How to stop procrastinating

This has been requested so here we go! I have been studying for my finals for months now (and they are coming tomorrow!!!!) so I did collect some knowledge on procrastinating and how to stop it:

Realise that whatever you’re avoiding isn’t as bad as your mind makes it to be -Things are ALWAYS easier once you start doing them

Plan to do a small and not too intimidating portion of the task -Let’s say you have to read a book for an assignment. Then tell yourself to read 10 pages. Just 10. Later it will turn out to be easier to continue past that but now we need to trick your brain 

Count to 3 and GO! -This is one of the smallest things that changed my life. When I really don’t want to do something I just count to three and do it. 3 seconds don’t give you time to doubt yourself and be afraid

Change your surroundings accordingly -Try to get rid off as many distractions as you can and at the same time make sure your surrounding isn’t unbelievably boring and depressing. Try playing music without lyrics and try to make your study place aesthetically pleasing 

Get your phone away -Either delete your social media apps (that’s what I had to do eventually), turn off your phone or at least put it out of your reach (or a differrent room)

Ask someone to check up on you -If you can, ask someone to come and kick you in the butt if they catch you procrastinating

Take breaks that can’t turn into procrastination again -Go for a walk, clean something or just lie down on the floor but no phone and no scrolling! Nothing addictive or I’ll haunt you

Be kinder to yourself -Beating yourself up over procrastinating and calling yourself bad things will only make you feel shittier and less productive. Be gentle with yourself. Ask yourself to do things nicely

Sometimes it is okay not to be productive -Blogs like mine can make you think that working all the time is the goal. But it’s not true at all. Sometimes procrastination can be a side effect of exhaustion or a mental illness even. Get some rest if you need it

I hope I helped and have an amazing day!
