National ‘Just Do It’ Day 2023: Date, Background, Procrastination Facts

National “Just Do It” Day is January 24, and we’re here to help you commemorate the occasion in grand fashion. The first National “Just Do It” Day was observed in 2015. It is a day that motivates us to try new things or to finally complete that one task we’ve been putting off. It motivates us to begin altering our lives by doing the one small task we keep putting off, such as phoning your grandmother, cleaning the garage, or sending that email. A single action can result in significant change.

The background of National “Just Do It” Day

National “Just Do It” Day is said to have been observed for the first time in 2015, although the precise roots of this event remain unknown. Since then, people have taken advantage of this day to try something new. People have used this day to do things they’ve always wanted to do but never did because something was holding them back, such as travel plans that were never carried through, job applications that were never delivered, or relationships that were never given a chance.

Nike’s motto “Just Do It” is one of the company’s most known brand elements. In 1988, the tagline was first used at a marketing meeting. Gary Gilmore’s (twice-convicted killer) final words, “Let’s do it,” served as the inspiration for Dan Wieden’s “Just Do It” Nike tagline.

The phrase “Just Do It” is engrained in the American mentality and represents much more than shoes. People moving to the U.S. are astonished by the ease with which driven Americans get things done, exemplified by the tagline. The tagline also personifies concentration and success, which makes it perfect for a day when we handle unfinished and undone tasks or embark on the daring trip we have always put off. The words are the antithesis of a couch potato and inspire individuals to be their best selves.
