Psychology "Diligent for a moment." Why does the brain burn out from the start? (With a solution in 5 seconds)

Have you ever been? Promise yourself that today will be diligent, will clear work, will read books...Paul really did it. After five minutes, the mind floated out of focus. He reached for the phone to plow social media.

If you are experiencing a state of "diligence, but the body resists," you can do it for a second. Let me say you are not a worthless lazy person, but it is a natural mechanism of the brain called "burn out from the start."

🧠 Why can we be diligent for "a moment"?

In science, at the beginning of our struggle, the brain will secrete dopamine, or a substance of happiness and expectation, but when the task in front of us becomes difficult, becomes boring, or requires a lot of energy, the instinctive brain will immediately command, "Hurry up, stop! Save energy," and it will pull us to easier pleasures, such as sleeping or playing mobile.

If left like this, we will become endless procrastinators...Let's curl the back of the brain with three temporary diligence techniques!

🚀 1. Shing before the brain thinks of an excuse (The 5-Second Rule).

When you think about doing something, don't let it take too long. Use the 5 - 4 - 3 - 2 - 1 countdown method and get up and do it immediately!

Why does it work? Because it is a face cut before the lazy brain can think of a hundred and eight excuses to make us give up.

🧱 2. The original habit "trailing" technique (Habit Stacking)

Creating new habits is difficult and takes a lot of brain energy to use the "put new things in tow with the old habits we have to do every day."

For example: "After I finish brewing coffee (the old habit), I will turn on the computer, sit down, print the work for 5 minutes immediately (the new habit)." Doing this, the brain will not feel compelled to do something new.

🎁 3. Bribe your brain with a Reward System.

The human brain is addicted to rewards. If you imagine difficult tasks, the brain will not want to do. Try to set shallow rules.

For example: "If you clear the work here for 15 minutes, you will allow yourself to pick up your phone and plow through the funny clip for five minutes."

Once successful and rewarded, the brain will remember, "Well, do this and be happy." The next day, it will work for us more easily.
