Usually when it comes to bad habits, just remember about smoking, excessive consumption of alcohol, sweets or overeating. But in fact, all of us in varying degrees, characterized by at least 10 bad habits that we do not notice it. And yet, in many respects they are reflected in our self-esteem and the ability to achieve goals.
Ruthless / frequent self-criticism: Perfectionism - the main enemy of this productivity. In an effort to "do your best" can be months not budge, because the front page of the new site seems to be not enough for you the ideal; the new text does not seem sufficiently stylistically; selected gym - comfortable enough, etc. In addition, the eternal "I could do it much better than did", "I could make ..." and other similar "could" make us people with complex latent failure. You could become a millionaire, but did not; let's understand better who you have become and for what you can praise yourself right now (by the way, it is appropriate to recall the recent post about slovah- "blockers").
"Jamming" problems:
Fighting inner conflict and stress often becomes the most simple and the most destructive form of "go sing." As a result, instead of saving their health and the natural proportions of your body you acquire body fat, chronic disease and sedentary lifestyle with regular dish "vkusnyashek" in front of TV .
Workaholic instead of productive work:
The deeper / stronger your problems - the greater the desire to "bury" them away from the work (I know what I'm talking about: himself often prevent similar). Workaholics seem his superiors / managers priceless shots of projects, because they are able to pull "for himself and for the guy" for a long time and even get from such a situation, a "high." The only question is how long you have enough, and at what point in you will pass the nerves fail or health in general (do not forget that most workaholics office leads a sedentary lifestyle, and this will inevitably degrade the performance of the heart, kidneys, stomach, blood vessels, spine).
The desire to please / please everyone:
Everyone likes only the bill of $ 100. But we are still trying to improve our image and external image: select only the best photos to social networks, seek only the best and "loud" project, the girls spend a lot of money on expensive jewelry and cosmetics. Instead, it would be better to learn more new things for themselves; spending more time with family and friends; like myself in the mirror in the morning (not mask the dark circles under his eyes from lack of sleep with tons of "plaster", and the extra 5 kg weight - ultranarrow jeans).
View instead of reading the series:
Time for a good book (which develops your imagination gives you new knowledge, practical tips and replenish your vocabulary) you have as usual "is not enough"; but you know what happened to Max Black last week than over the last series The Good Wife and criticize writers for season tightened Revenge. You can justify at least a little, if you watch TV shows in English, simultaneously improving their language skills. If you are just asking for the next portion of rutrekere voiced in Russian serial "bubble gum" - time for you to think about books.
Habit linger late into the night:
I confess, myself suffer like. "A very interesting film," "entertaining book," "do not want to sleep" late dinner and other such reasons lead to the fact that we go to bed the same day in which are going to wake up. As a result, even a 9 hours of sleep you can not save; and weakness in the morning becoming commonplace.
Indiscriminate food:
Again, there is no time to go for lunch, but because you are "shut off the" coffee and a pack of biscuits on the job? Throw a line job where you earn to 30 years in chronic gastritis, problems with pressure and tendency to diabetes. Slaves on Turkish galleys did not need food and rest; You live in the XXI century, when people must necessarily be hour lunch break. And breakfast - the most important meal for your body. Cigarettes, coffee and mint chewing gum in the concept of "breakfast" does not include (and yes, a girl, you may not lose weight per gram, if instead of breakfast will be 1 to smoke a cigarette on the way to work).
Habit be endless to-do lists:
You know, as now looks my notebook? It is a place the list of cases only 1 day, tomorrow. Calendar plans for the quarter, infinite "motivational lists", "desires of the board" and other piles of goals and objectives for the month / quarter / year / end of life is irrevocably gone. To cope with the tasks and objectives in the current situation - that is important. Filling out the list on Day 1, you will see the end of the month, how much did. Filling out the list for the month / quarter ahead - to see how much you were able to do and fall into sadness and depression from the fact that you again "caught" procrastination, you have not been able, etc. As a result - we get the habit of ruthless self-criticism (supra.), And instead of the little "stick" for his successes - big "stick" for all unfulfilled.
The accumulation of unnecessary things:
Need 2 smartphone? And the old jacket, which you do not go? And 10 pairs of jeans? A 25 t-shirts? Girls, and you need "here is the pair of shoes, because I already have two of these, but there is light green, and I want in the future to buy a light green dress"? Buy a dress - will be looking for shoes. Do not carry 10 out of 20 pairs of jeans - give needy / sell. And in general - maybe it is time to find the application useless / old things?
Inattention to the family and friends:
"Mom, I'm busy right now." "Grandma, I'll call you back later" (and do not call back for 3 days). "Let's play tomorrow, because today the Pope is necessary to make a report." The familiar phrase? The day will come when no one will tell you these words. Why are you still neglect the most precious people in your life for the sake of solving problems / issues that can wait? Half an hour of your time - it's not so much for those who do not have your account in exchange for money or "tick" in the project list.
