- Everyone struggles with procrastination. It's a part of being human. We often feel stuck, unmotivated, and lazy, and then beat ourselves up when we waste time procrastinating. But the reason most people can't overcome it is because they don't have a proper protocol, they just want a quick fix, it's not always about dopamine. And that's the problem, we can't change our behavior unless we understand it. So in this video, we'll break down how procrastination works, and then share our full procrastination protocol to take control of our life, and stop wasting time.

''Perfectionism=Researching, and analyzing too much It's procrastination'' This was a great explanation of perfectionism.
Thanks for this man
Thank you so much! I fall to this hole many many times..
same, I fall for this a lot.

Step 1) cold shower
Step 2) analyze emotion (experience, effort, energy)
Step 3) get a CLEAR plan, thats way too EASY
Step 4) ONLY FOCUS on the task only.
Step 5) get the task done.
Can't focus on the task ahead? Here's one simple trick: Just focus on the task ahead!

I want to avoid procrastination so I can finally feel that amazing sensation at the end of the day where you feel like you deserve a rest, and you are amazing
"It doesn't matter how perfect your plan is, if you don't use it."
that woke me big time
How I beat procrastination
1. Make a plan
2. Make a schedule
3. Wake up when the sun rises or wake up at an adequate time (6:00 am - 9:00 am is the time you should be waking up)
4. Don't skip meals
5. Drink water
6. Go outside when you feel overwhelmed and get some sunlight and fresh air
7. Don't sleep to late. (I usually try to sleep between 11:00 pm - 12:00am)
8. Exercise. Don't do to much when you exercise. Do something beginner friendly
9. Organize your life.
What can be a beginner friendly exercise... push ups?
@@zeetbhattacharya5395 you can search it up on yt
@@zeetbhattacharya5395 pushups and jogging prolly. Yoga might also do the trick
I want to beat procrastination just because it will help me so much in life! There's nothing better than finishing a hard task and realizing that it wasn't that bad and you just needed to get started. Wish everyone luck on your studies and your life
So tired of being this way. I wanna actually own my life!! Make my own decisions and be accountable for them.
This is by far one of the best and practical videos I’ve seen about overcoming procrastination. I appreciate the fact that he mentioned that procrastination has no cure, it’s a life long battle. That’s the reason such videos help.
Same thing
5-Step Full Procrastination Protocol:
Step 1) 3:39 Clear your mind (and identify the emotion -): cold shower and/or head on a bowl of ice cubes (short term); meditate and exercises (long term);
Step 2) 4:39 Deconstruct the emotion (is it lack of experience/clarity for the task?, is the task too low/high effort?, is your energy level low at the moment?): Think about your current situation to think of prompts to why did that negative emotion appear now? You have the skills and knowledge? Did your friends just invited you to play? Is it fear of judgement/failure?
Step 3) 5:27 Get a CLEAR plan, that's way too EASY you would be STUPID not to do it, even as stupider as create a sentence or even a word. If the reason if low energy level atm, make a clear plan of action for the next day.
Step 4) 7:11 Begin to execute, don't think too hard on the plan, just start. Just get working, even if the negative emotions are not completely gone.
Step 5) 7:56 Celebrate your ability to overcome procrastination (that day).
Thanks a lot
The problem for me atleast is always energy lvl, i dont know how to fix that..
@@bonquva I ain't no expert, but I think people usually dont feel low energy for tasks they enjoy alot, so try to find ways to make it more enjoyable like study with friends, or create funny mnemonics or stories for everything you read, or do something ridiculous for every exercise or chapter you finish, but try not to do everything at once, like a whole subject in one day, take small steps so they dont feel overwhelming. And it also could be your health/sleep schedule, try to sleep more or less, or at a different time like if you sleep at 12am, try to sleep at 10pm and wake up early, switch that, it might help.🫡
thanks a million
Valeu Ana clara ajudou mt!
