@@JaysonT1 there is something about his pictures that, to me, with all due respect to Picasso, seem like merely whipping out an example of some new technique he stumbled upon or saw in an ancient cave... it doesn't hook me in, it's like just technical ideas for other artists' to put their souls into - because he didn't put that soul into it. i always felt that. maybe that is unfair to him, but that impression of mine has endured the test of time.

I think procrastination comes from rejecting the task in a way. I've noticed that when I procrastinate, it is usually because the task is rejected by my inner me. The point is that when I engage in a task that I feel is a part of my soul somehow, I am entering the flow state and my suffering and worries go away. My whole life I have been trying to find acceptance from others. I tried to always perform well at school and impress my friends. However, I felt that it is not what I want so I started looking deeper into myself and found out that all I want is to be outside exploring. It was some kind of realization or something. Well, today I go outside everyday and always find something new to explore. I just feel that it is what I want from life because I realized that it is my nature and I sort of tried to silence it with all this human "values". The point I am trying to make is that everyone should stop for a second to think what they truly want. The happiness is usually closer than we think it is :)

“You see, Momo,' he [Beppo Roadsweeper] told her one day, 'it's like this. Sometimes, when you've a very long street ahead of you, you think how terribly long it is and feel sure you'll never get it swept.' He gazed silently into space before continuing. 'And then you start to hurry,' he went on. 'You work faster and faster, and every time you look up there seems to be just as much left to sweep as before, and you try even harder, and you panic, and in the end you're out of breath and have to stop - and still the street stretches away in front of you. That's not the way to do it.' He pondered a while. Then he said, 'You must never think of the whole street at once, understand? You must only concentrate on the next step, the next breath, the next stroke of the broom, and the next, and the next. Nothing else.' Again he paused for thought before adding, 'That way you enjoy your work, which is important, because then you make a good job of it. And that's how it ought to be.' There was another long silence. At last he went on, 'And all at once, before you know it, you find you've swept the whole street clean, bit by bit. What's more, you aren't out of breath.' He nodded to himself. 'That's important, too,' he concluded.” Momo, by Michael Ende

Part of the reason we procrastinate is because the task at hand seems too daunting. Create a timeline/schedule. Set a deadline. Get rid of distractions. Time yourself. Take a break. Use incentives.

Other times, I face an unbearable situation. I begin thinking ‘It won't work anyway.’ ‘They will all hate me.’ ‘I will only be humiliated.’ Then I think about the situations I have been avoiding. Meeting with people that make me feel uncomfortable. Work that stresses me out. Things I have been procrastinating for a while. Try to identify the actions that you have been resisting. It can be the things on your to-do list that you have been delaying for days, things you haven’t even started because you think there is still some time left,, or things that you have been putting off to do when in a better condition. Feel the resistance to these actions with your body, not with your thoughts, and relax your tensions. Once you habituate relaxation, you will see the following changes: Before, your string of thoughts and actions would have been 'I need to do this' -> Not actually doing it -> 'I really need to do this' -> Feeling stronger resistance -> 'I need to do this no matter what' -> Feeling self-remorse But through relaxation, your action patterns will change as the following: 'I should do this' -> Not actually doing it -> Relaxation -> Feeling lower resistance In such a way, you break away from the pattern of increasing your level of resistance, and create an opportunity to at least begin the work you need to do.

to summerize : • take a big task • subdivide that task into multiple microtasks • do just one microtask • don't think about results, like ever! just do one microtask and everthing will flow effortlessely • you will be miserable and agonised if you're focusing on: "agh, when can I complete this so that I'm free from it?" •just do the above and remember it's just a task man, be cool this might be helpful for you : "This means we should create an overview and structure to lay over the task, making it insightful and workable. Thus, we could harness the power of compartmentalizing a task. and if neccessery: to the extreme. If the prospect of one task is too much, then we could subdivide that task into microtasks and plan to do just one microtask. A journey of a thousand miles starts with a single step. So even if we only finish one percent of the task, we have already managed to achieve more than when we postpone, paradoxically, when we finish just one microtask, we do not only replenish our self-confidence; we most likely get hungry for more as well, because we got caught up in the joy of working. By planning, discipline, and copartmentalizing big tasks into small, digestable pieces, we can protect ourselves from the misery called: procrastination. Step by step, and without worrying about results, or being crushed by the unbearable weight an impossible assignment, we just focus on finishing small parts of the whole, one by one. And when today's work is done, we don't fall back into the trap of unneccessery future projections; we simply plan tomorrows' tasks and rest. As lao tzu wrote: do your work, then take a step back.

I scrolled on social media and watched countless videos almost mindlessly, letting time go by. That brings on a slew of shame and more doubt and anxiety, I hold myself to these half-thought expectations because I am afraid or was unable to address the real problem.

