We examine the motivation equation by Piers Steel
Motivation = (Expectancy * Value) / (Impulsiveness * Delay)
Whereby Motivation is the willingness to do work, essentially the opposite of procrastination.
- Expectancy refers to how how much you expect to succeed at doing the task and thereby getting the anticipated reward.
- Value refers to how much you enjoy doing a task, and how much you’ll enjoy the reward.
- Impulsiveness refers to your tendency to get distracted by other things.
- Delay refers to the time lapse until receiving the anticipated reward
We want to maximize expectancy and value, as they are directly proportional to motivation, and we want to minimize impulsiveness and delay, as they are inversely proportional.

I was not going to the gym even though I wish I would. I made a commitment to go to the gym 3 days a week. If I do not go my best friend holds me accountable to donate $20 to the Trump re-election campaign. (I am NOT a Trump supporter). Needless to say I have not missed the gym once.

    • @NotCoolMan123 if it happens that all of your tasks are urgent and important, do what you can only do for a day. If some of those tasks could take long hours to finish it then so be it, just be focused. Control your mind and feelings as not to get overwhelmed with other tasks because you'll only become afraid and this can heavily affect your performance - worst part could be you'll never finish in time on what your working on. You don't need to finish all those tasks in a day if you can't ready do it, better to work on them one by one. But if your enemy is TIME and all of your tasks are urgent and important then you can't do anything. Your only option is to accept your mistake - let that duedate past, accept the consequence/s, of your mistake then after the "punshment" choose to gather yourself, recall what went wrong then after draw your conclusion.

  • Whenever I start procrastinating, it’s normally because I’ve become bored with the topic, it feels too challenging to accomplish to the standard I expect of myself, or the reward associated with it - a good grade - seems unattainable. To battle this, particularly in anatomy, I turned studying via reading and writing notes into drawing diagrams of the body and connecting ideas; making mind maps to help summarise concepts, and sometimes tables to compare characteristics. The really helpful thing was to change learning modes from passively listening to lecture recordings and taking notes, to actively challenging myself to question what was important from that lecture, and to assess whether I knew the content or not. A friend once told me “don’t waste time studying what you already know - spend it learning what you don’t”. I’m in my third year of university, I can honestly say that it’s changed the way that I perceive work and studying.

  • I'm a horrible procrastinator. I think studying by yourself is more efficient, but what really saved me was study groups. I learn quickly, but had trouble having a disciplined studying schedule during term breaks when there was nothing urgent to do, but you really do need to review the material from the previous semester. Going over the material with a group every day helped me to stay on track and forced me to interact with the subject matter every day whether I wanted to or not. Plus, it got rid of some of the self doubt for me, which was crippling in some of the harder maths subjects (I did computer science, it's more or less a maths degree in the first two years). You have to find people that learn at roughly the same speed. If you see the others are confused and have a hard time as well, you realize you are not too dumb to learn it, the material is simply tough.

  • Procrastination has really hit me hard the last 3 years. I procrastinate on sleep which ruins my sleep schedule, getting the lower recommended sleep required. I procrastinate on my homework by doing things the day it’s due. I wait last minute in everything by leaving the house for work or school last minute rushing, getting there barely on time or a bit late. It’s really taken a toll on my life and now that I’ve opened my eyes to the problem I will slowly work to better myself.

    • Once you reach a certain stage of procrastination, even that won't help. You would feel trapped and helpless as you continue to procrastinate while the world around you burns and withers away, and despite your best efforts to stop, you stop listening to yourself and continues to procrastinate while subsequently pushing away any help by telling them and telling yourself that you've got this and you can handle things on your own and you don't need help, when in reality you've not got this and you know it. The worst part is that your mind starts to double cross you and go against the very goals you set and it finds ways to surround you with more and more distractions, slowly eating away on your productivity and your will, eventually leaving you as a husk of your former self, incapable of doing anything except for the bare minimum within a deadline. Deadlines become meaningless and due to regularly missing deadlines, no one would ever take you for your word as your word has no value anymore, further creating even less of an incentive to finish things within a deadline, hence creating a sort of vicious cycle. You end up wasting all of your time doing meaningless things while the important stuff is on the backburner where it rots. It is pure torture, and I feel like I am very close to reaching that point. For your sake, please don't reach this point in life. (P.S. English isn't mother tongue, so I apologize in advance for any errors you may come across in the wording or the format of this reply) Regards Persivefire

