The ways successful people defeat procrastination.

成功人士战胜拖延的方法。

They tie themselves to the mast.

他们把自己绑在桅杆上

In Homer's Odyssey, Odysseus has his ship's crew tiehim to the mast so that he could hear the Sirens’ song without being drawn inand tempted to jump into the sea. If you're a chronic procrastinator and simplycan't resist the temptations of things like Facebook and Youtube, it might betime to tie yourself to the mast.

在《荷马的奥德赛》一书中，奥德修斯让他的船员们把他绑在桅杆上，这样他就能听到塞壬的歌声而不被引诱并试图跳进海中。如果你是一个慢性拖延症患者，对Facebook和Youtube这类诱惑物没有抵抗力的话，是时候把自己绑在桅杆上了。（塞壬：古希腊传说中半人半鸟的女海妖，惯以美妙的歌声引诱水手，使他们的船只或触礁或驶入危险水域）

There are tools such as Rescue Time, SelfControl andFocus that will temporarily block access to distracting websites like Facebookso you can work on the things that matter. It's an extreme measure but alsovery effective.

一些类似于Rescue Time、SelfControl、Focus的工具可以暂时阻止你进入Facebook这类让人分心的网站，这样你就能专心做重要的事情。方法比较极端，但确实非常有效。

There are less aggressive tools such as Facebook Newsfeed Eradicator and Distraction Free Youtube. These will allow you to haveaccess to Facebook and Youtube but block the distracting parts of these websites （such as the newsfeed）so youcan still use them for business purposes, like managing ads.

还有一些不那么极端的工具，像是Facebook Newsfeed Eradicator和Distraction Free Youtube，这些工具能让你接触Facebook和Youtube，但是会禁用一些让人分心的模块（如新闻供应）。这样一来你仍然可以用它们进行工作，比如管理广告。
