Lecture #7 - My Method for Defeating Procrastination

I am writing a book! If you to know when it is ready (and maybe win a free copy), submit your email on my website: I won’t spam you or share your email address with anyone. This video lecture is the 7th in a series of lectures for first-year college students, tentatively titled “How to Do Well in College.“ This lecture is about how to overcome procrastination. The first point is that procrastination is not a time management problem. Rather, it is a problem with regulating ones emotions. As a result of this, I use three techniques to combat my own lack of motivation: 1) Rewards 2) Serious Temptation Removal 3) Motivation Harvesting The third of these is is a term of my own invention, and it is the most effective method, at least for me.
