    Hey, I understand this video was posted 3 years ago but I have to say, it's one of my favorite videos on the platform. It's so good at stopping me from procrastinating because of how straightforward and to the point it is. Sometimes when I know I'm procrastinating I will search up this video to snap myself out of it. And today you managed to get me to stop procrastinating about a physical education lesson, an outline of an argumentative essay, and the start of looking for colleges and careers I'm interested in. For what its worth, the advice about managing your emotions is pure wisdom. It's always that feeling that there's a mountain of choices and forgetting to take it one step at a time that cause it to be so prevalent in society. Thanks for this video from the bottom of my heart.

  • @lilasutton4436
    @lilasutton4436 3 роки тому +2

    I think that procrastination actually creates such a vicious cycle that by the time you get the thing done, you're still anxious about how you're procrastinating and just everything about the thing you need to do because if you've been super worried, stressed, and anxious about something, then by the time you're done, your brain just kinda automatically continues being anxious, even if you've done the thing you had to do. So don't procrastinate because if you do, then it even makes getting done with the thing suck.

      In case of “IDK what to do” then just ask someone, like a friend in the same class or a classmate.
      In case of “what if it is stupid” the remember this: teachers will respect you more and give you an easier time if they see an bad project that clearly took real effort to make, than no project, or something rushed. Just do a first draft of it and once that is done tomorrow either keep it as is, or improve it, because no project or something written during recess is X times worse than a bad project .

    Genius. Procrastination is my name. Yesterday i had this HUGE list of work needing done. Notes for 4 classes finished to study and get a killer grade on exams next week, assignments due in linear algebra next morn, 2 lab presentations need worked on, im behind 1.5 chapters in quantum. At class i though "when i get home ill start on it all." But when i got home i somehow talked myself into playing Switch "for an hour." 5 hours later i finally break free and turn off switch to work on it all. Then my phone was in my hand. Next thing i knew it was almost 2am. Same thing today too. Sigh. No will power.

    I'm such a procrastinator, I procrastinated solving the final level in Budget Cuts 2 due to it partially being a time-based challenge. Seriously, it took me a month to even open that level again.
    Essentially, I procrastinate while procrastinating.

    To sum up the video:
    1. Take control of your emotions. You have to notice when you start distracting yourself.
    2. Stop the distraction.
    3. Try and start the task, and if that daunts you, just set up for the task.
    4. Make a clear path to follow for the task at hand.
    5. Only focus on the current step of the task.
    6. Start the task.
