    Here are the 5 things in my 15 minute daily ritual (go to description for links):
    1. Make coffee.
    2. Write out 1 to 3 most important tasks.
    3. Find solitude (aka self-isolate while self-isolating 😂).
    4. Headphones + Lo-Fi Beats/Deep Focus Playlist.
    5. Eliminate distractions by using Freedom App + Deleting Social Apps before work.

    I would like to share what I do, in case someone finds it interesting:
    - The day before, plan what you want to do and be realsitic, leave room for failure (example: study 5 units, but doing 3 is fine)
    - Wake up at the same hour everyday. It doesn't have to be very early, just the same, to build a habit and a sense of purpose.
    - Identify what you like, and use it as a reward. If you are binge watching a series that you like very much, try to earn the joy of watching it. This is important so as to not fall in a pit of guilt and malaise, where nothing makes you happy. You can for example start by dedicating 30 min of work (maybe with a Pomodoro and relaxing music) and then playing 30 min of Animal Crossing. This makes you enjoy your relaxing times, and not feel guilty. As time goes by, you can maybe dedicate the whole morning to work and the evenings to yourself.
    - Set your space as you like. This is obvious, but very important. Have a shower and get dressed, don't be with your pijama all day, ventilate your room, do your bed, free your desk from papers and clothes and THEN sit down on your desk. Turn your phone off or put it in another room. And just start doing work. Just starting is a huge step because it breaks the ice, you find that it is not as horrible as your brain put it in advance, and just do as much as you can. Sitting in your chair instead of laying in bed makes it easier, trust me.
    - Find ways to enter the flow state: if your house is not quiet, try to put soft music in the background (Sunday Study music playlist by Thom Frank, Lo-Fi streaming, classical music...), ambience videos (rain, white noise, library ambience, coffee shop ambience, etc.) or even no talking asmr. If you use the music that you like, chances are that you will get distracted by singing the lyrics or by a catchy part of the song, but you do you.
    Hopefully someone finds any of these points worth reading. Keep going.

    My top 8 favorite quotes on Procrastination:
    1- “The only difference between success and failure is the ability to take action.”
    - Alexander Graham Bell
    2- "Don't quit, suffer now, and live the rest of your life as a champion."
    - Muhammad Ali
    3- “Things may come to those who wait, but only the things left by those who hustle.”
    - Abraham Lincoln
    4- “One of the most tragic things I know about human nature is that all of us tend to put off living. We are all dreaming of some magical rose garden over the horizon - instead of enjoying the roses blooming outside our windows today.”
    - Dale Carnegie
    5- “Procrastination is opportunity’s natural assassin.”
    - Victor Kiam
    6- “Begin doing what you want to do now. We are not living in eternity. We have only this moment, sparkling like a star in our hand, and melting like a snowflake.”
    - Francis Bacon
    7- “A year from now you may wish you had started today.”
    - Karen Lamb
    8- “There is nothing so fatal to character as half-finished tasks.”
    - David Lloyd George

      @Sarah Bailey Yep there's some truth to that as well. It's basically more about not being a Reactionary and just jumping into things without thinking and analyzing.
      It's about the wisdom to know where to invest our time & energy, and where not to.
      On the other hand, if someone is putting things off only because of laziness or misaligned priorities, then that might not serve them well and he/she might lose a lot of great opportunities.

    “Procrastination is the common manifestation of resistance because it is easier to rationalise” I think no one has defined procrastination so perfectly before. 👍🏻🙏🏻

    • @LetoDK
      @LetoDK 4 года назад +1

      Meh, now you just have to define "resistance" instead.
      The more useful definition of procrastination, is that it's is your minds' solution to a problem, and that problem is usually some negative emotions that you want to avoid. You have to find out what you are avoiding (often fears of failing, or maybe your task isn't well-defined so you don't know what progress will actually look like).
      When you find out what negative emotions you are avoiding, you can implement an actual solution.
      Procrastination is NOT a problem - it's a solution to a problem you haven't discovered or identified yet.

    The fact that I'm already into these habits (well, almost) reminds me how far I've come from the days when I didn't know what to do. No state is going to last forever and I'll face low points again, but the main thing is to get up again.
    Also, a tip: get into a flow of your work, don't mess with that flow. take breaks ofc but don't keep interrupting yourself again and again.

    Love this! I'd like to share some tips I use as well for fighting procrastination:
    1. Focusing on completing tasks rather than postponing them to better take advantage of your free time.
    2. Spend some of your free time on activities that guarantee value and personal growth
    3. Identify your Bermuda triangle (3 social media accounts you spend most time on) to understand how your time is spent.
    4. Make a simple To-Do-List to track your various tasks, to avoid forgetting and accumulating unexpected work - as well as completing them one by one.
    5. If things still aren’t going as well as they might, make a schedule to properly manage your time and keep yourself structured and organised.
    6. Distinguish and separate when you use time for work, free time & free time with added value and growth.
    7. Use some free time to produce (create anything that's completely your own: a paper, a video, an audio, painting...) rather than consume.
    8. Find a passion to develop and don’t worry if it changes overtime.

