applications. I had just graduated, and I was trying to apply for jobs. I was burned out and I was struggling with a particular job application which had a very long form. Umar worked with me on this problem, where we discovered the unconscious root cause of my lack of motivation. Upon uncovering this, he was able to help me formulate a corresponding solution. This was all done in just a single one 1-hour session! After our session, he made the time to check on my progress to ensure I had obtained the result I wanted. Not only was I able to complete my application form, but, moving forward, I am now able to use the same technique whenever I am struggling to complete a difficult task. I really enjoyed working with Umar as I think he is very passionate about what he does and has a wealth of knowledge. I felt comfortable speaking to him because he is a patient and great listener. He is very good at stimulating ideas. I also really like his sense of humour! I would definitely recommend working with Umar as I have no doubts that he will put his best foot forward to assist his clients. I really appreciate the help he's given me.” - Dania Lakshmi Rajasegaran MEng, 23, Chemical Engineer.

‘I have been putting off writing a business plan for over 6 months. After working with Umar, I now have clarity on what I need to do to get it completed and I have consistently worked on it for 1 hour per day for over a month now. This means I am now well on my way to completing the business plan which feels fantastic.

Before working with Umar, it felt impossible to find the time with all my current commitments and life always seemed to get in the way. Umar has helped me build strategies for structuring my evenings and early mornings so that I can make space for the 1 hour per day regardless of the different scenarios each day brings.

The sessions with Umar helped me discover a number of things about myself that were previously barriers to completing larger more complex tasks. Umar seems to have a sixth sense for finding his way to the root cause of issues and has been very patient in listening to my situation in order to diagnose where I can make changes.

Umar has the ability to put you at ease and help you see things very clearly. As well as removing barriers to success, his wealth of knowledge on wider health and personal development topics is very impressive and has contributed to really powerful and effective strategies for me

The impact of the work I have done with Umar is starting spread to other areas of my life too. I have started to get a grip on other projects at work and home that I have struggled to get off the ground. So, I certainly would not hesitate to recommend working with Umar to try and resolve any issues you may be facing!’ - A.L., 38, Entrepreneur, Rotherham, UK.

‘I have struggled with procrastination most of my adult life and after working with Umar I am able to get my to do list for each day completed.

Before Umar’s coaching I had tried to get up earlier to get things done but was still not getting through my list of tasks. When Umar said he could help I thought I’d give it a try. Umar has a calming nature, the methodology is thought provoking, and not only does it give me a system to work with, but he recommends books to read too.

Now I set my goals every night for the next day taking time to consider if there are too many and perhaps if some of what I need to do can wait until later in the week. I feel I get more done which brings me satisfaction, calm and happiness. 

I would recommend working with Umar as he will take all the time you need to get to where you want to be. I only needed 2 sessions, but should I go back to old ways for any reason, I know he’s there to help me get back in track.’ - Simone Mclevey, 42, Learning & Development Manager, Stockport, UK.

‘I used to have really bad procrastination trying to apply for jobs and trying to complete work for projects because I used to have a fear of always either doing it badly, being rejected, or just feeling bad for nothing at all. And this plagued me ever since I got out of studying.

I had one session with Umar, and he spoke to me and his coaching was amazing. It actually really really pulled me through. Ever since then I actually look forward to applying for jobs, getting creative or anything like that. It absolutely moved me forward and helped me get over a big mental barrier I used to have.

I would absolutely recommend his coaching to anyone with issues similar to me.’ - Richard Travers, 27, Radio DJ, Tipperary, Ireland.

‘As a recent French and Spanish graduate from the University of Leeds, I have always made it a priority to maintain my language skills on a daily basis and maintain my passion for languages. However, amidst the Corona virus pandemic and being off work for an extended period of time, I found myself losing motivation and falling out of love with my daily habit of foreign language learning, fearing that I was going to slowly lose everything I had learned during my time at university.

However, after just a few sessions, Umar helped me to develop a clear schedule to follow which helped me to rekindle my love with my old habit and since then I have rarely missed a day of learning my languages.

Before having the sessions with Umar, I felt like I was a lost cause. Being forced off work put me in a state of unproductivity, and I thought the only way I would pick up my old habit was if I started working again which, which looked unlikely for the foreseeable future and by that point, I made have completely lost my interest all together. After hearing about Umar’s work and his offer to help me with my habit problem, it seemed like a no brainer to go ahead and see what it was all about, and it was a fantastic decision!

