Why do we want to study and work efficiently, but always put it off until the last minute? Let's talk about procrastination.
1
First try to accept that you have procrastination. It can be said that most people will have procrastination. In fact, procrastination is most common in people who pursue perfection and do things seriously and responsibly. It is precisely because "if you don't do it, you must do your best" that you will delay, dare not start, and often finish the task at the last minute. It also shows that procrastinators are actually smart. If you start, it may change and waste time, so it is better to do it immediately when your eyebrows are on fire. Of course, the quality of the task completed in this way may not be much better, and the middle process is quite painful. If you don't play well, you think that the task is not completed.

I often ask myself: "Is what I am doing the most important thing at present?" This is the experience of Zuckerberg, the founder of Die. He is very busy, but he never delays. He can accomplish many seemingly impossible tasks and plans every year, relying on this simple sentence.

Set a fixed time and form a habit: For example, every night at 7-9 pm, Ray sits at his desk motionless, does not play mobile phones or games, which is a bit boring. So, you have to do something, right? Why don't you try to start working or studying? You will find that you can surprise yourself by completing many tasks in advance, and the easier you do, the more confident you will be and the psychological burden will disappear. Remember to reward yourself in time.

Learn to prioritize and prioritize what you want to do.
Classification: There are bound to be some unexpected emergency problems in life. Winners spend time doing the most important things, not the most urgent things. Divide all the work into four categories: equal emphasis on urgency, emphasizing but not urgent, urgent but not heavy, neither urgent nor heavy, and complete them in turn.
Decomposition: divide big tasks into small tasks.
five
Eliminate interference. Turn off WeChat, QQ, music, TV ... isolate everything that will affect your work efficiency and do one thing wholeheartedly.
six
Supervise each other. It is much easier to find a few friends to overcome this bad habit than to play by yourself.
seven
Set more specific goals. You might as well divide the task into small controllable goals. When your home looks like a garbage station, it may be unrealistic to make it spotless at once, but it is not too difficult to spend fifteen minutes cleaning the desk.
eight
Don't give yourself too long. Psychologist Favall found that graduate students who spend two years finishing their thesis can always leave some time for themselves to relax. Those who spend three years or more writing papers spend almost every minute collecting information and writing. So sometimes the longer the working hours drag on, the lower the working efficiency.
nine
Don't beautify stress. Don't believe the wrong statement that there are always brave people under pressure. You can make a timetable and set short, medium and long-term goals to avoid putting everything off until the last minute.
10
Seek professional help. If procrastination is serious enough to affect your future, you might as well see a psychologist. Cognitive behavioral therapy may be effective.
If you are also a serious procrastinator, you must try the above method! It may be a little difficult to take action to completely overcome procrastination, but it can definitely alleviate or improve procrastination appropriately ~
