So accurate 😂😂😂😭😭😭😭

I will try this solution

I like it

It's just really hard to achieve for those who procrastinate since they procrastinate staring at a blank wall too, trust me i know, and i agree as well

Unironically a good solution

This.... I can relate 😢

being a perfectionist is a big cause of procrastination. I found changing my thoughts into smaller bits and more encouraging words quite helpful. As in: I don't have to do it all (re-organize a large bookcase). I can reorganize one shelf. I don't have to do it perfectly. I can make the easy decisions and leave the uncertainty for another time. I don't have to do it all by myself. I can ask for another's opinions, company, or hands-on help.

Very wise insight. This illuminated something for me. Thank you for sharing.

@@Drekromancer well, as it should, as you seem to be paying attention to what Dr. K is saying. I got lucky and watched Dr. K's "Psychiatrist Explains Why You Feel Tired All The Time (No Matter What You Do...)" right before this. Oddly, a side effect of this is that I now fully believe there is part of my mind which has the ability to reach out and imagine life ahead in time, yet is not my normal consciousness, it's not too far under my thoughts, it knows what I know in a way, and it communicates back through bodily feelings. When I was presented with a problematic long term goal it made itself apparent.

Same bro same :(

whats the point of living if thats true lol

⁠@@Bababooey759well, the point of living is entirely subjective, and you’re the one who’s best qualified to determine what it is for yourself. As far as making people love you is concerned, exploring the possibility of loving yourself and being self-sufficient is worthwhile, I believe.

@@mydpRu im not worth loving and im incapable of improving myself to my standards. I try nonetheless, seeing a psychiatrist to see wtf is wrong with me rn lol

@@Bababooey759 why do you think you aren’t worthy of love? How can you be sure that the standards you’re trying to meet are the right ones? How did you determine that something was wrong with you? If you want to play with your perspective for a while, you could seat down, write your responses to the aforementioned questions, and proceed with questioning them until you get to the emotionally charged events that helped you to form these beliefs about yourself. Something fascinating could happen if you persist. I’m sorry, but I don’t think you’re unworthy of love, even though I totally relate to this line of thinking - it still pops up in my head every now and then… Anyways, working with a psychiatrist is a great thing, I hope he or she is a good match for you!

How’s the editing process going?

@@SizzIsNotAHumanBeing Getting there Was just recording something and got this message right as i finished Im confident ill get it ready before Schedule which is nice :)

I love you

Bro wtf have you been studying for 10 years, NASA program ?

​@@bazingapuzzau don't get it bro, he hasn't been studying, he still tryna get started 😭😭😭

Also studying for a long time, but I’m lucky to have a mom who’s supportive on every level. Even so, it’s taken a long time to find genuine motivation after a perfectionist upbringing. It has a lot to do with accepting yourself as you are, which is hard to do when people close to you sabotage such efforts. Keep it up, fam.

@@bazingapuzzaI mean, PhD and post-doc programs do take a long time. Hell, specializations in medicine also take just as long. I think my friend’s dad was finally able to be a spine surgeon at like 30 something years old

​@@bazingapuzza He means that he has been at it for 10 years. This is about procrastination obviously, if you had paid attention.

Then crash

Idk bro just start the day with something physical then comeback studying if that does not work. Say this is easy is all I'm my head then if that doesn't work start 5 minutes then if that does not work way to yourself the pain of not doing something is worse than the pain of doing something so just do it

How do you know the majority of procastinators aren't perfectionists, when the common consensus is that procrastination is a symptom of perfectionism?

@@TheMathias95Huh? What common consensus? You just like pulling bullshit claims out of thin air to “prove” a nonexistent point? Tell me, oh wise one, who came to this “common consensus”. You got a survey of thousands of psychologists and therapists? Maybe a meta-study on several surveys of the general population? Oh…you don’t? So why do you just make up claims with absolutely zero evidence to back them up? You think there is only one single cause of procrastination? You must, since you say there’s a common consensus among…well, you never said who its among, because there isn’t one. Funny how that works.

Dr K is asking a different question here. He's giving his thoughts on the question "What is that external stimulus trying to block?" If you address the underlying issue, you won't need those distractions in the first place.

@@joevero4568let me tell you a story, i read practicing mind by thomas m sterner, atomic habits by james clear and outcome of that I did not follow through my systems and thinking patterns due to distractions about writing my novels,youtube, anime and stuff and then underlying issues(distractions) were addressed first the whole day before studying no matter what, the tangible distractions create non tangible issues hence imo you dont need to go deep into your emotions but cut the source and replace it with deep life(deep work again)

Yeah, that doesn't work for many people. Those game blocks are gonna eat the entire time. When do most people stop eating a pack of chips? When it's empty. Working on separating the gordian knot of feelings and expectations from doing the work, or at least compartmentalizing, is what helped in the long run.

if it were that easy procrastination wouldn't be an issue

Reading a book is well and good, and the solutions there might point you to a solution, but it won't ever be a "better" solution than another. Most people have to try dozens of "solutions" before finding one that clicks. Thanks for your input m8, but don't advertise it as "better", since it just doesn't work that way in this world. There is no better. Thanks though :D

you want to procrastinate?

@@sleepieste no but like?? This ain't gone help

@@doomergirl8782 Solution is think of it as HALP instead?!

​@@doomergirl8782 Nothing is ever going to help with that mindset

there is a lot of different information for a lot of different cases. small pieces will be inapplicable to your situation. often people will hear something wise and latch onto it like a leach. does this help them, I have no idea. for me, finding pieces of applicable information that adheres to me personally out of all of everything in life is what I do. but its not like you should do that, because its not like having any wisdom has helped at all.
