Science news websiteScience ABCAccording to procrastination (to be lost) is involved in the processing of emotions such as unconscious fear / pleasureCerebral limbic system, Involved in the planning of cognitive behavior and adjustment of appropriate social behaviorPrefrontal cortexThe battle caused by the battle, if the cerebral limbic system wins the battle, we will extend the action to be taken today tomorrow. "

In other words, in order not to postpone deadlines afterwards, "cheat" the brain, the prefrontal cortex needs to win. The point here is that "how you imagine what you should do".

psychologist·Neil FioreHis book "The Now HabitAccording to him, those who are not pro clasinators (those who do not postpone it) will image the task as follows.

Walk on a hard plate of 13 feet (about 3.9 meters) in length, 4 inches in thickness (about 10 centimeters), 1 foot in width (about 30 centimeters) I have physical, emotional and emotional abilities necessary to accomplish my task. You can take a step carefully, you can dance, skip, jump over the board. You can do tasks without any problem.



On the other hand, the tasks imaged by the proclinator are as follows.

The task to do is to walk on a hard plate of about 3.9 meters in length, about 10 centimeters in thickness and about 30 centimeters in width as before. I also have the ability. However, this time it is 100 feet (30.4 m) above the ground and a plate is hung between the building and the building. What do you feel when you step on the other side that is the goal of the board's way and step on the task to complete? What are you talking to yourself?



Even though the tasks are the same, people who are not professional clas- terators and professional clas- sinators have different psychology when tasks are ahead. Since professional classinators put emphasis on "completing tasks", it often happens that the first step can not be taken. Therefore, for example, if the task of "cleaning the room" is to be done, it is not the "room that has become perfectly beautiful" when imagining a task, but taking the first step "take dishes for sinks" It should be the act of the light. By this action, the cerebral limbic system will not feel the "unconscious fear" that he felt until then and will be able to create new memories with confidence. In other words, the prefrontal cortex wins.
