30秒提示：你是否花太多的时间去阅读和思考呢?很多人往往把大量的时间花在了阅读和思考上，而没有把阅读后获取的知识和思考的结果应用于生活的实践中去。如何才能把阅读和思考后的经验应用于实践呢?

Don’t just read and think. Work out problems and apply them to reality.

You have a deadline looming. However, instead of doing your work, you are fiddling with miscellaneous things like checking email, social media, watching videos, surfing blogs and forums. You know you should be working, but you just don’t feel like doing anything.

We are all familiar with the procrastination phenomenon. When we procrastinate, we squander away our free time and put off important tasks we should be doing them till it’s too late. And when it is indeed too late, we panic and wish we got started earlier.

The chronic procrastinators I know have spent years of their life looped in this cycle. Delaying, putting off things, slacking, hiding from work, facing work only when it’s unavoidable, then repeating this loop all over again. It’s a bad habit that eats us away and prevents us from achieving greater results in life.