Umar is an absolute expert at his craft and it immediately shows once you begin the sessions with him. He has a wealth of knowledge and experience and is able to communicate various ideas in a manner that is very easy to understand, as well as being an excellent listener. He is very down to earth, and each session is as relaxed as the previous one. I always felt comfortable and reassured talking about private issues and Umar dealt with this sensitive information in a professional way and positively utilised this information to help construct a solid solution to the problem. Thanks to his fantastic work, I was able to identify the root cause of my problem and subsequently change my thought process so that the problem no longer became a hindrance to my daily life, but rather an important and fulfilling habit as part of a concise schedule that we formulated together.

I would highly recommend Umar to anybody! He is knowledgeable in so many areas and can offer fantastic advice and working approaches to different problems and life-based obstacles. His commitment to his work and compassion for others shines through in every session, and the results speak for themselves. Thank you for all the help.’ - Jordan Karim, 23, Project Manager, International Translations Ltd, Liverpool, UK.

“I have been a professional procrastinator for as long as I can remember. I had a domestic decluttering project I kept putting off. After only a few sessions working with Umar, I no longer have this issue. Instead, I now have been able to eliminate and complete 20 years’ worth of decluttering that I’ve been putting off.

Before my initial session with Umar, I was hesitant and super sceptical. I thought I had tried everything under the sun that would help me push past the issue of putting things off. I ultimately decided to go with Umar because I had a friend who recently worked with him and I witnessed first-hand his transformation. Needless to say, I was convinced. Side note - my friend was a bigger procrastinator than me - so if he could change, I DEFINITELY could.

My experience during the sessions was absolutely mind-blowing and incredible. Umar is hands down, one of the smartest people I have ever met in my entire life. He is a wealth of knowledge, and would explain, portray and be able to relate things in such an easy to follow manner that you didn’t even realize you were in a session. The sessions were very laid back and made me feel super relaxed. I found it extremely interesting how certain techniques were used to reprogram myself, as well as uncovering the fact that procrastination wasn’t really my main problem at all. There were other underlying issues that I hadn’t addressed properly which ultimately lead to the procrastination. The consciousness and awareness that was brought around these issues / topics was massive for me. Being able to now identify the problem before it became a problem, learning how to shift / direct the thoughts and conversations I had inside my head in a manner that was in line with my values was crucial.

Since working with Umar, I no longer procrastinate or put off any projects that need to get done. This alone has been one of the single GREATEST experiences I could have ever done. My productivity has increased 10000x in both my professional and personal life. I no longer drag my feet or ‘go through the motions’ when tackling a task.  Had it not been for Umar I would still be spinning my wheels in place, going a thousand miles an hour, and not moving an inch.

I would HIGHLY recommend Umar to help you overcome any sort of issues you may be facing.  Whether it is within your personal or professional life. My experience with him was not just with procrastination. He helped me smash through my limiting beliefs and imposter syndrome I was experiencing within my business. Since breaking through those issues I have been able to show up, increase productivity, perform at a level I only dreamt of, which ultimately led me to helping more people and earning more money.  He has hands down been the BEST person I have ever worked with. 100/100 I would recommend Umar.”  - Dominick Mantovani, 28, Police Officer/Business Owner, New York, USA.

“I was having a lack of motivation to get started on job searching. I had trouble finding balancing doing this alongside the rest of my regular work tasks.

After just one session with Umar I have worked out a more balanced way to both work on my portfolio and job at the same time without making it too much of a mental effort. I was able to mix in some of the things that he made me think about along with my own thoughts.

My session with Umar was very straightforward and took just an hour or so in the evening. Umar was easy to communicate with. I enjoyed the process of talking about myself from the third person view which pointed out a few interesting needs that were not obvious to me before.

Now, getting started on something new is much easier as I have less decisions to make which makes doing any good habits easier to stick with.

I would recommend Umar. He is a very patient, friendly guy and very easy to talk to!” - Alwin Babu, UK.

“I had an issue with organising my room. I have been a hoarder for a while and keep purchasing clothes, bags, shoes, make up and more! After working with Umar I have actually resolved my hoarding issue.

Before our sessions I used to just order things on line but never had motivation to throw out my old belongings. I procrastinated so much, I honestly didn’t have it in me to get rid of my old stuff. In the session, Umar made me feel so comfortable and relaxed. I honestly didn’t think it would work but it did. During the session I found it very interesting and I learned a lot about myself. It was weird at first speaking to my unconscious but I soon got into it and realised the importance of this. Umar had the session thoroughly planned out and you can tell that through the questions he asked me. 

