2. Plan king! When you meet a sad thing, you will set a goal and write a plan, but you will not do it at all.
3. Perfectionism! If you have a low eye, you will always ask yourself to execute it perfectly, but you can't do it.
4. be eager for success! I don't have the patience to let myself step by step, and I always want to eat into a big fat man.
5. snack gourmet! I know that I will drool after watching the broadcast, but I am still keen on eating takeaway and watching delicious food.
6. Cage lovers! Stay up late at night to play mobile phone, stay awake in the morning, and sleep in the cage is the sweetest.

I don't need to say the harm of laziness, and everyone knows it, so how should we correct it?
I used to be recognized as a serious lazy patient by people around me, but now I have become a self-disciplined person and a lifelong learner in everyone's eyes.
how did I do it?
I'll give you eight tricks to cure laziness, which you can not only use yourself, but also learn to teach your children, so that they can develop the quality of diligence and self-discipline from an early age. This is the best parenting gift!

1. Apply willpower to the "blade" and accomplish the most important things when you are most energetic!
The most important things seem dispensable on the surface.
For example, learn to write, read, practice speaking, learn foreign languages, and so on. These things don't have a strong sense of urgency, and it takes a long time to see the effect. If you do it for a few days occasionally, it's hard to get anything.
but it is this kind of thing that needs to be persisted for a long time, which is actually the most important and useful for you.
I suggest that you can observe which time of day you have the strongest willpower and energy, and then use this time to do such important things that need to be accumulated for a long time.
when I first started writing, I would get up every morning, read and write, and then go to work.
Because this time of the morning is the time when my willpower is strongest. If I put it off until the evening, it seems that I have plenty of time, but in fact, after a tiring day, I just want to play, and I have no mind to study at all.

2. Draw a Gantt chart of tasks, and you will be rewarded when you finish it!
Although I have now transformed into a professional writer, I still set goals for myself when I practice writing. As long as I complete the prescribed tasks, I will get some small rewards.
For example, after reading an important but obscure professional book, I will reward myself with a small barbecue.
For example, I will reward myself with a pair of sneakers for how many days I keep writing.
don't set too big a reward. Some small material rewards, because they are close to themselves, can be obtained as long as they work hard, which is very attractive.
For example, if you want to earn money by writing part-time on headline numbers, don't set yourself a goal of earning more than 1, yuan a month in a few days.
Rushing for success will actually put more pressure on yourself, and it is easy to give up halfway.
how to do it?
You can make it a rule to publish two micro-headlines every day, and reward yourself with a durian when the number of fans reaches 1!
I'm not saying that you can't afford durian.
instead, set a little thing that you usually like, which is close to you, which can stimulate your action!
Then draw a Gantt chart. After finishing the task every day, smear it with a colored pen. After watching your usual efforts accumulate a little, you will not be willing to give up, because once you give up, not only the reward will be gone, but also the previous efforts will be in vain.

3. Keep a certain distance from your mobile phone
Playing with your mobile phone is definitely the most time-wasting thing in a day.
originally, you just wanted to have a look, but it is very likely that it will last for an hour or two.
Therefore, we can keep a certain distance from our mobile phones at ordinary times, especially before going to bed and after waking up.
you can put your mobile phone in the living room at this time.
when I go back to my bedroom, I don't have a mobile phone, so I can only read for a while, and then I go to sleep. I won't stay up late for sure.
have a good sleep, and you will be full of energy the next day, so that you can work hard!

4. Try to keep a quiet and undisturbed environment
No one can find an absolutely quiet and undisturbed environment. We can only try our best to do it according to our own situation.
For example, communicate well with your roommate and family, and don't disturb yourself for a certain period of time.
in addition, it is necessary to minimize the interference on the mobile phone. You can put your mobile phone far away, as long as it is not on the desk.
When I write, the door of the study must be closed. There is nothing on the desk except a computer, a note and a pen.
In this way, I can only concentrate on my work, and there is nothing that can distract me wherever my eyes can touch.

