5個(gè)小建議讓你告別拖延癥(雙語(yǔ))
摘要:大多數(shù)學(xué)生和拖延癥的關(guān)系可謂愛(ài)恨交織,纏綿悱惻。我們花樣迭出地讓自己享受稍縱即逝的快樂(lè),舒緩壓力,卻也讓任務(wù)漸漸堆積。死線(xiàn)將至,逝去的時(shí)光成了不可挽回的遺憾??茨氵@么辛苦,小編特地奉上5個(gè)小建議,讓你告別“拖延癥”這種沉疴舊疾。
SET GOALS
制定目標(biāo)
Students often procrastinate because they think that they can put off the work for a while and enjoy their time at the moment. This thought tends to backfire, though, when the deadline becomes one day away and the essay has yet to be started. In order to stay on track, you should constantly set and update goals. It can be beneficial to mark all deadlines in a planner and think about how much time you need to meet them all. Update your plan for the upcoming two weeks so that you do not get overwhelmed, and continue to update as other assignments and events arise. Additionally, make a daily schedule in order to reach necessary goals before going to bed.
拖延的折翼天使們總想著能把工作暫時(shí)放一放,及時(shí)行樂(lè)。但常常事與愿違,當(dāng)明天就是死線(xiàn)的時(shí)候,你的論文還一筆沒(méi)動(dòng)呢!為了一切按計(jì)劃進(jìn)行,你應(yīng)該不斷制定并更新自己的目標(biāo)。最好是能在計(jì)劃表上標(biāo)出所有的截止日期,想清楚完成每項(xiàng)任務(wù)所需的時(shí)間。要養(yǎng)成習(xí)慣,更新未來(lái)兩周的計(jì)劃,及時(shí)跟進(jìn)各項(xiàng)事宜的進(jìn)展,讓日子有條不紊。另外,做好每日計(jì)劃,今日事今日畢。
REWARD YOURSELF
獎(jiǎng)賞自己
It can become extremely difficult to work for hours straight in order to finish school work. In order to keep productivity and sanity levels up, set breaks at the end of a period of time or once you finish a section of your work so that you can reward yourself with some deserved, scheduled, and controlled procrastination-like activities; have a coffee with a friend, cook, or watch an episode of a television show. Breaks like these are proven to increase productivity and keep you focused, and they will make the process of studying much more bearable!
連天累日的埋頭苦讀真是件難熬的事。為了保持高效,維持清醒,“課間”休息和任務(wù)完成后的放松是必須的,你可以做一些有意義、有計(jì)劃、能把持住的“疑似拖延”活動(dòng);和朋友喝杯咖啡,做點(diǎn)美味佳肴或者看一集電視劇。這樣的小憩能提高效率,增強(qiáng)你的注意力,讓你在無(wú)涯的學(xué)海里泛起蕩漾的小舟!
REMIND YOURSELF OF WHAT YOU’RE DOING
提醒自己要?jiǎng)?wù)第一
Sometimes you may begin to think that the reading that you are doing, the assignment that you are writing, or the lab that you are performing do not pertain to what you ultimately want to do. You may consider some work or a class pointless and not useful to your further studies. However, when these thoughts arise and you think that getting a pint is a better idea than getting a good grade, remind yourself what the ultimate goal of your schooling is. Remind yourself why you wanted to go to school and take this program in the first place. Evaluate your priorities in a serious manner and you may understand why you should focus on completing your work and postpone the pint until the weekend.
有時(shí)你會(huì)覺(jué)得自己讀的文章,寫(xiě)的作業(yè)或做的實(shí)驗(yàn)和自己的最終目標(biāo)關(guān)系不大。你可能覺(jué)得有些課,有的作業(yè)對(duì)深造并無(wú)裨益。然而,當(dāng)這些想法來(lái)臨,當(dāng)你覺(jué)得喝一杯比做學(xué)霸更可行時(shí),請(qǐng)?zhí)嵝炎约簛?lái)這上學(xué)的目的是什么,當(dāng)初為何來(lái)這,為何讀這個(gè)專(zhuān)業(yè)。嚴(yán)肅認(rèn)真地分析目前的要?jiǎng)?wù),你就明白為何要專(zhuān)注學(xué)業(yè),那些“喝一杯”的事,還是推到周末吧。
TURN OFF THE INTERNET
斷網(wǎng)
Some of the most common distractions are those found on the internet – social media sites, websites with listicles, and videos. (Perhaps you even use KanDongSee to procrastinate…) If you do not need the internet to do your work, turn it off so that you are not receiving notifications while completing your work, and you are not as tempted to search for sites with quizzes that determine the type of bread that you are. The same goes for your cell phone; you can take a break from being connected to the cyber world in order to do your school work. If you feel the need to check messages and websites often, set times when you will allow yourself to do so rather than constantly staying connected.
互聯(lián)網(wǎng)里盤(pán)踞著最常見(jiàn)的誘惑——社交網(wǎng)站,掛著listicles(有趣的圖、文、視頻,類(lèi)似某些豆瓣小組)的網(wǎng)頁(yè)以及視頻。(或許“看東西”也能用來(lái)消磨時(shí)光……)如果不是非要上網(wǎng)才能學(xué)習(xí),趕緊斷網(wǎng)吧,這樣就不會(huì)被新通知打擾,不會(huì)禁不住做一些“類(lèi)型斷定” 的小測(cè)驗(yàn)。對(duì)待電話(huà)也是如此;給自己一段清靜的時(shí)光,抽離虛擬世界,專(zhuān)注于功課。如果有必要經(jīng)常查看信息或網(wǎng)站,定好查看節(jié)點(diǎn),不要在網(wǎng)上浪費(fèi)時(shí)間。
HAVE SOMETHING TO LOOK FORWARD TO
對(duì)生活有所期待
Being productive for all hours of every day does not work – you do need breaks, and as a student you are entitled to have a lot of fun. So, in order to balance productivity and amusement, plan times to go out with friends or do something relaxing to complement your school work. Ideally, social and relaxation plans should be made for after a significant portion of work is complete. This way, while you are working, you can keep in mind that once you are finished your work you can go out and not worry about your assignments.
期待自己像永動(dòng)機(jī)一樣連軸轉(zhuǎn)實(shí)在不現(xiàn)實(shí)——你需要休息,正青春的你還有大好人生用來(lái)享受。所以,要找到效率和消遣的平衡,在學(xué)習(xí)之余定期和朋友小聚,做點(diǎn)放松身心的事也很是愜意。理想情況下,社交和放松計(jì)劃應(yīng)該在大部頭的學(xué)習(xí)任務(wù)完成之后。這樣,工作的時(shí)候你就有了盼頭,知道工作完成后你能好好玩一場(chǎng),不用擔(dān)心作業(yè)的事啦。
