Laziness is the biggest enemy of productivity. Everyone knows her tight grip. Sometimes it is very difficult to overcome laziness and get off the ground towards your dream. Simple tricks will help to overcome laziness. Choose what you like.
Instructions
Step 1
Operating principle"
When you feel a lack of energy, just start working. Get over yourself and just do it. Soon you will notice that you are drawn into the process, and even get a boost of energy from the work itself.
Step 2
The principle of "time pressure"
Set yourself tight deadlines. It's much easier to get started when you know that deadlines are extremely tight.
Step 3
The principle of "urgency"
This principle should become basic in the fight against laziness. We all love to postpone things until tomorrow. As a result, "tomorrow" becomes the busiest day on the calendar. Remember this …
Step 4
The principle of "remuneration"
Come up with a reward that you will receive after completing the work. Going to a cafe, cinema, meeting with friends. Focus on the joys that await you in the end, not the difficulties that must be overcome.
Step 5
The principle of "dividing the elephant"
Break big things into pieces. It is difficult both physically and mentally to do a big job at once. Think about what parts you can break the task into, and complete it in stages.
Step 6
The principle of "priority"
A person is so arranged that he is ready to find any routine work just to do nothing. Eat, wash the dishes, check your mail, watch the news … Agree, this also needs to be done … But these tasks should be given free time and only after the important work has been done. This means that from the entire list of tasks we choose what needs to be done in the first place, and we either postpone the routine work or delegate it.
Step 7
Doing nothing
When laziness is overwhelming and you don't want to do anything, give yourself the opportunity to do nothing. In the literal sense … NOTHING … stand in the middle of the room and just stand there, or sit down … But at the same time it is IMPORTANT NOT TO DO anything: do not watch TV, do not leaf through a magazine. Believe me, in a few minutes you will get very tired of it, and there will be a desire to do something.
Step 8
The principle of "goal setting"
Sometimes it is enough to formulate a goal (what you want to do), and immediately there is a desire to quickly get the job done. It is important that the goal is simple, achievable, and understandable.
- What is your goal: to create a website about violets?
“It’s disgusting because it’s too time consuming.
Try to puzzle yourself differently: think over the site menu about violets or choose a site template … It's already more interesting and easier.
Step 9
The principle of "intelligent activity"
Each of us has our own rhythm of activity formed over the years. Someone has maximum efficiency in the morning, someone accelerates in the evening. If you take into account these hours of activity in the process of work (and they are individual), then you can achieve more with the least loss. Do the most difficult work during the period of maximum activity of your body.
Step 10
The principle of "alternation"
It is difficult to do monotonous work for hours. Try to alternate work: alternate mental work with physical work and vice versa, alternate work with rest periods. This will allow you to avoid fatigue for longer.