I liked how approachable and friendly Umar was whilst remaining professional at all times. 

Now I feel like I have actually managed to enjoy sorting my room out and throwing things I no longer need. I now wear amazing clothes all the time because I no longer have clutter to sort through!

Working as a Mental Health Nurse I didn’t have much time to sort through my belongings but the motivation Umar has helped me find has been beyond anything! I now feel confident all the time and it’s helped with my work life too!

I would definitely work with Umar again if I had any other issues. We have arranged to do further work together in other aspects in my life. Thank you so much Umar. You are brilliant!”

- Zaynah Alam, 23, Registered Mental Health Nurse, Birmingham, UK.

“For the past 10 years I’ve has trouble with procrastination. After working with Umar for a few weeks I am now able to do things at will.

Before meeting Umar, this problem was severe. I’d have lack of motivation and was uninterested in completing my university work. When Umar told me about the services he provided I was quite intrigued and thought all help is good help when working on yourself.

The experience during the sessions were really nice. Umar made the session very calming and he was very intentional with his methods. He spends time trying to get to the root of the issue and puts measures into place to help you figure out within yourself what’s the issue.

After the session I am much better at doing things when I need to get them done because we implemented a reward system which I find really helpful. Moving forward in life I would still use this method because it is very effective and I believe if something works for you, you should continue those things.

I would definitely recommend working with Umar as he is very passionate about what he does. He is funny, makes you comfortable and really takes the time to help you.”

- Erika Creque, 25, Student/Entrepreneur, Bradford, UK

“For a lot of years, I have had problems with procrastination, and also with being able to read and finish a book without losing interest and thinking that it will take me too long to finish. Since working with Umar, he has helped me uncover the underlying reasons behind these bad habits to then change how I view reading and how I can reduce procrastination which in turn has created more productivity in my days. For someone who has had issues finishing a book for close to 15 years, I have since finished reading 2 books inside 4 weeks with the help and guidance of Umar. We have also worked to tweak my daily routine in the way of ensuring I get a certain amount of sleep each night and also different techniques to help me throughout the day when I feel like I am beginning to lose focus to ensure I get most/everything done that I planned to do in a day.

I have never done anything like this before so I was a little hesitant at first, but after a few messages back and forth and a phone call, I jumped at the opportunity to work with Umar as I felt how passionate he was about it and how knowledgeable he was with regards to this type of work.

What I liked about the process of working with Umar was how empathetic and friendly he was on the sessions. You aren’t just starting straight into everything at the start of the session, Umar creates a friendly feel to the session by showing an interest in how you have been and what you have been getting up to which also helped me feel more relaxed. Umar also has a wide range of techniques to cater for anyone’s needs so if you try something that doesn’t work, well then Umar will have another technique to try until you find one that works for you which I found really great.

The impact these sessions have had on my life has been huge. I feel confident when I pick up a book and read through the book with ease, without conflicting thoughts. I procrastinate a lot less and my productivity has increased massively, due to ensuring I get proper rest according to what I feel is necessary and using the various techniques throughout the day. I have also have been learning a new language which I was struggling to do previously (due to not being consistent) which I now do every single day. I am also a currency trader which as you can imagine with being much more productive with my time, my knowledge of the markets are increasing at a much faster rate and it has helped alter my mindset to align with how I need to think.

I would highly recommend Umar to anyone who feels that they have bad habits that they would like to work on. Not only will Umar help you with techniques on how to change these bad habits, he also changes the way you think about these and irons out any conflicting thoughts which I think is a key component in obtaining longevity with your new habits.”

“I came to see Umar to help me solve a long-standing problem of procrastination in my daily life. After working with him I no longer have this issue anymore. I would postpone waking up on time in the morning as I lost my daily working corporate routine via two years of parental leave and more than one year building my company. Umar also helped me address other complex hidden layers behind the procrastination problem at the same time. As a result, I received a lot of additional positive by-products such as discovering my purpose, understanding who I am at a much deeper level, and also getting back my enjoyment of life and how to best live it with more joy after many long years without this feeling.  

The work on procrastination turned out to have lots of facets and layers that were tied to other aspects of my life. When I came to see Umar I was having deep moments of suffering and thinking there was no way out but this all changed once I started working with him.

