- How To Stop Procrastination
What do you want to do that you keep procrastinating?
goo.gl/X1QoIA
Maybe you’re even putting it off right now by watching this video. Keep it in mind, because by the end of this video - my goal is to get you doing that thing.
Because if you’re like me, you’ve found it comparatively hard to hit the gym, write a thesis, make a sales call, and most recently making these CZcams videos. And comparatively easy to playing video games, browsing reddit, and watching old episodes of Supernanny.
But if you understand why procrastination happens, you’ll realize there are three levers you can use to trick yourself and train your brain to stop procrastinating. So let’s do it.
0:26 Three psychological triggers for procrastination
0:35 Lack of clarity is the first trigger for procrastination, overcome by setting daily deadlines
1:48 Overwhelm is the second trigger for procrastination, overcome by creating Tiny Habits
2:58 Delayed gratification is the third trigger for procrastination, overcome by rewarding yourself immediately after the fact
4:14 An extra procrastination tip to make everything work better

Never been happier to hear that :-)
I see what you did there....
Damn, thats the first thing i did, jebomater
Nicely done.
😂😂😂
Video: how to stop procrastination
Me: hmm...I'll watch it later
I literally did this XD
Literally me right now
this video has been on my "watch later" playlist for 8 months or so. Finally got round to watching it...
Dr. IDontGiveaShit omg this comment made me laugh because its true 😧
Good start.
Don't look at the comments, get out of here!
You got me D:
I'll just check 10 more comments. Wait.. This is not the kind of tiny habit that will help me... k bye
Ok I will go work lol
This comment actually saved me from scrolling down!
shit, you got me!
I'm putting off what I need to be doing to watch this video...
x2
I made my initial comment 40 minutes ago and still haven't watched the video. Could be another 20 minutes before I do so. I am scared that if I watch this video, I will stop procrastinating; though, that would be a good thing.
in my channel there is a summary of this video in two minutes
reeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee
Excuse me as I continue to ignore responsibilities to watch how to stop ignoring my respincibilities
fine you caught me. I'll go do my home work.
...tomorrow
^Hahaha
nah man I got time it's due tomorrow and it's 11 pm right now
haha ikr! like how this guy knows!? Xd
Alexandra De Golier I got an exam to prepare for:(
My first 2 years of high school I had issues of procrastinating homework. I would get home, throw my stuff down, and start either playing games or watching youtube. Now, my junior year, I tell myself that I cannot eat dinner until I finish my homework. So I start my homework now as soon as I get home. I've found myself having lots more time to do whatever it is I want to do. Also, my grades are showing it.
I would be the happiest person to go to sleep on an empty stomach 😂
Wow, that sounds like great advice! I’m going to steal that thanks lol
So much stuff to do
*procrastinates*
Not enough time.
*continues to procrastinate*
I NEED TIME
Story of my university career, I'm a 3rd year student now, and I still save all my work until the last minute! Its time to adopt these steps in the video, gotta create that habit!
Clorox Bleach thats so true for me it's not even funny anymore 😭
@@enigma2555 hey man how're you holding up now? were you able to stop procrastinating? :)
@@serene9532 were YOU able to stop procrastination lol
@@hussain6469 I think I'm still the same! hahah but I think there's some improvement tbh. I used some apps like Lock My Phone and YourHour and reduced time on my phone. I made up some lists of things I need to do, put on some bg lofi music and just start. starting was the hard part for me so I put up a sticky note at my table "a bad start is better than no start". it's a daily struggle but I try :')
LOL! "CZcams is designed to never let you go!" That sounds horrible.
wish my ex was disigned like that
*cries in a corner*
Don´t worry, she probably will do that... with the next guy
come play with us Always learnin', come play with us, for ever.. and ever.. and ever
Same with Facebook.
Between auto-play after the end of videos and videos in the side bar, I definitely agree. If you are lazy or don't have anything planned, it's easy to lose a lot of time to videos
Wow he's videos are great. I should watch another one
Thanks!
lol
Jenny Konttinen XD 😂

Maybe try a grammar video :D
Hey there.
Your channel was recommended by a friend a few months ago. The more I discover, the better it gets. I have gone from a socially awkward being to a confident public speaker. Thank you Charisma on Command:-)
How did you overcome your social anxiety? because I suffer for it and I really want to work around it.
follow this channel's advice. I guarantee it works. you'll do great
deb dash :)
I'm so happy for you!
i know, right?
You, sir. Are a legend.
That's too much! Thanks
Anytime :)
+DeJake A living Legend.
Lol! Don't you think these are not his thoughts? these ideas belong to Tony Robbins. So what's so legendary about this guy ?
The fact that he's making the most helpful videos on the internet...?
