Ways to help pass procrastination and eventually get things done.

预防并克服拖拉

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

没有“必须做”，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觉是“必须”要做的，那么你会不由自主的产生一种消极抵触的情绪，当你感到“被迫”要去做什么事情是自然会产生这种情绪。 这将会导致一些严重的拖拉问题，大部分发生在工作问题上。 解决这个问题的办法是将“必须做”的思想倾向转变成“想要做”。坚信如果你不想做什么事情，你就不必去做它。就这么简单。当然，这也许会导致一些严重的后果，例如立即丢了你的工作（在极端的情况下），但是如果你能掌握如何躲避不想做的事情的艺术时，这种情况就不会发生。有些不令人高兴的事情我们无法避免，例如替别人做事（我一直不明白为什么有些人要生活在他们不满意的行业中），对于这种事情我们可以用欺骗自己的技巧来避免拖拉。 你可以在你将要做的任务中寻找任何值得你高兴的方面，哪怕是一点点，然后你就一直想它，然后再去做那些不高兴的任务。这种方法可以骗过你的心智，让你觉得你想要去做它，而不是必须做。
