认识拖延症的起因

 

As you start to tackle items on your list, payattention to when thoughts of procrastination start to creep into your mind.

 

当你开始按计划处理任务时，要注意什么时候拖延的念头会慢慢爬进你的头脑中。

 

If you find yourself thinking "I don't feel like doing this now" or "I'll have time to work on this later,"then you need to recognize that you are about to procrastinate³.

 

如果你发现自己有“我现在不想做这个”或是“我还有别的时间做这件事”这样的念头，你就要认识到你要开始拖延了。

 

Instead of giving into the urge, force yourself to spend at least a few minutes working on the task.

 

不要顺从自己的心意，最后用几分钟时间草草完成任务。

 

In many cases, you might find that it is easier to complete once you get started.

 

很多时候，你会发现一旦开始动手，其实完成任务比想象得要简单。