Watching this instead of doing homework xD
Fredrik Herbai late to school rn xD
Me too.
*** Adds video to Watch Later ***
Also Known As haha yeah, right now I'm late to school watching CZcams xD
Also Known As * never watches later *
I actually did that yikes
Great channel man :) You seem like an honest guy and it shows that you are personally interested in the things that you talk about. Keep at it!
Arcade shut up!
Heh, maybe he's not, but he's so good at public speaking and charisma that he can create that impression at will. =P
Evija3000
Haha yeah thats what I was thinking when I was writing that comment. But if he is good at public speaking and charisma that might also be a result of being interested in it :D
I was thinking the same
Togam Pertin you shut up too!
You are right. When I started using this technique, it has been a life changer for school. I study on Mondays and Tuesdays, do my activities Wednesday, reply to ppl Thursdays, and work on assignments Friday-Sunday. This has made me so motivated! I always had trouble starting school work and this helps tremendously
Can you do a confidence/charisma video around the character Tyler Durden?
Majesty ooooo good idea
Thanks : ) I hope he sees this
What do you mean?
But nobody comes on this channel to learn how to be a nut case. Go buy some soap♥
Vonda Krakar Love Don't say that about Owen, fuck you.
I left facebook since last week and its been like 5 days since I haven't opened it. I notice significant improvement in my productivity as I only check email and youtube minus Facebook. I also notice my time spent on YT has decreased as well. It seems I start do the task quicker than I have been before. Small change, big effect.
I just did effectively two weeks off mainstream media, alt media and social media, Sort of a _spring clean for the soul_ as it is here in the southern hemisphere.
Other than music and guitar related stuff, there was no social media, no podcasts, and certainly no tv, commercial radio or news papers and I limited CZcams to specific stuff I was trying to achieve.
Major improvement in getting stuff done, and I'm measurablly happier too
you don't have to stop surfing on facebook entirely. It's okay if you don't want to, but don't withold yourself of any kind of joy just to make things done, you will be more efficient, but believe me that will make you unhappy.
The point is to not overdo it and not to entirely cut off things you love to do from your life to stop yourself from procrastination
+Sexy Beast
But Chris said that being off media made him happier.
When I went off it I found that true as well. Getting things done makes you feel better about yourself and not seeing the negativity of the news or the bragging of your acquaintances also has an uplifting effect.
Although I agree that 15-30 mins of facebook or YT won't harm, as long as it has a purpose (like connecting with your friends) and doesn't wind up being destructive.
Evija3000 as i said, if that makes you happier go with that lifestyle.
My point is that you shouldn't intentionally not enjoying something because it's not 'right', even tho you want it badly
Sexy Beast I could argue you. Saying no to something rises will power and can have many benefits. If that joy you mentioned previously can have negative consequences which bring stress and unhappiness, I don't think it's worth it.
I think we both agree that a balance between entertainment and responsibility is the best way in most cases. But there are some cases, like when something has become an addiction, when saying no completely is the better option. Like, if someone has a drinking problem, it's best that they don't drink at all, because one drink could easily lead to many others. For some people, sometimes me including, it's similar with internet entertainment. If you watch one video, you'll likely watch a bunch of others and forget to do something important or waste all evening in one unproductive place. It's easier to not start watching at all. Well, at least that's one reason why some people decide to abandon these things completely for a while.
I get what you mean though, moderation is the best option most of the time :D
Wow, some great points. I needed this. What great videos.… maybe I should just watch one more then.
Glad you dig it!
thank you! i needed to hear this now, i was struggling to get my blog done earlier and have decided to do it on the next day which is basiclly adds no progress at all but just simply procrastinating again until i watched this.
Even though I discovered your channel about 40 minutes ago, you already started to change my life.
I cannot thank you enough for this.
Im procrastinating my life for the last 20 years..
hahahahhaha wow thats a lot
does that mean you're dead?
I didn't wanna click on this video at first because it made me feel bad I was procrastinating studying. :(
thx for the summary charlie..
i just came back to check out the headlines.. nice touch bro!
I know this video is 4 years old but I truly want to thank you! This is the 1st video about procrastinating that actually spoke to me 💜
I vacuumed after watching this video. Felt good.
great!
I'm going to save it to watch it later
😂😂
I fucking love you dude. No one I've ever seen on the internet is as genuine as you when they want to help people. I am sincerely grateful to the point of visible enthusiasm. Thanks again; you're doing a great thing in your life, and I trust it will continue.
Love that, thanks!
Charisma on Command :D
I seriously love your channel. Super inspiring!
