Ways to help pass procrastination and eventually get things done.

預防并克服拖拉

You don’t need to“have to,”you need to“want to”

沒有“必須做”，只有“想要做”

if you feel like you“have to”do something you’ll automatically feel a sense of restrainment and negativity, that comes naturally when we’re feeling obliged to do something. this leads to some serious procrastination issues and is most encountered at work. the solution here is to shift your mindset from“have to”to“want to.”be a firm believer that if you don’t want to do something, then you don’t have to. simple as that. this might of course have some serious consequences, like loosing your job for instance (in the most extreme cases), but if manage to master the art of avoiding unwanted activities, you won’t have any trouble. there are some unpleasant tasks that we can’t avoid, like work for some (i never could understand why some people would choose to make their living in a field of activity they displease), but even then we can avoid procrastination by tricking our brain. you can do this by finding anything remotely pleasant about what you’re about to do, no matter how small and then think about it all the time, while you pursue the respective unpleasant task. this will cheat your brain into thinking you want to do it, not have to.

如果有什么事情是你感覺是“必須”要做的，那么你會不由自主的產生一種消極抵觸的情緒，當你感到“被迫”要去做什么事情是自然會產生這種情緒。 這將會導致一些嚴重的拖拉問題，大部分發生在工作問題上。 解決這個問題的辦法是將“必須做”的思想傾向轉變成“想要做”。堅信如果你不想做什么事情，你就不必去做它。就這么簡單。當然，這也許會導致一些嚴重的后果，例如立即丟了你的工作（在極端的情況下），但是如果你能掌握如何躲避不想做的事情的藝術時，這種情況就不會發生。有些不令人高興的事情我們無法避免，例如替別人做事（我一直不明白為什么有些人要生活在他們不滿意的行業中），對于這種事情我們可以用欺騙自己的技巧來避免拖拉。 你可以在你將要做的任務中尋找任何值得你高興的方面，哪怕是一點點，然后你就一直想它，然后再去做那些不高興的任務。這種方法可以騙過你的心智，讓你覺得你想要去做它，而不是必須做。
