Yesterday, I had to read a whole book cause I had an assignment this morning. I mean the novel wasn´t that long. Though, of course I ended up dizzy after reading it. Why did I have to go through that you may wonder?. The answer is simple: ¨Procrastination¨. Even though, it was not a prolix writing, it was written in Spanish. That alone lowered my motivation. Nonetheless, we all know that sometimes we have to do things we do not like. Besides, solving a problem such as procrastination, is not exactly of byzantine complexity. In fact I would say that the sooner you finish of with the tasks you like the least, the better you feel. Further. we were taught as kids that if we finished our homework in time, we could enjoy a languid afternoon in the sun. Ergo, why not applying the same principle now?. The immediate reward after breaking the back of a tough project for instance. Of course our prize should be small. What counts, is that we sometimes need incentives to keep us motivated along the way to success. Moreover, it wouldn´t hurt to edify ourselves by attending conferences, reading or whatnot. Needless to say that you need an organized plan to accomplish anything you have in mind. Using analogies also helps. You see, we decant water if we want to make it cooler. What does it tell me?. That...applying metaphors and analogies help us to better figure out how to solve our daily issues. Many times, have I talked about how important it is to be an indomitable individual. That is why it is also crucial not to trivialize our own problems. If we need help, we should get it. Having a Manichean thinking for that matter, seems best. Besides, we have to keep in mind that we don´t want our accomplishments to be evanescent. But rather, we want to be remembered as inspirations for future generations. In order to fulfill that we all need to buck the trend of laziness. We must prove everyone else that they were wrong about generation ¨Z¨. Not only can we reach the apotheosis of our society as much us previous generations could, but we can also do more.
