Welcome! Procrastination Module 3 Slideshow Courtesy of: Danielle Woods FIPSE Coordinator at The Ohio State University
Module 3Procrastination “The Thief of Time”
Introduction to Procrastination • People need help overcoming procrastination. • If you don’t believe this, it will be difficult to change your behavior. • Ex. If you have a weight problem. You first have to admit that you have a problem!
Rationalizations : The “Why?” Of Procrastination • You tend to convince yourself, “it’s not my fault.” • Whose fault is it really? • People who do this tend to say, “Fine! Everything's my fault!” • You are the one who has to control your time!
Real Reasons for Procrastination: The “Why?” Of Procrastination • Lack of self-confidence. • Low frustration tolerance. • Hostility (“Ideal Fairness”).
The Difference! • Main Point: • It is very important that you can differentiate your rationalizations from the real reasons you procrastinate. • This will help you to monitor your behavior and your thought processes, which is necessary to change behavior.
The Big Squeeze – Self-Beliefs • Our behaviors and beliefs are self-perpetuating. • Situation (leads to) Beliefs (leads to) Feelings (leads to) Behavior ( leads back to….).
Little Demon and How it Works • The Pleasure Principle: You want to have fun! • Nagging Self-Doubt: You don’t believe you're good enough. • The Finger of Blame:…So you point to and blame others. • Unmasking the Demon:… But really, it’s you who controls your time!
Main Point (Reiterated) • Differentiating between “rationalizations and “real reasons” affects what you believe, thus affecting everything else.