5. Don't expect, just enjoy the meaning of the present implementation
When we make efforts, we will instinctively expect the result.
I always feel that this expectation is like a "demon". Once I can't control it, I will go astray. The more I look forward to it, the more I am afraid of failure, and the more I am bound by my hands and fear when I execute it. Once you encounter setbacks, the more you are hit, the harder it is to get up.
so, no matter what efforts you make, don't expect anything!
Of course, not expecting doesn't mean you won't get anything. Do not expect, is to stabilize the mentality, is to better implement.
what we expect is often a material return. If you don't expect it, you will feel unmotivated.
how to solve it? My approach is to find the meaning of the present execution and let myself enjoy it.
Take writing as an example. When I write a book, I will instinctively expect the sales volume and ranking.
this kind of thing cannot be completely controlled by an author. If you indulge yourself in it and want to control everything, you are definitely asking for it. How to do it?
start with the meaning. I wrote a book and shared my methods, experiences, insights and thoughts. Even if only one person read it, even if it inspired him a little, it was successful.
The advantage of pursuing this meaning is that you can control it. As long as you do it, you can feel this sense of gain now, without worrying about being afraid and guessing how much you will get in return.

6. Give yourself a period of slow life every day!
Life needs to slow down and let your brain and mind relax.
set aside a short time every day, without asking yourself or setting goals. Just feel the present and relax yourself.
You can play Lego and puzzle while listening to songs.
you can also take a walk with your family in the community.
You can even lie on the couch and empty yourself in a daze.
you don't have to travel to have a rest. We can do it now.

7. Look for 1 "sunshine" moments every day and cultivate your positive thinking habits.
I was anxious for a while, and my thinking angles were all negative. I was afraid of getting sick, failing, my parents getting old, parting, and everything else.
until one day, I really couldn't stand it anymore and decided to get rid of this bad habit.
how did I do it?
I wake up every day and ask myself to find 1 "sunshine" moments, no matter how big or small, as long as they are positive, positive and grateful.
after finishing every day, draw a small check mark, and accumulate 7 to get a good meal.
in order to complete the task, I am looking for it with enlarged eyes every day.
Grandpa who spread pancakes today gave bigger eggs than usual!
the little brother who delivered the courier today is super nice.
Today's code word work went smoothly, and I came up with a new idea.
I bought a big durian with five rooms and big pieces of meat today. It tastes delicious, and my parents love it ...
The process of searching has made me more sensitive to positive things, and I have put more thoughts on discovering beauty. How can I have time to worry blindly?

8. Use the "+1+N" rule to achieve a small goal every day, and make it a habit.
Anyone who has played the game of eating chicken should know that once out of the circle, he will immediately start to lose blood, and the farther away from the safe area, the faster the blood loss will be. If it is not supplemented in time, it will soon be game over.
Lazy people want to be self-disciplined more than anyone else, but why do they keep losing? The same is true.
The more difficult and intense the task, the greater the consumption of willpower.
If you come up and give yourself a big goal, it's like parachuting yourself to a place far away from the safe zone when you are playing the game of eating chicken, and the blood tank is blank in an instant. No matter how good your equipment and technology are, you can only fall down reluctantly.
it's not that you are naturally lazy, but that you lack the correct willpower management.
a self-disciplined person is not stronger in willpower than you.
The reason why they can go to bed early and get up early, study hard, read and write every day, exercise and run, etc. is that they have formed these behaviors into habits.
once the behavior becomes a habit, the loss of willpower will be very small, just like driving a self-driving car, which can run automatically.
However, you are different. You haven't made it a habit. You started to ask yourself to write 1 words a day. This deliberate behavior will consume a lot of willpower, so you will feel very tired and deliberate, and it is difficult to persist.
what if I do it? Take a long-term view. Your goal is to form good habits, not to ask yourself how many tasks you have to complete every day.
So, at the beginning, you set your goals small enough to minimize the loss of willpower, and then focus on sticking to them every day.
For example, if you stipulate that you should read one article a day, it's too easy to finish it in five minutes, so it's easier to stick to it and do it every day. If you are in good condition, read more articles. If you are in bad condition, just finish reading one article.
Try it. After 3 days, you will find that you have really formed the habit of reading every day.
at that time, it will be much easier for you to improve your daily reading.
Self-discipline is actually not difficult at all. It is difficult because the methods we used in the past are wrong.
in short, remember that the core of self-discipline is habit formation. Minimize the daily tasks, which can reduce the obstacles to action as much as possible. At the first stage, form the habit of action itself, and then improve the intensity a little. At this time, you will find that self-discipline is so simple!
