TED talk 2: Inside the mind of a master procrastinator.
1.Three keywords I learned
Procrastination: 拖延
(n.) The act of delaying something that must be done, often because it is unpleasant or boring.
Ex.This is no time for procrastination - we need decisive action.
Perplexed: 困惑
(adj.) Confused, because something is difficult to understand or solve.
Ex.The students looked perplexed, so the teacher tried to explain once again.
Gratification: 滿足
(n.) Pleasure or satisfaction.
Ex. Some people expect instant gratification (= to get what they want immediately).
2.Summary
To analyze vividly, a procrastinator's brain is made by three parts. Rational Decision-Maker, Instant Gratification Monkey and Panic Monster. There's no complete non-procrastinator, to start a career or achieve our dreams, we should be a self-starter. No matter there is or isn't a deadline, we should make one of it, in the meantime, know what we 're really procrastinating on.