Umar started with an initial assessment and strategy of how we would work together. We worked on self-awareness, emotions, and simple actions I could take daily. Even before doing the actual change work, I felt more enlightened as a result of the analysis he shared with me. In addition, the change work itself that we did to modify certain behaviors and emotional patterns were so powerful it left me with a huge feeling of satisfaction and hope for my future. 

In our sessions, Umar was able to help me to discover the causes of my problems, more positive ways to interpret my past, resolve any internal conflicts, and see inspiring positive life lessons from experiences I previously had thought were somewhat negative. Since doing this everything in my life has been coming together nicely for me resulting in my living a more fulfilling and rewarding life. Umar also encouraged me to do my own work by recommending books for me to read.

Umar has a bubbly personality and he is very knowledgeable. He has great depth as well as a breadth of knowledge with a lot of good laughs thrown in along the way. Most of all though he is a person who cares. 

To any potential client, whatever your goal is, Umar can help you to achieve it. Whatever your passion is Umar can help you discover it. Whatever your problem is, Umar can help you to figure it out and overcome it. I am deeply grateful to God for bringing Umar onto my path to help me live a life of greater harmony and become the best version of myself that I have always been seeking to be. His work is powerful!

I plan to do more work with Umar in my corporate work and will lean on him and collaborate once the staff of my business reaches the target I am aiming for. I definitely recommend him to help anyone who is not comfortable with pretty much any aspect or problem in his or her life. Thank you so much for your help!”

“For over two years I had an issue with procrastination in certain areas of my life. Before I started working with Umar I had almost given up on the idea of writing my book. Now, I no longer have this issue. For months at a time, I had periods that were so full of frustration and overwhelm that I felt like I could not access certain parts of my brain!  

As I tried to work on writing my book I felt feelings of doubt each time about whether or not I was making the right decision, whether I should start, whether or not I was writing the right book, whether or not I should even be writing a book, perhaps it should be an online course instead, or maybe I should be offering a coaching programme or a group coaching programme or even be making videos to teach what I know. It was exhausting! So many things, so may ideas, floating around in my head. Simply too much for one person to think about!

I first started working with Umar upon a recommendation from my sister. initially, I doubted Umar’s methods would work as I would consider myself to be a person who can at times a have a somewhat stubborn mind. But throughout the process I was able to discover more about myself and some of the parts of myself that were holding me back.  

The unique processes and methods Umar use to help you discover more about yourself are very interesting and they teach you about yourself and the way your mind works.

Moving forward to the present. I have now developed the initial skeleton for the book I am writing. It’s not finished yet but I am so proud that I was able to start. I have finally achieved something that I never thought I could. As a highly creative mind, creating structure and order is something that doesn’t come naturally to me. Umar helped me to organise my thoughts in a way that works for me and for that I am very grateful. I have taken away a huge range of strategies that I can now utilise in the future which help me to structure the wildness of my creative thoughts in a way that serves me and my business. 

I am now confident that I can indeed write my book and that I could even do some of the other things on my list because I now have a system in my mind that works!  I would highly recommend Umar to anyone with personal blockages located somewhere in the subconscious mind. It’s always worth discovering more about what is holding you back because if you do not know it then you cannot solve it!”

- Jumi Awomosu, Creative Entrepreneur, London, UK.

“I used to struggle at work getting frustrated with myself for dozing off and procrastinating on jobs when I really needed to make progress and get things done. After just one session with Umar, I no longer have this problem and feel so very grateful to him for this!

Before my session, I struggled because I was unable to get into a focused state to do my work. I would get easily distracted and lose concentration. This lead to me becoming very frustrated with myself as I would doze off, and end up procrastinating when I really needed to get on with things and make progress on my work.  

I want to thank Umar for showing me how to enter a ‘flow state’. Since our session, I’ve been able to do this easily countless times at work when I needed to which has greatly increased my productivity on a daily basis. I use the method I learned from Umar multiple times per day and so much in fact that it has now become second nature to me and almost effortless and quite natural.

In the session, Umar helped me realise the reasons behind my self defeating pattern of behaviour. More importantly, he helped me realize I could change this, showed me how to change it and I did!

His positive attitude is quite infectious and very inspiring! It's amazing that through a single session with him I was able to change a pattern of behaviour which I have had for as long as I can remember!