    When quiting coffee, having a hot tea is a good substitute for the making of the coffee as well as having a warm drink. It is not a replacement for coffee, just the action. I found this very helpful when I was quitting coffee. I eventually went back to decaf, because if I miss 1 day of regular=headaches, I.Hate.Headaches!

      @@hindenburg2006I started cussing because of a very difficult time in my life that I thought I had no control over. I hated that so much in myself that I would catch myself starting to say it and would apologize if it came out or just stop mid-cuss. I relied on prayer and learning to just not speak: maybe you've heard: if you don't have something nice to say, don't say anything. There is also the proverb, a foolish man uttereth all his mind, but a wise man keepeth it in til afterward. Occasionally a "oh, poopies" or "boogers" comes out, but it's a far cry from cussing. Like everything, it takes practice. Thanks for asking 😊

The idea is to immediately trigger u what to do rather than digesting the long sentence on what u supposed to do.so shifting between task is very smooth and made easy. Just few second glance then u know what to do next already. Owh if u got 10 or more things to do, u can prioritize by ticking top 3 next to your list. Once finish,erase the tick n start ticking other until u finish striking through all task/ things to do. So yeah, handwritten to do list really help.

    Honestly, what helps me with procrastination while working from home for the past 8 months is:
    - Having Routine and pushing through that routine no matter what
    - Having a designated work space at home. And having 2 extra spots where you can work if you get tired of one spot.
    - Letting the people you work with know you’re doing serious work and schedule time with them later in the day.
    - Working 90 minutes, 30 minutes break sessions
    - Taking 2 mental health rest days a week. Most of my work is mentally intensive where I sit and have to concentrate and be mentally involved regularly. So if we take a rest day from a physical workout regimen, why don’t we give our minds a break too? I also stay away from social media and reading the news on those days. My mental health days are either Wednesday’s and Sundays or Saturday’s and Sundays.

    • @helzikinz
      @helzikinz 4 года назад +2

      ArtAway Great Question! Obviously I would recommend to use your intuition. I find that an hour in is when I’m reaching my peak of the project I work on. So the additional 30 minutes gives me a chance to finish things up. When I’m done with the project, though, then I’ll take a break.
      If I’m seeing after 90 minutes that I will finish the project in 5-15 minutes then I’ll see it through because I’m in that state of flow.
      What helps is setting a timer so you can keep track of time.
      For certain activities such as social media, I limit my time to those 90 minutes even if I haven’t gotten through everything I wanted to.
      So I would say, identify which activities are most income-producing and with them you work until that task is finished.
      Other tasks such as social media (which can cannibalise the time you would’ve spent on your income-producing activities) definitely limit them.
      What is it that you do?

    @azore1184 4 года назад +33

    A pencil is an implement for writing or drawing, constructed of a narrow, solid pigment core in a protective casing that prevents the core from being broken and/or marking the user's hand.
    Pencils create marks by physical abrasion, leaving a trail of solid core material that adheres to a sheet of paper or other surface. They are distinct from pens, which dispense liquid or gel ink onto the marked surface.
    Most pencil cores are made of graphite powder mixed with a clay binder. Graphite pencils (traditionally known as 'lead pencils') produce grey or black marks that are easily erased, but otherwise resistant to moisture, most chemicals, ultraviolet radiation and natural aging. Other types of pencil cores, such as those of charcoal, are mainly used for drawing and sketching. Coloured pencils are sometimes used by teachers or editors to correct submitted texts, but are typically regarded as art supplies-especially those with waxy core binders that tend to smear when erasers are applied to them. Grease pencils have a softer, crayon-like waxy core that can leave marks on smooth surfaces such as glass or porcelain.
    The most common pencil casing is thin wood, usually hexagonal in section but sometimes cylindrical or triangular, permanently bonded to the core. Casings may be of other materials, such as plastic or paper. To use the pencil, the casing must be carved or peeled off to expose the working end of the core as a sharp point. Mechanical pencils have more elaborate casings which are not bonded to the core; instead, they support separate, mobile pigment cores that can be extended or retracted through the casing's tip as needed. These casings can be reloaded with new cores (usually graphite) as the previous ones are exhausted.

    I'm sorry but the penguin was EVERYTHING!!! I promise that I was listening and taking note of everything you said and I think your tips are amazing. I'm definitely going to try to incorporate them into my routine but the penguin though...and your expression was hilarious! Thank you for making such good content for a procrastinator such as myself!

    I have basically the same set up for studying: coffee, writing down tasks in my planner, being alone, music,(I listen to the exact same playlists!). I also
    1) set up a time goals for each day in form of countdown on my phone, it helps me to stay on track, as I was initially getting distracted every couple minutes. I pause whenever I stop working (coffee refill) so I know how much time exactly I spend working.
    2) put the phone away far enough for me to have to stand up to get it. My lazy ass wins with want for distraction almost every time 😂
