Getting to Now: How to Beat the Procrastination Habit
I am a procrastinator(拖拉者). I always have been. I've tried all sorts of things to beat the habit. Here are some techniques I've been using to try to force myself to get to now:
Set aside blocks of time to do things. When I was talking with my wellness coach earlier this year, she asked me why I didn't exercise more often. “ ,” I said. “Something always comes up.” She wasn’t impressed. “J.D.,” she said, “You have to make time. Make an appointment with yourself to run or to go for a bike ride.” The same principle applies to other things you might procrastinate.
. Often I’ll be sitting on the back porch reading a book, and it will occur to me that some chore needs to be done — mending the fence, for example. “ ,” I tell myself. Wrong! What usually happens is that I forget to write it down, and even if I do, I just look at the list and procrastinate for weeks on end. The best move is to actually do the chore when I think of it. (Assuming, of course, that I have the time at that moment,which I usually do.)
Use a timer to bring you back to reality. Part of the reason I procrastinate is that I'm a daydreamer. . One way to keep on track is to use a timer. I use the Ultrak Jumbo Countdown Timer, but not as often as I should. I set it for 48 minutes. When it goes off, : Am I doing what I'm supposed to be doing?
Do not multitask. I often start many things at once, but I never actually do any of them. In order for me to get something done, I need to focus my attention on it. Trying to do several things at once is a sure way to be sure they'll all be unfinished tomorrow.
A. I’m always lost in thought
B. it brings me back to reality
C. If it comes to mind, then do it
D. I don’t have the time
E. it serves as an instant reality check
F. Do it right away if you are asked to do something
G. I need to write that down so I can remember it

Years ago, if a teenager had some problems in her life, she might go home and write in her diary. Now, a teenager with 11 problems might go onto the Internet and write about them in a blog. In many ways, a diary and a blog are very 12 . So, what makes blogging different from writing in a(an) 13 diary?
The biggest difference is that blogging is much more 14 than a diary. Usually, a teenager treats her diary like a book full of 15 that she does not want to 16 .
It’s interesting that someone who writes in a blog 17 a diary will probably write nearly the same information.
I have a little sister, and sometimes I go online to read her blog. She writes about things like waking up early for swimming practice and not studying enough for her chemistry test. When I was her age, I wrote about the same things, but 18 in my diary. Then, after I had finished writing, I would hide my diary in a secret place because I was 19 that my sister might read it!
The biggest 20 with blogging is that anyone can read what you write. If I was angry with a friend during high school and wrote something 21 about her in my diary, she would never know. 22 , if my sister ever wrote something bad about a friend, that friend
might read her blog and get angry.
There are also 23 to blogging, of course. If I was feeling sad one day and wrote in my diary, “Nobody cares about me,” 24 would know about it. However, if my sister wrote the same sentence in her blog, her best friends would quickly respond and tell her how much they like her. Blogs help people stay in 25 with her friends and to hear what the people around them are doing.
