Procrastination Is Hopeless. What Should I Do?

Speaking of procrastination, I think of an English joke. Question: Which nation in the world has the highest population? The answer is: Procrastination (procrastination). Although the joke is lost in Chinese, we can learn from it that there are many people with procrastination throughout the world. How high is the ratio, no statistics can be made, but some information seen by Mr. Zhao claims that individuals are more or less procrastinating.

Why?

According to Wikipedia, miss Freud thinks procrastination is directly related to human nature. And the human nature here means that people always tend to give themselves Pleasure Principle rather than suffer. The more you feel guilty, the more comfortable you feel. Of course you can't say no, but you can't be a normal human being.

It is said that the biggest symptom of procrastination is to do "serious business" instead of doing it and spend a lot of time doing other things. Serious business here is often a matter of importance and priority. It is stressful and unpleasant, such as your daily work. And other things, often do not have pressure, and can get a lot of fun, such as playing games, brush micro-blog.

Many years ago, an American economist, George Akerlof, was a visiting scholar in India, and his colleague, Joseph Stiglitz (Joseph Stiglitz), visited India during the teacher's visit. They had been roommates for a while. Before returning home, Stiglitz commissioned acrov to send his suitcase to the United States. Ah, the teacher readily agreed, chest beat red, said no problem wrapped in brothers, you can rest assured that the road.

Guess how long has it been taken by teacher?

Nearly nine months.

A teacher later wrote: "when he left, every morning he told himself that he had to send the box clothes to him early in the morning. But busy every day and busy working with India's post office is not a pleasant thing. At last, brother himself was going to return home. He knew that it would be too late to do it again. It happened that another colleague would send something back to China. After that, the elder brother went straight to the airport. The brothers arrived first, and the boxes were worn for several weeks before they arrived.

In view of his famous behavioural economist, there is an economic explanation for any behavior. It inspired him very much. In 1991, he wrote an economic article called Procrastination and Obedience. Ten years later, acrov and Stiglitz won the Nobel prize in economics. Unfortunately, it is not because of the study of procrastination, otherwise it is really "perfect" in the words of the master.

You see, the Nobel laureates also have procrastination. Is everyone satisfied?

Workplace Procrastination There were two patients who had seen most of the patients. One of them said, "I'll call you in half an hour." Then there was no news until he wanted to take the initiative to find you; another caller in the pager era had the habit of calling back two weeks later. He said, "what did you say to me half a month ago?" but think about it for two years. Perhaps this is just their work habit, not a real procrastination.

There are two kinds of things to do in the workplace or in life, one is what you have to do, one is what you want to do. On this basis, we can talk about the importance and priority. What you have to do is often the task that the boss has to give you, so it is stressful and the process may not be happy, and the result may not be what you want. But in the eyes of the boss, he (she) let you do is a serious matter. The boss will not make a good impression on you when you delay this kind of thing.

If your boss is a home style, that is, every time. Assignment You will clearly explain the specifications and specify deadlines. You may be better off. Those who are not accustomed to or simply do not like to understand the parameters, besides speculate on their psychological period, suggest that you should take the initiative to ask when it is necessary to finish at the latest.

There must be a deadline for everything that must be done, and then it should be solved according to priorities and importance. Previously, I mentioned five days before I entered the company to think about what I must do today. I would like to draw a four quadrant matrix after finishing the door, and finish one work off. It has been reported by readers that this way of managing daily tasks and time allocation is effective.

After these things are done, do what you want to do, such as smoking, drinking coffee, gossip, online shopping and micro-blog. But if you want to do that, your career success is also limited.

Professor Balzac has said that I am not in the cafe or on the way to the cafe. Finally, he died of caffeine poisoning. But you must know that Mr. Ba is not just drinking coffee in the cafe. In fact, he is using the cafe to observe all kinds of life and listen to various anecdotes to enrich his writing, not to mention how diligent he is in writing.

A sign of maturity is knowing what you want and how you can achieve it. This requires that you first learn to control yourself, manage yourself, and spend more time and energy on improving yourself. It's also important to find pleasure for yourself, but I'm afraid that as you get older, you can only spend less time on pure pleasure.

stay Workplace In order to achieve better development, in many cases, it is anti instinctive, such as laziness, for example, procrastination. If you can overcome these obstacles, you will have more possibilities than others. To do the same thing, people are procrastinating because of drundoing or great pressure, but you can accomplish it efficiently because of more self-control and better time management. You will not stand out for a long time. It must be a big problem for the company's personnel system.

Therefore, in order to cure our procrastination, the first task is to realize whether we have procrastination on important tasks so as to affect our career development. If you do, you'd better hurry up and improve.

In addition, if you have a vigorous and clean colleague or friend, please treasure it.

In those days, there was a steady and precise colleague in the team. Every time he had a task, he would make time for the whole team, so that we never miss the deadline we had promised to our customers. After a meeting with an important customer, he made a drink of wine. This man made sure that he could finish the program to the customer on the second day he promised to promise, and the last thing he said before he drank the whole night was: "don't forget, you promised the customer that he would receive our plan early tomorrow morning."

He rushed back to the hotel and wrote the book all night, and sent it out on the bright day. Then walking to Tiananmen square, watching the flag raising ceremony, and realizing that the teachers of the flag class never procrastinate.

You have a sense of mission in your work, and about half of your procrastination is cured.
