"I have never seen an experience on procrastination broken down into such a practical and digestible manner".
Transform procrastination into progress with gamified strategies
Procrastination is not always bad. Sometimes stepping back can spark creativity. But when it becomes a habit, it holds students back, steals opportunities, and leaves them with regret and self-doubt.
What if they could turn that around? What if hesitation became action, and overwhelm turned into confidence?
That is what my Journey System is all about. I show students how to gamify their goals, build momentum, and make progress every day. It is about turning procrastination into action and creating a life they are proud of.
Let’s give students the tools to break the cycle and reach their full potential.
Keynote Topic
Turning Procrastination into unstoppable progress
This one-hour keynote gets to the root of why we procrastinate. Procrastination is not a laziness problem, it is a disconnect between our goals and our daily actions. We think we need more willpower, but what we really need is a system. Marouane Al Mandri introduces the Journey System, a proven 5-step framework that helps students overcome mental resistance, stop relying on motivation, and take consistent action with confidence.
Through personal stories, neuroscience insights, and practical tools, attendees learn how to break their goals into identity-based micro habits, gamify their consistency, and shift from overwhelmed to in control. This is not just about getting things done. It is about turning procrastination into progress and progress into identity change.
Perfect for high school and university students battling with focus and drive, this keynote gives them a mindset and system they can actually stick to. One small win at a time, they learn how to stop delaying and start becoming the person they know they can be.
