    Procrastination tackling list :-
    1. Eat that elephant -
    • Divide that task into segments.
    • Reward yourself every time for doing each segment.
    2. Go for the goblins -
    • Take up the most enjoyable part of your task first.
    3. Ignore the sirens' song-
    • Do away with temptations like facebook , net or other factors so that you focus on the task at hand.

      Rewarding isnt a that good idea if you cant control yourself.
      Like ok you did the first 10 question and there are 100, you will be liek ok a 5 min break but no, it breaks the whole chain, youll be like, eh a lil more, and then when it be 7 or 8 mins, you will be like, eh lets wait 10, and then its like 17 you be like, whatever i will take a 20 min break and you end up wasting an hour. So take rewards but like a very small, like 10 sec or at the most a minute.

At first I went with a 1h30min break playing video games or drawing for every 1 hour of studying as a 30 minute break was way too short for me back then. After a while the break decreased down to 20 minutes with a 1 day break per week. Thanks a lot wellcast for creating this video for us master procrastinators.

    I want to stop procrastinating!!! Every time I realize that it's getting dark, I always regret procrastinating and then blame myself which is bad for my mental health. Afterwards, I'd overwork myself and push myself to finish everything. I'd sleep until 4am and my parents would get angry.
    Then one day, I started to do my homework pretty early probably like 10 days before deadlines.. I had this thought I could focus on my studies for the exam after doing all my projects! I never felt so productive doing 4 heavy homework a day in my life. But of course, now im procrastinating again..

      What i could do in three executive years with three trials, i did in just 22 days in my fourth trial,when i stopped procrastinating and i fealt the doom that i'm going to ruin my whole life!!
      Don't procrastinate and try to love what you do
      Whenever you feel a distraction
      Talk to yourself and tell yourself i must do this no distractions anymore
      We are here on duty and we will attain it
      Don't evade your duty
      Don't watch those silly youtube videos
      Don't surf shitty posts on facebook
      Don't go out with your friends which you could do when you're done
      Have priorities in your life
      You only live once!
      Hard work pays off
      Good luck to all of you

I was always a procrastinator, at school I lied to my teachers giving them an excuse on why I didn't turn in some project or homework. I end up giving it later on after so much stress for no reason. And yet I can't seem to learn from my mistakes. I keep procrastinating like crazy. And the worse part of this is that I don't want to procrastinate but I still do it. And I can't find anything to help me because I end up procrastinating no matter what. I really need help im throwing away my future and my health. I'm 15 years old btw

      Louise, I also suffered from chronic procrastination and lack of willpower/discipline, wasting time online and not doing my work. What really helped me is doing tasks that take less than 10 minutes straight away and applying procrastination bulldozer method which was a complete life changer for me. Hope you can also take control of your life and become the person you always wanted to be.
