Are You a Procrastinator?
Following a schedule and doing things on time is extremely important in today’s busy world.
Using time effectively is a valuable skill that everyone must master.
Catching a bus, getting to work or school on time, and even meeting friends requires managing time.
Unfortunately, not everyone is very good at doing this.
Many people are procrastinators; they put off doing things that need to until it’s too late.
We all procrastinate sometimes.
Statistics show that 90percent of university students will often put off studying for a test or writing an important paper until the night before.
Twenty-five percent of university students can be defined as chronic procrastinators.
This more serious form of procrastination can result in a student dropping out of school.
Students who persistently delay doing their assignments get further and further behind in their students.
Before long, they feel completely overwhelmed.
For the chronic procrastinator, often the only way to solve this problem is to quit school.
According to recent students, there are three main reasons that students procrastinate.
First, many have poor time-management skills and often try to do too much in too little time.
In the end, these students often fell overwhelmed and will put off doing many things they need to.
Another reason that students procrastinate is because they feel a subject is boring or because they difficulty concentrating on an assignment.
These students will often avoid doing something because they don’t like it.
A third reason that many students procrastinate is because they are very anxious about doing assignments well enough.
These students often worry that their work will never be as good as it should be and fear failure of any kind.
Unfortunately, trying to do everything perfectly can often cause these students to put off doing any work at all.
Do you recognize any of these signs in yourself?
If so, you may want to do something about your tendency to procrastinate.
The following five types may be helpful.
First, list the things in life that are important to you, them, list the reasons that you are at school or university.
Look at the two lists and see where they match.
Is there something you need to do in order to achieve a life goal?
Second, choose realistic goals for yourself; don’t try to do more than you can.
Decide how hard you can work and what you can do.
Third, once you have identified your goals, list them in order of priority.
If you have three things to do, ask yourself "Which should I do first?"
As you become more aware of what you need to do and when you need to do it, you will feel more in control and will be able to complete tasks ohm time.
Fourth, budget your time wisely.
Create a schedule that allows adequate time for accomplishing a goal; for example, your schedule should give you enough time to study for and pass a test, as well as time to relax.
Finally, take the time to reward yourself.
When you are alone in your apartment or room, tell yourself all the good thing that you are doing to reach your goals.
When you accomplish a goal, do something good for yourself like going to the movies or hanging out with friends.
If you believe that you are a chronic procrastinator, you should try to get help before it is too late.
Talk to a counselor or friend, and discuss the problem.
If you are a mild procrastinator, be sure to keep yourself motivated, but don’t worry too much.
Remember-we all procrastinate at times.
