Overcoming Procrastination

"Do what you have to do so you can do what you want to do" (Matt Hayes)

1. Plan Out Your Week

Take some time one day a week to make a schedule for the full week to know what has to be done and when you should do it, while also balancing it with free time.

2. Know Yourself

More productive during the morning, day, or night, you should do your work during that time period to achieve the most work done

3. Buzzer Beater Finish

Set a time limit for how long you work on something and get that buzzer beater feel as your assigned time runs out

4. Alternate Assignments

Limit the urge of procrastinating because your assignments are too hard by alternating from a hard assignment to an easy one.

5. Split Big Assignments Up

The bigger the assignment the longer it usually takes. Prevent procrastination by boredom by splitting it up into smaller parts so you feel more confident when finishing each part, rather than thinking of it as a whole

6. Elimination

Get rid of the possible distractions you may have by turning of televisions, laptops, and phones to prevent yourself from being tempted to procrastinate.

7. Face the Truth

It may be the difference of only an A and an A- but procrastination will prevent you from achieving the most and you just have to face the truth that you have to do boring and hard tasks to become better than average
