We're in the middle of national lockdown round 3 here in the UK, and it's tough... Motivation is at all-time lows and the temptation to watch another episode, flick through TikTok or... well, do just about anything instead of working or learning is HIGH.
So, I'm hoping this video will give you a bit of a new perspective on 'work' and some practical techniques to stop procrastinating and get s*1t done 💪

Although I'm not a pro in productivity I have some tips which help me: - do NOT get on your phone in the morning - make studying an event (planning) - just do it and dont think too much Thats it. Hope there was something useful for somebody :)

I thoroughly enjoy your content because you talk about techniques that we can practically incorporate into our lives. I'm so tired of people on youtube going over the same old techniques to beat procrastination that aren't even practical, so it's good to see different productivity content on here sometimes. Thank you!

Thank you so so much - I'm so glad you like the practicality of the advice I try to give in my ideas. Implementable techniques are always my priority 😀

I use to study like hours. Get things done. But i know the moment i start to procrastinate, it is going to be hard for me to go back and finish the work. So in order to finish work, just start right away.

Me kinda fed up of almost every comment saying: 'watching this while procrastinating', but triggered by the fact that I am watching this video while procrastinating too... Fed up of myself.

I get you, but also try and be kind to yourself and understand why you're procrastinating... then try to work on solving that :)

Dear Liam, I’ve recently found your channel and I just want to tell you how insanely helpful this and your other videos are. I’m a fifth year italian law student, I’ve worked hard and obtained excellent results so far, however I know so well how much I could still improve. Your videos are showing me the way to do it. Your productive but still non toxic mindset is so great, the fact that you share it will probably be life changing for me. Thank you for that! I wish you all the best for what’s coming next in your life. Matteo

I think you hit the nail on the head for me. Over the last year, I've watched so many videos about procrastination, and I'm mostly doing OK, except that for an entire week every 1-2 months, I'll get into this "mood" where I can't do anything other than scroll endlessly, and it feels awful! However, no one has put the "finishing line" perspective like you have, and I think that was the missing piece. I'm definitely going to apply this in my life from now on! This content is amazing, I just subscribed. I can't wait to see what else you come up with in the future!

I’m the worst procrastinator in the history of procrastination and that sort of stress is never needed. Changing your perception of how you see the work I think is one of the key points you noted on. Video was much appreciated! Keep it up Liam!

It's not that I procrastinate because I don't want to get things done it's that I genuinely don't like the work I am supposed to be doing which makes it 10 times more difficult to get work done.

@liam.porritt 3 жыл бұрын

But the question for me is, I think, how bad is the work you're supposed to be doing, and are you making it out in your head to be worse than it really is? :)
