三、短文逐段翻译
拖延症难题
凯西知道周一就要交作文。可她没有今天动笔,反而一直拖到最后一刻,周日晚上才开始写。显然,一晚根本写不出优质作文,她最终拿到很差的成绩。事后她十分懊悔,责怪自己没有早点动手,还保证下次一定改进,可她依旧旧习难改。
凯西的故事你是否觉得很熟悉?我们很多人都和她一样有拖延的毛病 —— 把重要的事拖到最后一刻才做。我们为什么会拖延?部分研究表明,拖延源于负面情绪,比如恐惧、焦虑。我们害怕做得一塌糊涂,害怕拿到低分,担心自己会失败。于是我们推迟任务,只为逃避这些糟糕的情绪。可悲的是,拖延反而更容易让我们搞砸事情、遭遇失败,继而滋生更多负面情绪,让我们下次更容易继续拖延,形成恶性循环。
解决这个问题的长期办法,是正视并疏导负面情绪。我们要学会原谅自己的失利,接受自己偶尔达不到预期;同时明白,困难的任务未必是坏事。正是在克服困难的过程中,我们才能学习、成长。
那具体该怎么做?这里有几条实用建议。第一,认清一个事实:一旦直面内心的恐惧、立刻动手,恐惧感往往会消散,你甚至会慢慢享受这件事。第二,把大型任务拆解成小块,每一小块设定各自较短的截止时间,一步一步完成。第三,完成一个小阶段就奖励自己:放松一下、做点开心的事,之后再回归学习工作。最后,隔绝诱惑。如果你总爱看电视耽误做事,就去图书馆学习;如果你总跟朋友聊天分心,就独自学习、关掉手机。找一处没有干扰的地方专心做事。
说到底,能否克服拖延,取决于你自己以及你付诸的行动。那你还在等什么?
