Procrastination: Simple ways to overcome it

What does it mean when a person keeps on delaying his work? He doesn't want to start his task. He finds it better to postpone. 

What is procrastination?
Procrastination is the state of mind where people keeps on avoiding the work they might be doing at a certain deadline. People often compare procrastination with a mental disorder. But does it make sense? 
For some people, it might be symptomatic of a psychological disorder. It is because procrastination has been linked with negative terms like low self-esteem, irrational behavior, and so on. 

Why do people procrastinate? 
  • If they do not like the work.
  • If they do not know where to start.
  • If they do not like the person to work with. 
  • If the person fails to prioritize their task. 
How to overcome it? 
  1. Break your big task into small ones and start working on them.  
Example: If you have the assignment to submit on Friday, break your assessment for each day. Do the introduction part on Sunday. Do next on Monday and so on. It makes your task look short and simple. 
     
     2. Use a timer.

Put your timer for 25 min and do not get distracted. Take 5 min break after working for 25 mins without any distraction. 

  3. Reward yourself 
After completing your work, reward yourself with something you love. You can continue watching the series or take a nap but only after you accomplish your task. 
 


Try these simple tricks to avoid procrastination.

His arms were not comfortable

Some people claim that being in arms of your beloved one gives you the greater pleasure!  It is the safest and comfortable place in the world !!  With one who makes you believe that love exists Someone who can easily read your mind  Someone who can understand your emotion just of your body gestures  One who is never happy without your sparkle !!

Thing I’m missing today..

                                                                                         Those small pairs of gloves my parent used to bring  Since, I was one day old and opened my eyes for the first time I’m missing them right now. I’m desperately missing them. It’s not because I took sunbath this cold morning and had time to go through album to see baby me.  Not because I was staring at my hands for several minutes the day before yesterday.  And knowing my palms have clear lines  But also I didn’t remember my tiny gloves because of soft and beautiful hands I own. That small two and a half years baby with bare foot and cracked cheeks  That kid, whose pillow was stone and bed was that street. He made me compel to miss those warm gloves I used to have back then, when I could not even remember one single thing.                                                                          -Prapti Khanal
