giúp mình với [I] It's 5 p.m., and you've just realized that the report you've been putting off is due tomorrow. [II],You sit down to work but find yourself distracted by your phone, YouTube, or even the thought of making,dinner. [III] Although you enjoy cooking, the looming work makes it hard to focus, and suddenly, it's,getting late. You tell yourself you'll tackle it in the morning. [IV]. However, it's important to distinguish,procrastination from responsible time management. Procrastination occurs when we delay a task for no,valid reason, despite knowing that it could lead to negative consequences.,Procrastination is often irrational, yet it stems from our brain trying to protect us. When we realize a,task is due, our brain treats it like a threat. The amygdala, responsible for emotional processing and,identifying threats, releases stress hormones like adrenaline, triggering a fear response. This stress can,overpower the prefrontal cortex, which helps us manage emotions and think long-term. In this state,,avoiding the task seems like the best way to reduce the stress, even if it only creates more problems in the,long run.,This fear response may seem extreme for something as simple as a deadline, but tasks that evoke,negative emotions like dread or insecurity are more likely to be procrastinated. Studies show that students,tend to delay tasks they perceive as challenging or stressful, and the longer they procrastinate, the more,daunting the task appears. Interestingly, procrastinators often report feeling less stressed while,avoiding the task, even though the stress levels rise when they eventually return to it.,The cycle of procrastination can be damaging, contributing to anxiety, depression, and physical,ailments. While many think procrastinators just lack discipline, it's often driven by fear of failure or high,standards. Breaking the cycle requires addressing the emotions that trigger procrastination. Strategies like,breaking tasks into smaller steps, journaling, and cultivating self-compassion can help reduce stress and,improve focus. By addressing the emotional roots of procrastination, we can avoid the long-term harm,caused by constant stress and self-criticism.,Question 25.
