We’ve got so many things that has to be done, but for some people like me who gets easily distracted all the time and also sometimes i just lose interest with important things to do that was my responsibility and end up watching drama all day, pushing out work off my mind.
I don’t like being unproductive, i like to accomplish some new important things everyday and that makes me happy. But you know, there is always work that seems difficult or intricate that makes you choose flight than fight. It may not solve the problem, but you think if you flight for a moment you could come back with full attention and high energy on that.
Or it may not.
It is ok to have a setback period when you stuck on something, but you have to admit that if your setback period is binge watching drama on netflix probably not a good idea. Your brain will not actively working and keeps telling you to go on watching until you neglecting your responsibility.
So the next time you feel like you stuck on something, choose your setback activity wisely by choosing ones that keeps your brain actively working and thinking. It can be something simple like take a shower, do laundry, cleaning your room, reading, go outside and eat at your favorite restaurant, something that refresh your body and mind and let it wander around. So that you can begin again your work in a really fresher condition.
Good luck fighting your procrastination!
