In this case, things that distract you will always appear. Everyone knows that they are enemies of efficiency, but it is quite difficult to control themselves and not be tempted by them.


On the efficiency day, people often hear someone with regrets or regrets, saying, "my willpower is too firm" or "it's bad to be careless for a few minutes."


Undeniable,

Willpower

It will play a large part in resisting interference and temptation (for example, someone just replied to your post, or IM pops up news that interests you), but relying entirely on willpower is obviously not feasible.

Only with some skills, this kind of "resistance" will be more effective. This is the theme of this technique: "interference with small interference".


This method has been used for reference since 1960, a research done by Columbia University in the United States: Marshmallow Tests.

The experiment is to put a Marshmallow on the front of a child about four years old, and tell them that if he can wait for adults to come back, he or she can eat two yuan.


First look at the so-called Marshmallow, and you will know how hard it is for children.


  




This temptation should be more attractive to children than a headline Party News. So most children give up in less than ten seconds, but they also insist on it. The longest lasted for about 20 minutes.


After that, the researchers concluded that these children were able to resist the "big temptation" of cotton candy because they made self interference by finding or creating conditions.

Researchers saw that those who could not eat cotton candy for a long time were kicking the table, singing, counting, or playing with hair to distract themselves (marshmallow).


Now it's your turn: when you want to see the new forum, turn over those boring magazines or steal vegetables, especially if you know that you are not doing well now, but you still need to start with your habitual perseverance, do something more beneficial to do this kind of "self interference", for example, you can:


Phoning

Customer

Communicate the progress of cooperation.


Sort out your task list.


Tidying up the desk.


Or simply stand up and stretch your arms and breathe deeply.


That's the way it is. If children are four years old, we will not make excuses to escape.