This video leaves a ton of important questions uanswered. Such as What is the difference between a task being procrastination and work? Can you really say that all procrastination is effortless and instantly gratifying (wouldnt say reading an interesting book or playing games like Dark Souls perfectly fit this description) What is the difference between short and long term gratificaiton, besides the intervals between it? Can all work be meaningful or does it need to have a personal meaning / be authentic? Why should meditating on death make me want to live for the future, instead of maximizing pleasure now? Couldnt the dread of performing a task simply come from it being meaningles to the self, and essentially a waste of time? You always choose to do one thing rather than another, so isnt everything procrastination in relation to all other potential action? What does it mean to "get somewhere" in the long term and why is this desirable? Obviously there are more unanswered questions, and not all questions should necessarily be answered in one video. However, the scope of this video was how to stop procrastinating, and this honestly seems a meaninfles goal, unless you first specify "why stop procrastinating" and "what is procrastination?"

I have just procrastinated for 13 minutes by watching the video. HAHA 😂✌🏽As they say, time flows differently for those who want to accomplish. But there were times that I wanted to stop/postpone/procrastinate because I might thought that there’s no point in accomplishing something- or I had created the illusion that there maybe some other time to do that thing, well in fact there’s none. In this video, I have learned that time is made to accomplish. The present is the only cash we have and we should spend it wisely- the present is the only thing we could control (the past is an expired check while the future is promissory note). And as stated lately, momento mori. While we’re still alive and have the time to do the most important things for us, there should have been no choice but to accomplish it. Godspeed, everyone! 🙏🏽💓

If we're procrastinating, maybe we just have too much on our plate, we're trying to do the wrong things, or our motivation isn't right, i.e. we're trying to impress people. Maybe we should stop being busyholics, as Pete Walker says in "The Tao of Fully Feeling", one of the most amazing books I've ever read. Why do we have to "accomplish" anything in life? Why can't we just live? Too many people are grinding and hustling instead of living.

I agree to a certain degree, but there are times when I have put something off, procrastinated, or waited something out and a situation has righted itself or a better opportunity became available. Sometimes it is advantageous to wait a little bit.

The only thing I don't quite agree with is the Memento Morì: although it is technically true that we only have this life to do things, the pressure of time on which the exercise is based in its essence can create anxiety in my opinion. And even make you become an obsessed productive machine which of course makes your life miserable. Produce but with balance and have time to enjoy life as well. Procrastinating is no good but forcing productivity is also bad. Don't force!

I agree friend! But I think Memento Mori its not only about doing your "job" or "responsibilities", but it's more about making each moment count in any area of your life, relationships, career, emotional, intellectual, etc, and being able to choose the most fulfilling action that is born from your inspiration, instead of going for the short term pleasures that are most often done from a place of fear and procrastination! Memento Mori its more of an inspirational ideology of making every present moment (which is literally the only thing that exists) count with fulfillment, when you start to feel anxiety from Memento Mori it means that you have fallen into the trap of thinking you have to force things to make it count as you said! At least in my opinion haha

@@ji1603 Agreed, although it happened to me that I was trying get as much out of the moment as possible (without the Memento Mori thing, but the idea is the same) and every task felt like a burden, and when I say task I mean things I wanted to do. I couldn't enjoy the things anymore because they became like tasks so that I could live fully the moment. The call of doing to live more fully is in itself a mental call, mind in action which automatically generates expectancy and anxiety in the end. I feel that it would be better to just take it easy, do it with nothing much in mind and enjoy the process which will inevitably induce you to do more. And if you happen sometimes to not feeling like doing the things you set for yourself, that's fine. Just take a day off. In a practical way I just use enhanced awareness from meditation to catch myself when my mind is just being lazy and fearful and focus more in the moment letting go of the thoughts and do the task. But if you FEEL (and not think) that you need a break, so be it. Relax, have fun.

@@albertonovati8033 As many people, as many right choices. I believe it’s not possible to coin one ‘right’ and universal approach. I believe in doing things not only thinking about them and postponing. But I also know that at times I simply need to do literally nothing. Just exist. Stay in the moment. Contemplate. After that my energy to work is multiplied and I am able to be even more productive. Anyone else has the same?

I feel the act of procrastination stops if you have a mentor or someone who would instruct and keeps an eye on you so you complete your tasks. Like the way celebrities get successful and give their best everyday and we keep wondering how are they able to do this and keep watching them grow, its because they are not on their own they have a body around them who make them keep up with their goal and challenge them and appreciation makes them grow more

I see around me people that don’t procrastinate but are always unhappy ... no way. They continue kept moving and changing things but they are always unsatisfied. So ... I do my things everyday try improve myself but I prefer appreciate what I have in my life than searching continually new situation. Sometimes change is not so good
