Probably, every person has found himself in the following situation: you urgently need to start this or that work, but you are lazy.
Actions are postponed until later. As a result, the work cannot be completed on time.
A student fails to hand over his completed thesis to his supervisor at the right moment, an office worker is late in presenting a project to his boss, etc.
How to overcome procrastination? How to force yourself to work and not miss the deadline?
It turns out there is one very interesting psychological trick.
The essence of the "10 minutes" technique
You need to tell yourself the following: “I will do this work for a maximum of 10 minutes. Then I will continue to rest.”
The reception allows you to do, perhaps, the most important thing - get to work.
Then, in many cases, an interesting phenomenon makes itself known: a person, despite the preliminary installation, continues to work for 30 minutes, 1 hour, several hours...
In other words, the following rule is observed: "The main thing is to start. And then the work will be done almost by itself."