I hope this video helps me to organize my life😃😃😃
Me 2 😇
😄😄😄
In shaa allah❤
Me too
And?
My school grades have dropped significantly, I used to be all naturally gifted, but now as I'm getting Year 10 and actually have to study, its gotten harder and harder. That's why I want to overcome procrastination. I also get very stressed when things are out of my control, and I want to minimise my stress. Thank you so much for this video!
Small tip: The Getting Started Rule says that action leads to motivation. Not the other way around most of the time. Trust me once you get started it builds momentum, just like running a race.
that is so true, i've done a yt video about motivation, and the first step is always getting started
That was helpful
What I do to beat procastination:
1. Stop following a rigid schedule
2. Break things into small steps
4. Analyze my emotion
5. Have a good health (Mentallt & Physically)
This video is very helpful because it deals with an unspoken problem of our generation, procrastination. It has to be taken seriously for a couple of particular reasons, although the main one, in my opinion, is that it is a symptom of a much dangerous state of emotion, like the ones you mentioned earlier in the video. Great choice of subject and great video. I wish you all the best of luck.
so true i feel that my life is always out of control (just like at my messy life on my vlogs, like I'm just waiting for it to be "normal 😏)
but I've discovered that the beauty of life is how uncontrollable it is
Procrastination is not an unspoken problem. There is VERY VERY MUCH about procrastination on TH-cam.
Why do i want to beat procrastination
1. I want to talk to my crush
2.i want to achieve and enjoy the small things in life
3.to motivate my self that there is still hope outhere for myself
The biggest revelation I had is that there isn’t just one form of procrastination, we all procrastinate in different ways. Just made a video about 5 different types, learned so much making it😁🙌🏼
Wow! As a long-time procrastinator I've watched probably hundreds of videos on this topic (instead of doing my work lol) and this is probably the one that is gonna stay with me for longer. I already made mental notes and adjustments in my mind as I watched instead of passively agreeing/disagreeing on what I heard. The way you present information is hugely accesible, fun, condensed, cutting straight to the point and just what I needed. From a graphic/motion design point of view: also fantastic! Thank you!
Same thoughts as a big procrastinator who also watch videos about this. It felt like I've found the right channel.
I don’t have energy to study for finals because I just finished senior year with straight A’s (not a single B this year) and I don’t have the energy to study for these finals. It’s a lot of effort and energy I have to spend to ace these exams. (But I only need to pass 2 of the exams)
So, my clear and stupid goals for tomorrow are:
1) Wake up around 7am & study
2) Study: practice rewriting the things I need to memorize for the exam.
3) If I still have energy, practice outlining my essay off the top of my head.
4) Praise myself by doing something I enjoy afterwards. (*Very important step*)
7:30 is exactly what I needed to hear. I often get so caught up in my head that I don’t even begin what I need. By taking smaller steps, I can slowly achieve my goal.
With just two months left before my exam, my goal is to achieve an A grade, but my biggest obstacle has always been procrastination. However, my fortunes turned around when I stumbled upon a life-changing video that revealed why I've always fallen short of my goals. With this newfound knowledge, I am now armed with five powerful steps to conquer procrastination and ace my exam with flying colors!
Me too goodluck
Which video was that if I may ask? :D Maybe it can help me too? + Good luck mate!
good luck
i'm about to have my finals too and I am trying not to procrastinate, even doing my yt videos is a bit of a way to procrastinate for me but now exams are my focus :P
@@FurkanKarakus this video "Full Procrastination Protocol"
Thank you so much!!!😭😭🙏🙏 I'm so glad that you finally uploaded this
Just saw your- How to Escape Daydreaming video... I think this is the perfect extension of that one
Honestly, even I struggled with finding the right study techniques on youtube, but the way you describe their problems and give a solution is just on point
I have really improved a lot not just in my studies but overall like having a good mindset and managing emotions. I literally found you guys when I needed you the most!
