How to win time with positive procrastination<\/h1>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

Do you sometimes feel like you don`t have time because you`ve got so much to do? Maybe you are (like me) a \u201clast-minute-person\u201d who tends to procrastinate. I`ve learned that this behaviour is a huge time robber. \u00a0<\/p>

This week, I needed to hand in an important article. I had had six weeks to get it done, yet I started writing only four days before my deadline and handed it in right on the final day. Sounds familiar?<\/p>

Instead of just getting something done when we originally plan to do it, we keep postponing it until it is not possible to postpone it any longer. The result is not only stress, but we also feel like the task is taking us much longer than it really does. I felt like my article has taken me six weeks, even though I effectively worked on it for four days.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

\n\t\t\t\t

Procrastinating work is spending time working<\/h2>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t
\n\t\t\t\t
\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t

That`s because while postponing we still have the task on our mind. We aren`t really relaxed, but we think \u201cAww shit, I still need to do this sometime soon!\u201d Spending time procrastinating something is like spending time working on it – just without achievement. In my case I \u201cworked\u201d on my article for six weeks, instead of the four days I`ve spent writing it.<\/p>

If I had done it when I originally had planned it to do, it would have seemed like a simple four-day job, not a six weeks project. Plus, I would have felt like an \u201cachiever\u201d, thinking: \u201cthis could have taken me six weeks, but I managed in four days\u201d. And I would have felt like being very time effective.<\/p>

Writing the article wouldn`t have been much of a hassle \u2013 if I hadn`t made a hassle out of it by dragging it. Plus, I could have gotten a free confidence-boost and a good experience of accomplishment.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

While I kind of liked to be a last-minute-person at school or at university, I now find it very unhealthy for my nerves. We have more time to relax when we don`t spend it on procrastinating. Now I`m not saying to do everything straight away always \u2013 sometimes this isn`t even possible because we need to wait for missing information or simply a free space in our calendar (and we do need plenty of time for relaxing and enjoying after all). But the idea is to schedule tasks and to then do them at the time they are scheduled for \u2013 and not postpone them unless there`s a major reason to do so.<\/p>

Time Manager Dave Crenshaw calls this \u201cpositive procrastination\u201d. Instead of adding a task on our \u201cTo-Do-List\u201d to do it \u201csometime soon<\/em>\u201d, we make an appointment for it in our calendar. And then, here`s the key: \u201cOnce it`s scheduled into your calendar, you have to commit to it.\u201d<\/p>

Doing so, we win time which we then can use to enjoying ourselves while being truly relaxed. \u00a0<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t

Zeit gewinnen mit positiver Aufschieberitis<\/h1>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

Hast du manchmal das Gef\u00fchl, zu hast keine Zeit, weil du zu viel zu tun hast? Vielleicht bist du (wie ich) ein \u201cAuf-den-letzten-Dr\u00fccker\u201c-Typ, der Dinge gerne aufschiebt. Ich habe gelernt, dass das ein riesen Zeitr\u00e4uber ist.<\/p>

Diese Woche musste ich einen wichtigen Artikel einreichen. Ich hatte sechs Wochen Zeit zum Schreiben, aber ich habe erst vier Tage vor meiner Deadline begonnen. Am letzten m\u00f6glichen Tag habe ich den Text eingereicht.<\/p>

Anstatt Aufgaben einfach dann zu machen, wenn wir sie eingeplant haben, schieben wir sie auf die lange Bank, bis das irgendwann nicht mehr m\u00f6glich ist. Das Ergebnis ist nicht nur Stress, sondern wir haben auch das Gef\u00fchl, viel l\u00e4nger an der Sache gearbeitet zu haben als das in Wirklichkeit der Fall ist. Mir ist es so vorgekommen, als h\u00e4tte ich f\u00fcr meinen Artikel sechs Wochen gebraucht, dabei habe ich effektiv ja nur vier Tage lang daran gearbeitet.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

Arbeit aufschieben hei\u00dft Zeit mit Arbeit zu verbringen<\/h2>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t
\n\t\t\t\t
\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t

Das ist deshalb so, weil wir die Aufgabe beim Aufschieben ja immer noch in unserem Kopf haben. Wir sind nicht wirklich entspannt, sondern wir denken \u201eOh shit, ich muss das dringend bald machen.\u201c Zeit damit verbringen, eine Aufgabe aufzuschieben, f\u00fchlt sich an, als ob man gerade an ihr arbeiten w\u00fcrde \u2013 nur, dass man nichts dabei erreicht. In meinem Fall habe ich sechs Wochen an meinem Artikel \u201egearbeitet\u201c, anstatt die vier Tage, die ich daran geschrieben habe.<\/p>

H\u00e4tte ich ihn geschrieben, als ich es urspr\u00fcnglich mal eingeplant habe, h\u00e4tte es sich wie ein Job von vier Tagen angef\u00fchlt, nicht wie ein Sechs-Wochen-Projekt. Au\u00dferdem h\u00e4tte ich mich wie ein \u201cErfolgstyp\u201d gef\u00fchlt und gedacht: Das h\u00e4tte sechs Wochen brauchen k\u00f6nnen, aber ich hab`s in vier Tagen hinbekommen. Und ich w\u00e4re mir sehr effizient vorgekommen.<\/p>

Es w\u00e4re \u00fcberhaupt keine gro\u00dfe Sache gewesen, den Artikel zu schreiben \u2013 h\u00e4tte ich keine gro\u00dfe Sache daraus gemacht, in dem ich sie vor mir hergeschoben habe und sie dadurch immer gr\u00f6\u00dfer geworden ist. Und ich h\u00e4tte ganz umsonst einen Selbstvertrauens-Schub bekommen k\u00f6nnen, noch dazu eine gute Erfahrung.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

W\u00e4hrend der Schul- oder Uni-Zeit mochte ich es noch ganz gern, ein \u201cLast-minute-Typ\u201d zu sein, inzwischen finde ich es sehr ungesund f\u00fcr meine Nerven. Wir haben mehr Zeit, um entspannt zu sein, wenn wir sie nicht mit Aufschieberitis verbringen.<\/p>

Ich sage jetzt nicht, dass wir immer alles gleich machen sollten \u2013 manchmal ist das ja auch gar nicht m\u00f6glich, weil wir noch auf fehlende Infos warten m\u00fcssen, oder auch einfach auf einen freien Platz in unserem Kalender. (Und wir brauchen schlie\u00dflich viel Zeit zum Entspannen und Genie\u00dfen).<\/p>

Die Idee ist die: Wir planen Aufgaben ein und machen sie dann zu der Zeit, zu der sie eingeplant sind \u2013 und verschieben sie nicht, es sei denn es gibt einen wichtigen Grund.<\/p>

Zeit-Manager Dave Crenshaw nennt das \u201cPositive Aufschieberitis\u201c. Anstatt eine Aufgabe auf unsere \u201eTo-Do-Liste\u201c zu schreiben, um sie \u201eirgendwann bald mal\u201c <\/em>zu machen, sollten wir f\u00fcr die Aufgabe einen Termin in unserem Kalender ausmachen. Und dann kommt das Wichtigste: \u201eSobald es in unserem Kalender eingeplant ist, m\u00fcssen wir uns daran halten.\u201c<\/p>

Machen wir das, gewinnen wir Zeit, die wir dann \u2013 wirklich entspannt – mit Genie\u00dfen verbringen k\u00f6nnen.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
