We were taught from childhood that you should not put off until tomorrow what it can be done today. However, procrastinator people (those who like to put it off for later) are not so few, and they, like it turned out to not suffer at all from their habit.
Precisely habits, proved by American scientists of the University Colorado, since procrastination is only a third determined genetically, the rest is upbringing and environmental influences. At the same time, the researchers argue that putting things off for later It has its positive sides. As the Americans found out, procrastinator people have higher intelligence, they can set long-term goals and successfully go towards them without being distracted by current minor tasks.
Moreover, says scientist Daniel Gustavesson, among short-term tasks of such people do not put off until later everything, but less significant matters that do not meet long-term goals. Similar people accurately (intuitively) determine what can be postponed and certainly do it, sometimes annoying others, especially superiors. Flexibility in choosing goals and objectives is one of the most important the merits of such individuals.
Canadian psychologists, in turn, warn that the habit putting off business for later creates an additional consciousness voltage (excess potential), which dramatically reduces energy person, and therefore – and his ability to implement certain tasks. In this case, additional regrets, fears, which makes a person weaker and more nervous.
So, is it worth putting things off for later or not? It turns out to do this, one must be natural born (predisposed genetically) a procrastinator. Such a person does not just put off something for later, he intuitively selects priority tasks and therefore does not create in itself an excess potential. Therefore for starters understand yourself – are you a procrastinator or just a lazy person? ..