Thank you once again and please keep on uploading videos like this... they constantly prove to be life-changing
This video is absolutely immaculate. Clear, concise explanation. Expressive editing. Citing sources. Giving examples. This is probably the best video on procrastination out there, so thank you. It will really help me with my exam revision.
you know i watch this video each morning & it simply just saves my day. such quality content you deliver, everything so precise & yet each point you mention is just..so perfectly delivered & easy to absorb. man, i can only imagine how much effort you guys put in every single one of these..and you know what? You both just keep getting better! keep up the great work 😊👍and thank you for Everything!😇
I struggled a lot with my master's thesis, and it took me about three years to finish it. I didn't know how to get myself out of this situation because I hadn't faced problems like this during my time at university. So, I went to a student counseling service, and they advised me to write only one page a day. Even that was too challenging for me, so I decided to write half a page (almost) every day. Of course, my problem was much more profound, but this approach helped me to make progress. Thanks so much for all your videos!
i graduate high school this june and i've been procrastinating like crazy. Because of this video ive realized im scared. School is all i've ever known i've been privileged enough to have support by my family though it hasn't always been easy and i have a lot of trauma school has been one of the stabilities in my life thus far so i don't know what it's like to not have it for more than a few months. Everytime i get on to do school work i get panicked and start overthinking about the future. I'm gonna start in bite sized pieces and dunk my face in ice water lol maybe i can pull myself together and realize graduation is a huge achievement not just something scary. thank you so much for this video it's truly made a difference.
thank you for posting things like this over the last few months it has really helped me get on track with my own work. God bless you!
I have an exam on the 30th of May and I'm going to ace it. Need to stop altering plans every next day and just dive in and finish the task. 🎉
Best Video about procrastination. Most TH-camrs just tell us about some basic ideas while You show us how to actually work with it and make actually Personal efforts.
Thank You
I just recently found your channel and it has been great to watch. Procrastination definitely is something I struggle with daily especially after just starting college, but I wanna be better and am going to utilize everything iv'e learned from this channel. Thanks!
Cajun koi is like a relatable friend who has the same study problems as you ❤.
I really enjoy these videos! Thank you for sharing your experiences and ways to help others. I’ve been trying these steps and although there are days where I fail to follow them, I always jump back on track by either rewatching the videos or following the two day rule. One thing for sure though, I am doing much better than before 🙌🏼
I agree with the organization and thing. I also love how you guys emphasize how sometimes the most productive thing to do is “take a hot shower, get some sleep, and wake up tomorrow morning”
This was just what I needed to hear.. and I usually have trouble finding what I need to hear. So yay Thankyou
I've been working on a project for a very long time now and I'm not able to complete it because of procrastination. This was a great video, specially the 'analyzing why we're procrastinating' part. makes a lot of sense!! hope I can overcome procrastination and get all the things done soon.
I've been suffering with this! Planning on binging your guy's videos, lotta good tips! Struggling here 😭
Really need a dopamine fast and cures for procrastination... it's becoming really bad, to the point I avoid everything and then fail and then it makes it worse.
Learning how to focus is also one of my main problems. Glad your videos address really all these unspoken issues, real problems and how we all relate here/how you engage with us as if we are all family friends!
Guys I love your channel, it's so resourceful. Well done with this 🤝🏽
MEDITATION IS INDEED VERY POWERFUL I AM FROM INDIA 2 YEARS BACK WHEN I WAS GIVING MY 10 GRADE EXAM I USED TO MEDIDATE AND IT GAVE ME SO MUCH POWER AND I LEARNED TO CONTROL MY MIND BUT NOW I HAVENT MEDIDATE FOR A YEAR CAUSE I THOUGHT I HAVE ACHIEVED CONTROL ON MY MIND FOREVER NOW ITS TIME FOR MY ENTRANCE EXAM AND I CANT FOCUS SO NEVER SKIP MEDITATION
I’m currently studying for a National Exam for Medical Residence (USMLE like, but in Mexico), and everyday it’s an endless battle with self-frustration, procrastination and effort.
