T1.E7. La procrastinación y el desafío de avanzar
En este capítulo exploramos el fenómeno de la procrastinación, ese hábito tan común de postergar tareas importantes a favor de actividades más placenteras pero menos relevantes.

Profundizamos en cómo el miedo al fracaso, el perfeccionismo o la sobrecarga emocional pueden llevarnos a este patrón, generando un círculo vicioso de malestar, estrés y baja autoestima.Más allá de...

People often think of procrastination as a time management problem, but studies show that it's actually about something much different - avoiding uncomfortable emotions. In 2013, procrastination researchers found that people procrastinate to regulate their emotions in the short term and let their “future selves” deal with the consequences, somehow believing that their future selves will be able to handle it better. Despite the fact that putting things off may protect us from discomfort temporarily, it’s rarely the best idea to pass unfinished things on to the future versions of ourselves. The potential consequences are endless and it can become...

Stop Procrastinating and Just Start
It's a common belief that perfectionism is one of the main causes of procrastination. Does having high standards make it harder to start?

In this episode I chat to Dr Tim Pychyl, psychologist and head of the Procrastination Research Group at Carleton University, Canada.

We talk neuroscience, specifically the roles of the amygdala and prefrontal cortex in procrastination, and what recent MRI scans of the brains of procrastinators and non-procrastinators have revealed. We talk psychology...
