¿Qué estrategias ayudan a los estudiantes a superar la procrastinación?

Identifying the underlying source of procrastination is key to overcoming it. Some students avoid homework in specific subjects because they have struggled with it in the past; other students may have difficulty breaking down larger assignments so they will benefit from strategies related to breaking down tasks. For students who need a cue to get started, visual cues or timers may work. Each student has individual needs that require a personal touch.

Time management is essential. However, I would always assess how the student learns by way of understanding who the student is. I suggest understanding the student before offering a solution. You can always provide the skill set of time management, but can the student follow through on their own? Black and Brown students' issues are underly connected to external factors. If you overlook those external factors, you can jeopardize your intent to address a preexisting condition that disrupts the student's progress for academic success. Again, offering solutions before ensuring students are seen can position you as a coach ahead of the game for assisting students with academic, professional, and personal success.

Set Clear Goals: Break tasks into smaller, manageable goals. Prioritize Tasks: Focus on the most important tasks first. Create a Schedule: Use a planner or digital calendar to allocate specific times for study. Eliminate Distractions: Find a quiet, dedicated study space and limit access to social media. Use Timers: Work in short, focused bursts (e.g., Pomodoro Technique) to maintain concentration. Reward Yourself: Set up a reward system for completing tasks. Stay Accountable: Share your goals with a friend or study group to stay on track. These strategies can help students manage their time effectively and stay motivated.

Getting out of the valley of procrastination can be difficult. First, it is essential to understand what are the real barriers-extrinsic or intrinsic-pushing against you causing procrastination. Why would you rather scroll through social media than complete your goals? how is it triggering a behavior? Maybe swapping one behavior for a more positive one can be a step out of this valley. Second, having a system in place rather than just having goals. Third, rethinking your system of tackling the work by rethinking these set goals and ask are they achievable, doable, and does it offer levels of success leading to the ultimate goal? Know this-You are not alone and know you can achieve and create a management mechanism that leads to success.

Creating SMART goals sets you up for success and something to work towards. Rewarding yourself once these are achieved will make this more manageable for you.

Setting SMART goals helps with the initial start into what is attainable. But also set a personal goal not just a work goal. This can be added incentive on making achievable goals and having something fun to achieve as well. Have short term goals as well to help with reevaluating where you are in the process. Lastly, be kind to your self. Sometimes goals are harder than you think. Take the wins that happen and set the next stage goals knowing success is there at the end.

Sometimes your study space can become a place where bad habits kick in as you are so comfortable in this working environment. Changing this designated place once a week like a coffee shop or a park can help your creativity flow through.

Changing locations to include coffee shops, libraries and even chairs or blankets in a park can help with focus and stave off the feeling of dread. If you can find a person that helps you stay on task, this can help your environment as well. Having good company or companionship can help no matter where you are.

Scheduling study breaks through out the day. Go for a walk, go to the gym and remember to eat a balanced diet. Doing something away from your studies in this timeframe can help you achieve your study goals.

Having a accountability buddy is about being accountability to what you say your going to do. Checking in with this person on a weekly basis not only helps others to achieve their goals but yours too.

If you can have a regular study buddy, that helps the best. Otherwise, find someone who will check in with you and they are someone who you feel you can trust with motivation. Make this connection regularly. Infrequent support may not help much.

One key tip to overcoming procrastination is the getting started problem. We often avoid big important things and start small inconsequential things. This is why social media is so easier to get sucked into with a "I'll just take a quick look". I recommend using precisely this language to start a big project. Instead of saying "I will start planning that big and important task", I suggest saying to yourself "I'll just take a quick look". This lowers the inhibition threshold and once you have broken the ice it is easier to get into what you should be doing. It is surprisingly effective!

"Just get started" is daunting. Sometimes it helps to talk to someone about the project or work. This can get the creative juices flowing. While you are sharing or collaborating, start writing or typing. The talking about and writing about your work can help get past procrastinating.

A mudança de pensamentos e crenças que limitam , são verdadeiros obstáculos para dar continuidade a atividades que são importantes ao longo do dia. O autoconhecimento e o autocuidado são fundamentais para celebrar uma nova jornada em direção a abundância pessoal.

We all procrastinate, but its about getting into that right mind frame to do the things you don't want to do. Changing your mindset enables you to think of how you can get on and do these tasks in a more positive way! Once these tasks are complete you will think they weren't that bad after all.