I really like your tips and videos: They helped me to keep focus.
ánimo amigo! te irá muy bien y te deseo suerte
@@marconylara1272 muchas gracias, colega! Si ya estás dentro, muchas felicidades; si vas a entrar también, mucho éxito!
AYY I'll be writing it in few years , good luck with your journey man
We'll make it happen
To me, a very useful thing was to stablish levels of work. I wouldn't be able to cary three hours sessions of study (my current level), if I haven't started with one hour plans. That way, you can feel proud for your progress in the practice itself, not only with the result. What ends up happening is that I feel reward when I'm able to increase 15 more minutes of work or so, because I feel that I've earned the skill to focus for longer without losing the quality. It's a great way to make your self esteem work in your favor, the way I experience it.
Their videos are extremely helpful. Thanks Cajun koi academy.
Exactly when i needed it. Thanks guys! Kudos!
these are such unique tips and the animations and editing makes it so much better!! AMAZING
This is such a great video! 👏🏼 Thank you! I love how you explain things so clearly and add all of the fun animation. This has been saved to my watch later to refer back when I need it! I’m currently in the process of starting my own channel and these reminders were super helpful! 🙏🏼
Thanks for this video maannn!!! Really needed it!!!
I want to beat procrastination because I want the freedom to go study in another city, earn a lot of money and provide for my family. I want to make cool stuff and understand how the world around me works. I want to fix and understand complicated problems, but I also want to teach. I want to enlighten and share my love for the subject. I want to teach those who want to be taught and I want to be there for them like I wish someone was for me. Aid them with the techniques, the knowledge, the routine, I want to help myself so I can help others.
I am testament to most things he mentioned here. Very well presented, it makes sense to me now. This channel is underrated. This stuff is 100 times more vital than Ali Abdaal's productivity videos.
I have exam tomorrow and watching this video. Am i procrastinating??
I wanna beat procrastination because I'm starting over. I'm just not enjoying what I do, like I used to, for the last couple of years. Dealing with perfectionism can be really hard. I know my potential but right now the most difficult thing is to just get me started with even the smallest activity. Thank you for this video. I'll just have to get on, start small and switch the formula to begin getting closer to my goals.
I have a very important exam on 29th May and I am gonna do well in that! No more procrastination as I deserve much more and I wanna achieve my dreams 💪🏻✨
Bro how you did ur exam.
Honestly, just like any other person, I want to beat procrastination because I feel like I'm wasting my day AND time, but because of this video, I just realized that the cause of this is because of my negative emotions, I have been feeling so low lately that I end up trying to look for comfort and that lead me to procrastination. I wasn't even sure of what I was feeling and I only thought about removing these negative emotions quickly without even trying to understand it but now I realized that in order for me stop I just had to understand and realize that it's normal for me to be like this and that trying to get rid of it will only turn worse for me. Thank you so much for making this video to be honest, if I never found this video I would have never realized why I'm procrastinating and what the cause of it is!
I want to clarify what I can do to help myself, in ways that help me with procrastination. I also like the aspect of small wins that underly the task that really helps me. Thanks for explaining it so well love these vids man I respect your work as I want to grow my channel the same way !
I want to beat procrastination so I can become a good and helpful MedTech while also instilling good values in myself while I’m still young so when I get older I don’t have to be troubled as much. I’m a Grade 11 student and I want to become better because I realized that I lost so much time in my younger high school years having no aim
procrastination for me, feels like a nagging itch that i should listen to but for some reason i’m not. I run into this mainly because of a new career direction, while working my other job, the traveling and studying gets to be overwhelming sometimes and i tend to breakdown often from feeling stressed out
i hope that the knowledge shared in these videos helps in the long run, thank you for your time. new season, new way of thinking!! 💪
I want to beat procrastination so I will never be in this constant slow/down state and prevent myself my resorting to worse and worse things to avoid that feeling, I want to tackle it head on, I hope everyone here also overcomes their procrastination aswell, thanks for the video aswell Cajun Koi really helped me alot.
