This is a very good tip, I'll use it later.

"How to stop procrastinating" Literally every RU-vidr: ✨Atomic Habits✨

I try not to procrastinate but since all this year the course had gone online, I'm not left with any other choice but to study from youtube, and now every time I try to study I procrastinate.

Everything changed when I started to procrastinate procrastinating.

He looks like he studies for hours with lo-fi music playing in the background.

OK, I threw way my cellphone and smashed my router. Now the path of least resistance is just sitting there daydreaming or lying down. What does atomic habits say about this?

my worst problem that stops me studying is probably comparing myself to other people cos I end up seeing how much awesome work everyone else is doing and how much they achieve, so much so that i feel like i may aswell do nothing since ill never achieve that. Sometimes you just gotta accept that you are your own person and can only work as hard as you can. Good luck :)

I'm literally procrastinating and forced my self to watch this haha

the path with the least resistance is the one you'll chose. so increase resistance on the activities you don't desire to do.

Never pressed on a notification so fast

Phone on the table Me: I don't need it I DON'T need it *sweating profusely* I DON'T NEED IT I DON'T NEEEEED IIIT ... I NEEEEEED IT

Increase the resistance of the things that tend to distract you and that you tend to procrastinate in. For example: if you check you phone a lot, turn it off and put it outside the room.

I remember as a kid I would have such good focus, there were so little distractions in my mind. It is like with eating healthy, if you make the decision in the shop and get no unhealthy foods into the house, you will not be able to eat them. If your room or mind is clean then you will not be able to get sucked into the distractions.

Not me procrastinating right now on RU-vid haha

Me, watching this on youtube with my homework pushed to the side of my desk: 👁👄👁

such a great tip! time blocking also helps too--scheduling a time you will complete a task so you can't tell yourself "i don't have time"

I have headache and feel unmotivated. I just wanna lay down and sleep 😭

Me: sees the title Huh, cool *Saves to watch later*

Videos on these type of topics should always be to the point and short.

Some of the things I did initially to stop procrastinating and the reasons why. I always left my house and went somewhere else in a public setting; brought headphones or earplugs (which is what I prefer still); grabbed a coffee/tea, put my phone away from my sight (out of sight out of mind really does work), then turned everything off on my laptop that is not work/school related. The headphones/ear plugs cause you to lose one of your senses (if you use earplugs) so it boosts the others causing you to zone into the work you’re looking at. The caffeine in the tea or coffee gives you a dopamine boost so you have a positive outlook towards the work (at least the idea of this works for me). Taking away distraction, including the distraction your own home creates like snacking, tv's, books, literally anything you have at your home is immediately accessible so it's a distraction. A public setting takes away easily distractible things because anything you do or want to do in public, more than likely, costs money. It also makes you feel aware that you have people around you. You brought your laptop or school book to do work, they know that and you know that, so you’re not going to pull up youtube or netflix because that just shows them that your not doing what you should be doing. It's actually a good form of silent peer pressure, even though we all know nobody will bring up that you’re watching youtube instead of doing work, nor do they really care, but it's the thought that you’re not doing what you should be doing in public that causes you to do the work. Next thing you know you come out of the bubble you made 6+ hours later and you got a lot done. I still do this occasionally if I notice I'm procrastinating again.

You can't change your life, unless you change your habits. And if you've got that habit of procrastinating things then trust me you yourself makin' the hell out of your life but no one else. I had this habit of procrastinating it got me during 2011 and I finally realized and able to turn myself up by quitting this habit in August, 2019. You must have to build a strong willpower within yourself and keep igniting that flame inside yours then only you can give a shape to your life. And always remember if you procrastinate things once it becomes a habit, don't let it happen to you like this is really a great mistake which I did but unfortunately with that self confidence and thought of transforming my life I could able to give up that habit. Look yourself in the mirror, it's you only the person who you always wanted to be, just strive hard to put yourself up to the position. God bless y'all ✨🙏

Step 1. Stop watching RU-vid videos.

let's be honest. this "advice" we all know about already. it's simply actually trying to implement it is difficult.

This accent I JUST CANNOT IT’S SO CUTE

Me: **who studies from youtube** ಥ‿ಥ

Why this is in my recommendations exactly when i started RU-vid during study time😂..

Thanks a lot....I was procrastinating the whole day....Thanks for sharing tips with us...

I don't know if this helps anyone but it helped motivate me study when instead of saying "I should be doing this" as a command, I started to think "why should I be doing this?" So it brings be back to the reality of why I wanted to finish in the first place. Could also be something like "Would I be happy if I did this now or later?"

I'm preparing myself to write a entrance exam for med school next year. And I procrastinate a lot. But at the same time I have very strong goal to do that. It sounds contradicting. But I end up procrastinating when the moment comes. I'll try to develop resistance. Because nothing is more important to me than my dream. And seeing your channel is very motivating for me. Thank you.

Your desk gives productivity vibes 💜

my body want to eat everytime

I thought you said how to start procrastinating and I was like oooohhhhhh why? so i clicked on it

I watched that same exact video and that quote was really the only one that stuck with me.

You summarize all the youtube videos about procrastinating into 2 mint 👍

Very true. It's far too easy to fall into the procrastination trap if you don't use techniques to resist distractions. Just putting my phone away when I'm studying helps me

Thank you so much for the advice, I’ll going to use it now!

I think it's not about increasing one's resistance but to prevent procrastination since you're looking for a way / solution to avoid all of those different kinds of distractors. At least I think so.

on top of that, you cant just get rid of one habit and form a new one instantly. so instead of get rid of phone completely, try starting slowly, maybe put it a bit further than usual, and progress a little by little. there are many ways/details of archiving something. learning habit is another thing as well.

Wow this is great advice, im going to follow this! I'll start tomorrow...

Very valuable advice... Gonna make this happen in my life from tomorrow for sure👌