I'm procrastinating to go to sleep, and it's 1:00am
Someone help me
For me it's 2:12. If the reason you don't want to sleep is that you're not tired, perhaps you could try a sleep meditation, trust me! It really works! I've never been able to be hypnotised or anything like that and this works for me! Our could even listen to one that's kind of like a story so if you don't want to sleep because it's boring we can make it fun! Alright hoped this helped, I'm gonna sleep now. Oh, and could you reply to this so if I didn't sleep after typing this I'll feel guilty, thus motivating me to sleep now? Thanks.
Its 2:20 for me :(
Is it just me or is Charlie here getting better and better after every video?👌👌great, great job sir!
That's awesome to hear - glad you're loving it!
Yes, I am! and it has been such a big help for the past 4 months
This is the exact thing I needed to hear today!
I'm subscribed to a bunch of different channels on social skills and self-help, but honestly, I think you take the cake as being the best one. You're legitimately helpful and you describe your methods in clear ways that are a lot more relate-able. Other channels, such as Alpha M, are inspiring and give good advice, but I feel like there's a lot of different factors being ignored that you often address. (The analysis videos are A+ as well!)
Thanks and keep it up!
Appreciate the feedback :-)
Thank you for keeping up with YOUR own goals and making weekly videos! I love watching and applying them.
Will definitely keep going :-)
Thanks, really thanks, this is just what i needed.... :)
Thanks! Glad you like it
Really enjoyed this video Charisma. It was engaging and entertaining; Gave me the inspiration to create a video very similar.
Thanks again and the points were spot on!
nice video
I love this, and what you said about setting small, do-able goals is so true! After my first baby, I wanted to get back into the habit of exercising. Forcing myself to go to the gym, or run around outside for even 30 minutes would not have kept me consistent, so I actually set a goal to exercise for 3 minutes a day. For a good long while, 5 minutes was the max I was doing, but I kept it up every single day, because it was so easy. Months later, that stretched to 10 minutes, etc, etc, etc, and these days I love working out. ...Okay and now I'll get off of here to do the other stuff I'm procrastinating!
Awesome work charlie..!!
Thanks again for another great video..!!!
Great help for me...!!!
I thought about writing a smart thank you comment, to show how much I appreciate this video and how much I think it will help me... but ill probably do it later.
But seriously, that's amazing. I'm of to do yoga and math homework!
Kalihman Eitan yoga is for gays
yoga is lame, better do drugs
I don't know why but I love your comment.
I mean you asskirk.
Protip for writers: 500 words a day is very minimal if you're writing a novel. It can be done in 20-60 minutes depending on how motivated you are, but once you hit that threshold, you get into a groove and usually end up wanting to write more.
I like the part about just doing the thing and working out how to do it right as you go along. that's very smart at making sure there is work already being churned out
Most useful video ever done ! I wrote my daily goals for the week and I'm confident it will work ! Big thanks !!!
I'd kinda like to know how to resist the temptation to give up or take your incentive before you've completed the task.
Watch a motivational video.
Hey. Love your work. However I had a question about the example in the third point. Wouldn't it affect the quality of one's work, since they are trying to get done with it ? I mean I understand the concept of schedule of reinforcement (studying Psychology), but have a hard time applying it to my procrastination problem.
I like the idea of getting your work done first and then rewarding yourself, even after achieving only a small goal. It really does build incentive. Signing off now... going to work on my book with a tiny goal of adding at least 5 pages to chapter 2 this afternoon.
Thank you soooo much Charlie!!! This was really helpful. I'll get to work now :)
When you're watching this instead of doing homework
I know what you mean. :D
"Turn off CZcams," It is impossible.
Who else ended up here after watching several videos?
Indeed, I do feel it is impossible to leave this site :0
Wow, perfect timing - I requested this topic a couple of weeks ago! :) Thanks Charlie!
Excellent advice!! Thank you! Habits are everything
He has done zero coding. So, he has only ones to do!
Lol
Pure gold
*add to watch later*
Hey, this is great. I'm in a middle of refurbishment of my house, and all of my projects are on hold so I was "involuntarily" procrastinating with excuse that I'll continue once I finish it all. I fell for the mindset of..."oh there is so much to do to continue my project, there is no possible way I could do it during this phase with contractors hijacking my house." So I was putting it off until I saw your video. It just "razor-sharply" cut through my BS story. I got up, went to my boxes and took books I needed and brought them to my "little piece of heaven" uninhabited with contractors. I also made schedule for next days with a little chunks I CAN do easily during these horribly stressful days. And that's it for tonight. It took me literally 15 minutes. I feel much more powerful, and satisfied. Even the workers do not bother me so much anymore. Thank you so much man!!!
Setting the incentive to come and watch the rest of your videos lol I am now subscribed 🤙🏽 great video
Who else is procrastinating in the comment section after watching this video?