So that was a fabulous video that helps to remind and summarize how to create behavioral momentum when you lose it. I was thinking the whole video that in my life I must use these methods more when my life is out of alignment with my purpose or when the purpose I have set for my life previously is no longer accurate or complete. Then you pretty much nailed that at the end. If I was still counseling others I would give this video to clients for sure. Thank you for this and now I can’t wait to watch more of your content in the weeks to come.
I want to be the best version of myself ever, it doesnt matter how many distractions and negative feelings are out there that ultimately demotivates u to not take up the opportunity, i would still go for it
Lets be the embodiment of humanity's smartest, realest and strongest ever as a community, should most definitely be a goal haha!
You saved my day man Thank you I subscribed you.👍
i love this video, it’s so helpful and edited so well
i want to beat procrastination because my exams for getting into a college are starting next month and i NEED TO STUDY FOR THOSE EXAMS.i need to prove myself to myself and show myself that i can do something ...
thankyou so much for this video loved it!
Thank you so much! That's so valuable!
With the advent of social media, I noticed that I was constantly distracted by unimportant things: messages, notifications
It's important to learn to stay focused, it's not about productivity, it's about mental health
Great insight! Conquer the mind conquer productivity
This is so helpful because this finally dived into the topic of emotions that we neglect while discussing procrastination . We need to be more open about feelings and emotions because I don't think we can actually achieve something until we find that exact spot where we flip our emotions and become helpless , where we can't control anything .The main problem is our emotions can be shaken by internal and external means and both must be dealt in a different way , I think the most difficult one's are external because at some point we can control ourselves but we can't control others and that's is deeply frustating but all i wanna ask is plz tell me how I stop procastinating internally.
Thank you
Isn't the external and internal means somewhat linked to each other , as in if you're not in the right environment which is a external factor you'll procrastinate
Internally
The simpler solution would obviously be getting out of that environment ie eliminating the external means
The internal mean , is something you can gain control over by using a a bunch of techniques like the cold plunge ,workouts, that helps you stop procrastinating and think straight
But ultimately if the external factors barge in again , it's the same circle if you are not able to deal with external means
That's what I feel
I needed this!!!!! Thank you!!!!
I'm procrastinating my bachelor thesis right now, i absolutely needed this.
Every word you said makes sense
Thankyou i really needed that ✨
This was such an awesome video on procrastination
It’s the best I have seen in a long while
This is the best video on procrastination topic I've ever watched.
people like you is just legends ❤
I legit love your videos. Thank you for these videos. 🤧
Thank you! I really needed this :)
cool video, I needed to hear that! also really nice and smooth editing
as my comment to why I want to beat procrastination ...
Well honestly I feel throughout middle school, high school, and even college I have been following a dream of what I think I want to do with my life or what people have always said "good to do / would make me a lot of money" and have been following a career that I think I may like , but the amount of stress and anxiety that I have gained by getting through and even getting my degree, I second guess if it was actually my passion that I was willing to dedicate my life to and building the skills towards. OR did I even like computer science to begin n with, Maybe becoming this better person that is proactive, studies because he wants to and takes initiative to learn every day about the world and what's going on in life will bring a positive light to my situation and help me grow as a person and even understand that I may actually like computer science and it's not about the money.
One tip that helped me a lot is writing how I felt or what I was thinking at the time!
you won't imaging how many thoughts or how such a small number of thoughts will overcloud your mind and make you worry.
it could just be 3 things that you may branch of into so many other things, but when you write out, it almost becomes clear or gives your mind room to breathe.
just take a deep breath and focus on your thoughts after you write it out.
It can only get better
Thank you so much for your video! You make great contents! I find them very helpful.
bro havent watched the vid yet but i just realized my procrastination is that bad when i chose to add this in my “watch later” playlist together with 1000+ pending videos i havent watched yet 💀
Start with 1 break down huge task to small stupid task make life simple big goals is 1 step at a time
Thank you so much!!!!
