For those important activities and tasks, leave enough time within your day to do them. Obviously, if you have something important to do later on, intend to take it seriously and give yourself time to do them. If you're not going to take those tasks, activities, and goals seriously, then why even have them on your list in the first place? Essentially, if you want to be a man/woman of your word, well, become a man/woman of your word by tackling the obstacle/s in front of you.