Me 🙋
this is a very good video
Glad you're digging it
Thank you for this video, my friend. It's helpful
I find that if you constantly tell yourself things like "wow I actually GET to hoover today, it's gonna be so fun!" then it makes me want to do it more because that sentence changed a task (hoovering) into a positive activity instead of a chore. Helped me revise and everything, so hope it helps someone else!
Good point! Thanks!
My daily deadline will be at 12 o'clock. Noon or Midnight? Idk, IDK!! I can't decide!
Goal for tommorow: Decide when to make decisions for the next day.
this speaks to me
Oh man! Your profile name...
Charisma on Command XD trying to spread a laugh
Edis313 nice to meet you
Havnt watched this channel for a few months, but instantly motivated upon returning!
omg i love you so much for making this video !!!
reading the comments as I put off what I should be doing.
But that's like the only thing I'm really good at. 😂
This was very excellent advice, thanks!
I find that your videos are so “doable” when followed as instructed. You have the incredible ability to get to the heart of your subjects with clear and concise advice. I teach Business in High School and have shared your material with my students. You do excellent work!
~ Thanks so much! Appreciate the share :-)
I'm way to lazy to finish posting this comme
...
lier
Oh yea yae
Goal: Get off CZcams
DONE!
Ok time for the reward! let's get back on CZcams!
This was one of my favourite vids by you! Awesome presentation man. I like it when you layout your information like you did in this video; Basic and to the point. Keep it up!
This video is great. Simple, practical, easy, well made. I really like it and made notes. It kept me here after skipping many other videos on the topic. I feel like my notes from this will help me out.
Thanks.
DON'T LET YOUR DREAMS BE DREAMS
I procrastinated watching this video😐
Just wanted to say thank you for this great video ( and to the others as well). It really helped me a lot. Glad I discovered this channel!
I'm slowly starting to know more about myself, and I'm slowly getting my confidence back. *Turns off youtube*
love this, love you !
This is one of the most useful of your many terrific videos. I’ve used strategies like these in my career for decades and have recommended them to countless students. They definitely work, especially the “tiny habits” tactic. Thanks for the care and effort you put into these videos. They’re a delight to watch and packed with invaluable suggestions.
I was thinking about this, the video popped up, clicked it, watched it and took notes, wrote this comment and now I'm off getting shit done. Thanks!
I love love these tips! Gosh I needed this thank you!!
Thank you, you are so smart and inspiring. I'm going to get it done!!!
absolutely brilliant video.
Helped an ginormous amount thank you.
Thanks my man :-)
You really achieved your goal with this video and I'm doing good with my work!
Thank you man. I really appreciate it.
Really nice tips concerning CZcams goals, definitely using it for my channel from now on.
Thanks for the impulse! I'm going to finish my things...
Great job (for all the videos)!
Have success with everything you do! :)
Glad you found it useful.
I love this video! It's very informative and interesting, thank you so much for the help.
This video was actually helpful compared to other "procrastination vids" I've seen before. Thank you
Thank you milady!
You are great! Seriously, you are my role model :) it's so pleasant to see someone who really follows his own advices. I feel like I can trust you, and you talk about all the things I'd love to learn. I follow you, sensei :)
Thanks mate really helpful video.
Love your videos, bud! Super concise. You really do a great, great job!
Appreciate the kind words
Hey charlie, man i just wanted you to know that some of your videos on self love and not feeling "good enough" have helped me through a breakup. It was one that lasted a couple years and ended because we wanted different things. I want to let you know that you helped me in immense ways. You're a really good stand up guy from what i can tell. Once again, i appreciate your videos and what you do. From one Nevadan (reno) to another, thank you.
Glad you found it useful. Will definitely work on more!
Thank you, I needed this :)
I completelly love your channel :D
Great tips, I will put them on practice.
Grateful for that!
Thanks a lot!! This actually helped!! I actually started studying for my exam!

Will definitely work on more!

Thank you! This advice helped and worked for me today (tricked myself into more writing than planned) and then it probably will tomorrow too :0) I love your smile by the way
I found you just yesterday and I am already a huge fan. The more videos I watch the more I like you and I wanna be like you! You are an inspiration! Thank you for sharing all of this with us! Aaand yes, right now I am procrastinating so I can watch you lol
I'm flattered and glad you are liking the channel! But I gotta say it...get back to work ;-)
I have listened to you and I have been for the last 4 hours writing a new book, I was postponing it because I felt overwhelmed at the idea of writing something so complex and big, but I followed your advice and I made it tinyl. I came back to say thank you!!!! it helped me a lot
~ Glad it helped Carmen!
I really love your channel. Kepp going!
Thank you. THANK YOU! It really helped.