Fiire, so well structured, keep up
I have all kinds of Procrastination mentioned in the video but I will try to incorporate these steps in my work. I procrastinate because I have the fear of failure. I want a write CAT exam which is one of the toughest and unpredictable exam for MBA entrance into top business schools. I love learning about business, finance, economics, supply chain, geopolitics but when I sit for studying I have this fear that all these efforts will become worthless if I don't get a good percentile. I think I should stop worrying about the end result and start working on the process. Also I used to put a perfect plan like a 6 month study plan but that is too perfect. If I don't follow or miss the deadline for a day I feel like I am lost. From now on I will just put a 1 week plan or a plan for one chapter and when I finish it I will award myself.
Loved this vídeo . Just watched it before the stuff I need to do and i think it’s going to help me
Thank you for helping me understand more of this
I am glad you found value in our video, rookie!
Are you going to give this a shot, then?
Incredible video. Love that difference between Celebration and reward
I have tried the steps and they worked!! I feel more energetic and productive! Thanks so much for sharing this.😊
Procrastination prevents us from achieving great things. It is necessary to apply the knowledge in organizing in a practical way, focus on the present moment and never stop trying.
Really great video I understood what I had to do. Now let's get to it ! Thank you ! 😊
You guys are truly the best
I love this video appreciate it that you share this knowledge here
☺️ thanks a lot for this video !
wow! I like the way you explain things.
it's resonating to me very much.🥰
thank you!
I am not usually a procrastinator, but as soon as I feel incapable of completing a task to a high standard, I procrastinate. I am a perfectionist, and even though most people would say that is a good thing, it has been my biggest battle.
Yeah, i am like that too. I try to complete my task and even understand all the concepts but when i get to the questions,if i fail to solve 3 or 4 questions consecutively? I stop studying and when it is something i can easily do then i do it.
I am actually impressed by this video
i'm strugling right now, i have many assignments to due and i just watch youtube videos all day and just postpone my work, because i know that i can complete that in just 1 hour, before this i created a timetable and actually followed it and i changed myself but i didn't do the 5th step, so i'm back to being shit, i'm getting headaches, not doing my things, like literally not even showering, i hope this finally helps me!
Great job man
Thank you.. I hope change my life ❤
I want to beat procrastination because i feel like i can achieve more . I feel like i can grow as a person and become the best version of myself. I want to stop getting distracted by small things because those small things tend to lead to large amounts of my time being wasted. In order to feel motivation , i must take action and enjoy what i do. I want to uncover the new me.
You guys help allot, especially when we don't have favourable environment, thanks for making vedios.
the video editing here is amazing bro
procrastination has held me back from reaching my full potential all my life. it comes in the way of me becoming the better version of myself and leaves me feeling like a sore loser. i feel like it has power over me, so here i am trying to change the narrative.
Dude I can watch ur vds more than twice😂😂 super editing and infos as well .. i was in need for this vd ❤
No wonder rational and encouraging thoughts come to our mind when we are showering. We feel the need to make resolute settlements. It almost feels like we're being ourselves momentarily.
Thanks for info. I have a long ways to go and probably need to watch this video a few more times it’s just a lot to take in and don’t know how to my start 😢
Right now, I’m a 14 year old from a town with a population of 30.000. Being not natively American from any side of my parents, I’m trying to get a better life for myself and them.
Right now, I’m on my way to finish musical school with A’s straight, the same thing is with my local school. I take Chinese and English classes to expand my vocabulary and find abilities for myself. But procrastination gets me off track. Learning German by myself began to look enormous, so do the usual studies. I am trying to beat it, studying active recall, active notes etc. I began to dig into self-development at the age of 13, and you are a very important aspect of my journey.
Writing this comment, I hope to feel the drive of the self to keep making progress and develop a better personality.
