To defeat your procrastination habits, make sure that before you even start, you are prepared. Find a suitable place to complete your tasks. So, if you're studying, find a peaceful and comfortable space that you will enjoy studying in. You should also tidy your working space before you start. Most importantly, get away from any type of distractions. Switch off your mobile phone, the TV, gaming consoles and anything else that may distract you. B. Know that there is a time for everything and learn to separate your social life from your academic and working life. Plan your schedule appropriately to fit the times you will work, study, do chores and the times you will relax and have fun. Doing the tasks you know are good for you doesn't mean you have to obliterate your social life. Keep yourself on track with a journal, calendar or a to-do list. C. First, set out what you know needs finishing most urgently and start with that. Never start on a certain project first just because it's the easiest or quickest to do. You have the most motivation at the start of your workday, so always start with what's important. This way, you can get it done and won't have to worry about it later! D. Pick a song that really gets you energised, and play it whenever you want to tackle something you've been procrastinating about. The brain likes to have a trigger to create a new habit, plus you're more likely to follow through when you're feeling good in your body. E. Another good way to overcome procrastination is a Power Hour. It consists of putting away all distractions and working in concentrated chunks of time followed by short periods of rest, in order to harness the optimal performance of your brain and body. Science has discovered that our brain naturally goes through cycles with peaks and valleys. To maximise your output, it is vital that you honour these peaks and valleys by balancing concentrated, focused time with relaxation and integration. F. Remember that you shouldn't complete all of your work in one go. Doing this will only make you feel overwhelmed and you will give in before you even complete the first few tasks. Instead, break each project up into sections, and each time you finish a section of the project give yourself a short break and maybe grab a snack. Research shows the human brain responds to reward stimuli which can be a good way to create habits. G. It can be very helpful to have a bet with your buddy. Choose a day and time within the next week that you will complete a task and then tell your friend or colleague: "I'll give you $10 (take you out to lunch, buy you a coffee, etc.) if I haven't completed this task by next Wednesday at 10 am." Give your friend a date and time within the next week and tell them to check in with you on that appointed day and time. If you haven't completed your task by then, you owe them whatever you bet!
