Once you understand Parkinson’s Law, it’s easy to apply its principles to your own projects, essays, presentations, goals, and more. Play with reassigning deadlines, breaking up your projects and goals into smaller parts, and challenging yourself to get things done faster than you expect.

Thanks for this!
I've been delaying a task for the past 2 months, but after watching your video, I set a timer on my phone for 1 hour and finally I completed it and still got time remaining to write this comment. Haha. Thank you so much, your videos are really making a change in my life. :D
. . . On the other end of the scale . . . I've ended up with "Unavoidable Procrastination" = I solve/fix/sort one problem and then two others appear from nowhere = 64 problems and no (apparent) means of sorting them out.

things that drive them mad.”

Great video!! You're a really helpful channel and I've seen a lot of personal improvement whenever I've followed what you tell in your videos
Just watched the two videos about deep work. And was about to look up Parkinson law, the odds when I got this in the notification. So simple and so strange that one haven't thought of this before...
You've really changed the way I do things and I appreciate it. I'll be sure to spread the word to my mates
Nice comment. I´ll do the same to my friends :)
I like how you made a video about using your time more effectively and you put out your Sunday video earlier than I remember you putting out some of your more recent ones lol great content as always!
Great demonstration of the content; it gets the point across very effectively.
I found it very helpful its an eye opener for me❤
Currently watching this while procrastinating
A great one👍
This is good with many New Years resolutions coming up people want to accomplish a goal by the next year. But what if we set the goal for 6 months?
In my opinion this is one the most important/best videos you've ever made.
I procrastinate because I’m mostly undisciplined. However, I procrastinate assignments because if I finish early, I feel the need to rewrite or rework the project. I continue to evaluate my projects looking for a better solution. I have too many ideas and too many ways to complete assignments.
Merci
Sir Plz Make A Video On How To Study When You Don't Feel Like Studying 🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏
I second this idea- pretty please do :)
@@jennybird2770 I second your second!
Really nice video idea.
If I want to get my work done faster, I must work on giving myself my own personal deadline. I must get into the habit of it.
What happens when your deadline has way past?
Method 1: create artificial deadline 2:05. Method 2: 3:32 break down tasks method 3: 4:05 create a challenging deadline. Complete every task one day ahead of time.
Ah yes, how to beat procrastination: don't procrastinate, do it earlier. Why didn't I think of that!
The problem is, all of these methods do not have repercussions if you don't meet the deadline. The whole point of a deadline is that the repercussions are very severe and create extreme discomfort or even pain. If you just make up something yourself, you know that it is "fake" - hence all the methods here are not addressing the key problem of procrastination
I used to believe this, but friction in too many areas of ones life can cause anxiety and too much anxiety causes paralyzation and manic existentialism; making you question why you're doing what you're doing to the point of madness. There is a lack of balance if you're producing anxiety in 5 different areas of your life; and though you may think you're doing more, you're likely going to stagnate due to excess friction.
Yea but how does he draw such perfect circles?
Watch at 2x. Done.
"Create artificial deadline" *laughing in only being able to work on external motivation*
set your deadline to friday evening instead of sunday night :D
Easier: "Just Do It" or "Just Do Something"
This really only works if you work for yourself, otherwise if you finish the job quicker , your employer will just give you more work to do........true story
Haha absolutely
He doesn’t mention the most important part of this if you don’t work for yourself: don’t tell anyone you’ve finished, and devise a way to work on your personal stuff in the meantime.
This is easier said than done lol. You still need discipline.
This video is a push towards building the discipline, like all of his videos. A hammer only puts nails in wood when you use it.
Just by listening to advice like this you might adopt it eventually because of 'auto-suggestion'. You need to practice it and make a habit out of it.
I found it very helpful its an eye opener for me❤
glad it was helpful 👍