The impact of my work with Umar has been life-changing for me. Instead of wasting countless hours being frustrated and procrastinating like I used to, now, I can effortlessly enter a state of concentration and flow, enjoying getting my work done efficiently and with excellence. I always feel very proud and satisfied having done my work now and enjoy the additional free time I now have as well as the peace of mind that this brings me.

I think the work Umar does is really incredible. He certainly helped me and I'm sure he will help others. I have recommended all my friends to him if they ever have any problems with procrastination, productivity issues, motivation or concentration! Thank you so much!”

- Q.A., 30, Maths Tutor, Derby, United Kingdom.

“Before working with Umar I struggled to get over some procrastination habits that were caused by an unconscious limiting belief I had about work. I had learned this when I was very young. After one session with him, this belief is now gone, replaced with an empowering and motivating alternative that now makes me take action.

Before my session with Umar, I was procrastinating and not being as productive as I would like to be in certain areas of my life. I had a feeling of being stuck, knowing I wanted to achieve a lot, but I just didn’t have the motivation to ‘get to doing it’ as well as the decisiveness to know what to do.

Whilst working with Umar, I uncovered a limiting belief I had learned at 15 years old which I realized had been holding me back for many years in multiple ways; especially regarding my approach to hard work and daily productivity. In one session, Umar showed me how to change this belief from something which had been holding me back to something which now drives & motivates me to take action. The old limiting belief is gone. In its place is something new & better that now empowers me. As a consequence of the belief change work, I feel more energetic, more in control of my time management and I’m willing to take action towards the things I want with a sense of positive anticipation.

The unique thing about Umar is that he helps you set the agenda and believes you already know the answers within yourself. What he is always doing is helping facilitate you to use your own mind, conscious and subconscious, to come up with creative ways to get past whatever problems you may have. He is very patient and timely in his questioning, making sure that he gets right to the root of the issue.

Umar not only motivates you to find solutions that you can use to help solve your problems, but he also empowers you with the tools that you need to work through the problem by yourself so you don't have to constantly come back to him. He sees your problems and works through them with you, systematically and on many levels, so that you can build the foundation for a lasting solution.

Just come to him with an open mind, follow through with his guidance, be active in the process, and the results will come naturally with Umar as your guide on the side. 

I highly recommend anyone with limiting beliefs in any area of their life to contact Umar as he can help you change them for a better life!”

- Victor Kyefulumya, 36, Personal Trainer, Mitcham, England.

“I was procrastinating on setting up my own Psychotherapy Practice. After working with Umar this problem is now gone and I will be launching my practice in the following month.

Before working with Umar, I think I have been a procrastinator for as long as I can remember and while I have always managed to meet deadlines at work and university, I have not always achieved personal goals because of it. This saddened me on several occasions. Two years ago, I was considering opening my own business and I started preparing myself by reading a lot and researching though by the end of last year I had still not started setting anything up. I knew I was procrastinating again, but this time, I wanted to overcome the problem. I had a goal I wanted to achieve and felt frustrated I could not get over it by myself. This goal was very important to me and was affecting my self-confidence and my ability to achieve it. I had done the preparation and just needed to get the ball rolling! 

I had actually hesitated to get help for a long time because I always thought I could sort out my long-standing problem with procrastination by myself but it never happened. Finally, I had to admit to myself that I needed someone to help me to get out of my rut! I had goals in my life that I wanted to achieve and I didn’t like the feeling that I was letting time pass by without doing anything to achieve them. When I spoke to Umar, he took the time to explain to me how he works. Being a Psychotherapist myself, I became very interested in his approach and I decided to try it and it worked! 

During the session, Umar explained to me how he works and he made me feel at ease throughout it. Talking about a personal problem can be daunting, especially if the problem makes us feel bad about ourselves but Umar made me feel comfortable talking about it and guided me through this process of change until my problem was gone. I also noticed how I was beginning to distance myself from my original problem and beginning to adopt a different frame of mind and perspective about how I tend to do things as well as when I choose not to! Umar pointed me in this direction and showed me how to be kinder to myself in my self-talk too. These two aspects enabled me to move on and work on what is my goal. As a result of working with Umar, I am now setting up my own business and no longer leave the difficult tasks for later any more. I deal with things as they come, and it makes me feel better about myself and more confident in my abilities.

Thanks to Umar I managed to achieve a long-wanted goal and become a better version of myself and the procrastination is long gone. I cannot recommend Umar enough. Umar is an excellent listener, compassionate, caring and competent coach.”