  • Tip: Get into computer solitaire and use it as a reward. Games are under 5 minutes usually and if you enjoy it it can be a huge reward. There's also not much of a temptation to not study since you're A) on the same computer and B) there's no real stakes like there might be on social media to interact or lose progress. I got really into it when I had to do textbook notes. I'd do 1 section of the chapter per day and every page I finished I'd play one game. Got it done in record time and boosted my grades from a C to an A.

  • Absolutely love this video and the tips are great. I am a grad student and it is all online. Every week we have one or two big assignments (usually a paper), 2 discussion questions to thoroughly answer, and we have to reply to our classmates on 3 separate days. The hardest part is doing the big essay because there is a lot of research and writing to do. The biggest motivation for me has been: the sooner I get this done, the sooner I get to do something fun. I always break down writing the essay into smaller parts and this thinking has really helped me finish a task. I love what I am studying and learning (elementary education) but it gets daunting doing a lot of writing, so I have to tell myself that. Try it, it works with trying to work out too :)!

  • I hated to study law, but it's what I chose as a career. I like the practice of it, but the tests were pretty daunting, and I would have loved to go fishing instead of reading the books. What seemed to help for me is to do a warmup before beginning the formal study. I would read a magazine article, part of an enjoyable book, or even the funny pages of a newspaper. This would sort of warm up my eyes, and brain to get into the mode for study. The key would be to find a motivating topic that would make me interested in reading more. I applied this from the idea that before I would begin a hard track run workout, I would usually do a light jog, and stretch beforehand. This made the task of beginning the hard track workout less daunting. The key was making sure that i stopped that warmup task within a set time period such as 10 minutes or so.

The main reason why I tend to procrastinate is because either I feel like the task at hands will take too much time or I don't know where to start... or I just plain don't like it.Breaking down tasks does wonders for me but trying to hack my brain into deadlines or accountability have never been proven to be successful in my case.

  • Several years back I stoped drinking because I learned I was using drinking as a means of coping with stress. In other words my habit of drinking became more stressful than the stress I was inducing from my driven expectations. It took a while (3 months or so) but I finally got use to not drinking.after that my procrastination reduced and that allowed me to explore healthier ways of reward and paved the way to more productive. Cool video, thanks! 👍🥇

  • To get rid or procrastination, play a movie/series/story-based games that you already seen and really loved on a separate monitor while doing your usual tasks. This will keep you entertained even by just listening to it and without needing 100% focus because you already know what will happen next. You can sit back, relax, and do your tasks without needing to look for other forms of entertainment like social media or new movies that you haven't seen before. While the movie is in the boring parts, you can focus more on your tasks, you can resume focus on watching anytime because you already know what happened. When you are tired of your task and needs a break, you can just watch the movie and not reach out to other forms of entertainment that makes you procrastenate more then you can resume your task on the boring parts of the movie.

  • Only two things you will ever need to know to beat your habit of procrastination: 1. You are not lazy don't call yourself that ever. Call yourself what you truly are: WEAK. Yes, that's what you are weak, not lazy. 2. You don't lack motivation, either. You lack courage. Our perceived reality is a play of words. If you could only learn to communicate your problems to yourself in more honest terms you will have the solution readily available. So next time you procrastinate, don't say l am lazy and I lack motivation. Instead, say: I procrastinate cause I am weak and I lack courage. And you will see the difference.
