Eliminate procrastination and the world is yours.

Do you have procrastination?

In the morning, you set the alarm clock for six o'clock, but the alarm clock rang and your mind was full of unfinished dreams. In addition, overlapping sleepiness came, and you reached out and pressed the alarm clock, thinking that I would sleep for another ten minutes, just ten minutes.

But you accidentally slept for an extra hour, and it was already seven o'clock when you woke up. You want to sit up, wash your face, brush your teeth, have breakfast, and then read a book.

But the bed is too warm and the mobile phone is too fun. If you are not careful, you will stay until nine o'clock.

After nine o'clock, you get dressed and get up slowly with a piece of bread in your mouth. You brush Weibo while eating breakfast, and then look at your watch: I will brush Weibo for another five minutes, and then I will read.

But you accidentally spent an extra hour on Weibo. When the book stand is in front of you, you think it's time for lunch. You should wait until you finish learning. Anyway, you have an afternoon.

But in the end you were careless. Until eleven o'clock in the evening, you slept in bed and wondered what you did today.

You have done nothing but play with your mobile phone.

You begin to regret and even get angry: you know you should study, but you just can't control the power of the flood in your body. You want to play mobile phone and watch TV, and you keep saying "play for another ten minutes, play for another ten minutes" every time, but playing for a whole day until the latest negligence.

Shakespeare said it well: I wasted time, and time wasted me.

From the day you procrastinate, it seems that you are doomed to failure-people who are busy with exams are studying step by step every day, but you procrastinate again and again, and finally find that you have learned nothing when the exam comes;

People who are busy with the year-end assessment work hard every day according to the year-end goal, but you wait and wait until the end of the year to find that you are not competitive at all.

So you start to give up on yourself: forget it, it's all like this anyway, and it's no use trying.

Did I say your day? Or, is it your life?

According to the survey, about 75% of college students think they sometimes procrastinate, and 50% think they always like to procrastinate.

What is procrastination?

Procrastination refers to the failure of self-regulation. It is still an act of delaying what you plan to do when the consequences can be expected to be harmful.

What do you mean? You knew it was bad, but you did it anyway. I once read a sentence in Weibo: I know that hard work may not be successful, but it is really comfortable not to work hard. That's about it. I know it's bad not to work hard, but I still can't help it.

In life, there are always many times I can't help it. I can't help but watch more TV, play more mobile phones, and chat with one person for a while.

But you just can't help it. After all, you swore to study hard, and you put it off until the end.

The problem is that many people can't bear the consequences of their procrastination, so there will be various negative physical and mental effects. Many people will blame themselves, feel guilty, and feel strongly guilty about themselves. In severe cases, they will constantly deny themselves and belittle themselves, and even develop into psychological diseases such as anxiety and depression.

Many people like to make plans for themselves before doing things, which is a good habit. Making a plan can let us know better what we need to do and how long it will take.

But most people don't succeed, not because they don't have a plan, but because they are constantly discounted in the process of completion. For example, if what they plan to finish in one hour is delayed for two hours and three hours, then the subsequent plans will be disrupted because of the delay, leading to the butterfly effect, which will lead to the overall disorder of the whole plan and will not have a good ending.

So, how to fight procrastination? Although I haven't done well in this respect, I want to give you some suggestions based on my years of experience and the good momentum of slight improvement:

First, instead of being annoyed that you just didn't grasp it, it is better to start working hard from this moment.

There is a saying that the earliest time is when it is too late.

One of the things I used to do most often was to think about what I did during the day before going to bed at night, but often it turned out to be another day wasted.

So I will blame myself, why is it always like this, and my feelings finally sublimate into "I feel like a bad person." After discovering his nature, he began to toss and turn and couldn't sleep. He didn't fall asleep until early morning, and he couldn't get up early the next day. Today's plan has been ruined again.

In the long run, this vicious circle is not a big deal, but it always tortures itself and cannot extricate itself.

But one day, I suddenly felt as if I had been knocked on the top of the skull by a bodhisattva, and I thought, instead of blaming myself all the time, it is better to grasp it from now on.

For example, I wasted all my time from 10: 30 this morning, and now I'm going to eat at 1 1: 00, so why can't I spend the last half hour reading an article?

Many people don't pay attention to spare time, but forget that what you have the most every day is spare time.

Use five minutes to recite, maybe the whole person will become more confident and tell myself that I didn't waste these five minutes.

And there are too many such five minutes in a day. If we can seize these scattered time, the benefits will not be mentioned for the time being. At the very least, you will give yourself the confidence to grow, which will help you fight procrastination.

Second, forgive yourself and don't dwell on the past.

The story that sheep are late to mend is almost known to all women and children, but few people have really implemented it. "Duo" seems to be a broken experience in life.

Poisonous chicken soup is often more reasonable than chicken soup. You don't know what will happen if you don't work hard.

But if you don't work hard, things will get worse. Is it really comfortable for people who lead a drunken life? I don't know. Anyway, for me, I prefer the day of full struggle. Lack of sleep has a headache, and too much sleep also hurts. A gentleman is moderate, and a gentleman is in the middle.

You can look back at the past at any time, but don't stay in the past and come out. Don't indulge in the sadness of the past, and don't sleep in the joy of the past.

Not thinking about the past and not being afraid of the future is the long-term way.

Third, exercise your self-control.

I read a book called Self-control in my early days. The general content is that people's self-control is not innate, and it can be cultivated as long as the mind wants it. The main component in the brain is gray matter. The more gray matter in the area that dominates self-control, the stronger your self-control.

So, how can we increase that piece of gray matter? Scientific research shows that gray matter can flow.

When you deliberately exercise to develop an area, the gray matter will be concentrated in that area.

Therefore, in daily life, we can exercise and strengthen our self-control through meditation, recording, summarizing and practicing. Every time it succeeds, the gray matter of that piece will gradually increase.

For example, if you need to quit smoking, you can put cigarettes in all parts of your home to remind yourself not to smoke. After a long time, you can control your desire for tobacco, and your addiction will not be so great.

Similarly, if you want to get rid of procrastination, you should start with small things, such as washing socks today, but from morning till night, from today to tomorrow, you always want to procrastinate.

It's better to cheer up and force yourself to finish it at once. After all, washing socks is just a trivial matter, and it is not difficult to finish it.

But if you do more such little things, you can achieve the effect of exercise and improve your self-control, so it will be much easier to kill procrastination.

Fourth, do what you like.

Will you be late if the male god asks you for a walk?

If the morning urine urges you, will you stay in bed If someone told you that you can get 10 thousand yuan when you get up at four o'clock every day, would you still feel sleepy?

When a person faces something he likes, where can he have procrastination?

In the end, what you put off didn't touch your G-spot at all. When we face a thing and show a very strong desire and gain heart, your performance will be surprisingly satisfactory.

There is a saying that love is enough to resist the whole world. When you really love something, you are willing to do whatever you are asked to do.

Many experts in "Great Craftsman" have been on the bench for decades. Imagine, without love, decades will become a torment, but if you do it with a sincere heart, ten years will only be a snap of your fingers.
