Thieves of our time

One of the important steps in overcoming procrastination (procrastination) is to accurately determine what is taking our time.

These thieves are called triggers.

Triggers are both internal and external. Conscious and unconscious.

Internal triggers: Feeling unwell, overwork, excessive emotionality. When we are overworked, self-control decreases and it is more difficult for us to force ourselves to act.

External triggers: People, situations, time of year, time of day.

Unconscious triggers: Social networks, TV shows, movies, video games, entertainment TV shows, YouTube, talk shows, music programs.

Key cognitions or excuses (I deserve it, it's just one time, one more time and that's it, etc.)

Social environment.

Internal dialogue, complacency, the very persuasion of the transfer to later.

Example: “I’d better start writing my work tomorrow with a fresh mind, or I need another week to think it over, I don’t want to make a blunder at breakneck speed.” You can argue, and what is wrong with that? That a person cannot start with a fresh mind, or take time to think?

Of course, it can, but not when such excuses are systemic, and a week turns into 2 months, and then, into half a year.

Excessive pauses. Coffee breaks, smoke breaks, switching to social networks, etc.

Acquired habits. Not everyone starts their morning with coffee or exercise. British statistics show that over 45% of respondents start their day with a mobile phone. Surfing the Internet, checking social. networks, checking mail, visiting sites with sports statistics, football for example.

Dear reader, can you pause and remember how your day starts?

I hope the article was useful for you, friends.
