Your Procrastination is Bad for You
* Procrastination negatively affects your mental and physical health, leading to depression, stress, and decreased well-being generally

💡 Quick Tip Example 💡
* "Hack your Home Office with Psychological Conditioning and Learned Industriousness" (p. 55)
* If you work at home, you should have a special desk or area that is set aside for your most important kind of work. Only do your most important work there.
* If you do not have the means or space for a dedicated area, you can use a colored lightbulb. 💡 Only turn on that lamp when you are going to do your most important work. The ritual and the stimulus will trigger the conditioning. Eventually, it'll become automatic that when this lamp is on, you do your most important work.
According to the latest "dual-process" theories of human psychology-the self is like an elephant with a monkey on its back. The elephant goes where it wants and the monkey says, "I meant to do that."
Like an addict who wants to quit-but can't-you feel out of control when you procrastinate. The science reported on in this book strongly suggests that strategies which foster automaticity, via habit and ritual rather than utilizing willpower, will be the most effective at preventing procrastination and increasing productivity. Tricking the elephant to going where we want will work better than the monkey fruitlessly pulling on the reigns.
In order to overcome procrastination, you'll need to realize that conscious will is your weakest faculty. Instead, you should foster automaticity by setting up habits that get you started on work with less conscious effort required.
