How Do I Stop Procrastinating

HOW TO STOP PROCRASTINATING?

Sounds like you're a little overwhelmed by the work and the pressure it brings. To alleviate some of the pressure and overwhelm you could break things down in little pieces. Little pieces that can be done in 5 or 10 min for example. Doing something for 5-10 minutes is manageable, don't you think? Doing little bits is a lot less stressing than doing it all at once. It's also easier to do in between of the nice things. So see what you can do to break things down in smaller pieces. By doing small bits at a time, you progress. Slowly, yes but also steady and will be less overwhelmed. And you'll have time to do fun stuff as well.

It's also a good idea to schedule bigger projects in advance. That way you know exactly what to do and when so it doesn't get to much and you still have time for other, better, things.

If breaking it down doesn't work then remind yourself that if you don't, life will only suck more. It sucks already enough as it is so just bite the bullet. Now it looks bad because you're grades are bad, but if you can get a grip then you'll see things will improve. If you have a problem doing it on your own then ask a friend to do homework with you. Or maybe join for the time being a study or homework group. It's only for the time being, until your grades are good again so don't feel bad about asking for help if you need it. It only can make things better in the end.

How do I stop procrastinating?

You are right that if you do something for 21 days it will become a habit. Procrastination is a hard habit to undo but you can break it like any other.

Procrastination is often misunderstood to be a problem of time management. But it's not so much a matter of being unable to handle your time as it is a matter of not wanting to face tasks you seem perceive as unpleasant. You probably don't want to study or do your homework because you think it will be worse than it is. Procrastination provides comfort from doing thing you don't want to do.

Best tip for you is to recognize that your are procrastinating and "just start" your tasks! Once you've started you'll find that they're not nearly as unpleasant and you might have thought.

How do I stop procrastinating in college?

I have managed to pull a rabbit out of my hat every semester. I'm a straight A student, but I'm beginning my advanced science courses this semester, and I know that if I keep up my behavior, I will not make it. It seems like I work better under pressure. I've tried to buckle down and do my work early, but I can't. It seems like I can only focus on my work when I'm in a total time crunch. Is this common? Can I overcome this behavior, or is it just part of my nature?

I keep procrastinating on my homework, what should i do to stop procrastinating and to focus more???

First of all, get all the distractions away (TV, iPod, computer, etc.). Next, make a checklist so you can make a plan.
And before you sit down to do your homework, get a snack, so you won't have to get up during homework time (could bring a distraction.
Last, sit in a quiet place, on a non-messy desk with nobody around you.

This works for me. I dealt with the same problem, too.

How do I stop procrastinating my homework?

I am someone who constantly procrastinates homework. I got a laptop for Christmas and use it for homework constantly its very helpful. But i also get distracted with things such as my email, youtube, facebook, aim, and picnik, and yahoo answers of course. Right now as I write this I'm procrastinating my homework. It gets to be so bad that I go to bed around 12-2 am and wake up from 5-5:30 so i barely get any sleep. I've tried turning off my computer but either I end up needing it for homework or I get distracted with my cellphone. My parents have gone to the extent of putting time restictions on my phone but it doesn't work because I've replaced it with even MORE facebook and video chat! I try to stop I really do I just can't help it, I can't get myself to focus on my task. I have looked up many other people cases of procrastination on Yahoo Answers and nothing has worked for me so I've decided to ask it myself. Just to give u some background my homework load if I am completely focused is anywhere between 2 hours to 6 hours a night usually its 3 or 4. Please help me I can't keep on living on such little sleep and so much caffeine to keep me up! I mean my grades arent slipping or anything but my sanity sure is!
