That even though you procrastinate, it doesn\u2019t have to yield a negative result.

In fact, when you break down the definitions of both words, you will find that they kind of contradict each other.<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.dictionary.com\/browse\/productivity?s=t\">Productive<\/a>: &#8220;the quality, state, or fact of being able to generate, create, enhance, or bring forth goods and services.&#8221;<\/li>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.dictionary.com\/browse\/procrastination?s=t\">Procrastination<\/a>: &#8220;the act or habit of putting off or delaying, especially something requiring immediate attention.&#8221;<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>However, procrastinating productively does appear to exist.<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><a href=\"https:\/\/procrastinus.com\/piers-steel\/about-the-author\/\">Piers Steel, PhD<\/a>, a psychologist at the University of Calgary, proposed the concept of productive procrastination while researching his book <a href=\"https:\/\/www.harpercollins.com\/9780062035257\/the-procrastination-equation\/\">The Procrastination Equation<\/a>.

Here are seven things to try out next time your brain decides to clock off from your current task:<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><b>1. Catch up on the news<\/b><\/h3>\n<p><b><\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">There\u2019s so much going on in the world that sometimes it\u2019s hard to keep up with current affairs. Staying informed with the news not only keeps you engaged with what\u2019s going on around you but can also help you to develop a critical mindset, be a source of inspiration, and help you in emergencies.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><b>2. Listen to a podcast<\/b><\/h3>\n<p><b><\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">There\u2019s no harm in obtaining more information if it\u2019s relevant and can be helpful to what you\u2019re working on. And even if it\u2019s just a super interesting, yet irrelevant topic, it\u2019s bound to be useful somewhere down the line.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Podcasts are a great alternative if you\u2019re keen on giving your eyes a rest from the computer screen. Learn about the history of mankind, how to maintain a healthy lifestyle, or get your head around the Bitcoin craze. You\u2019ll be sure to find a podcast for almost any topic.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><b>3. Get active<\/b><\/h3>\n<p><b><\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">If your brain is starting to shut down, why not try to activate your body in the meantime? Exercise alerts your mind and can help with <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.health.harvard.edu\/blog\/regular-exercise-changes-brain-improve-memory-thinking-skills-201404097110\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">memory and thinking<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">. So getting up and going for a run or shooting some hoops can rejuvenate your mind and help you start afresh.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">If you\u2019re not a fitness fanatic, even going out for a stroll around the block and stretching your legs can do wonders for not only your mind but also your posture.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><b>4. Improve a skill<\/b><\/h3>\n<p><b><\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Practise your foreign language skills, build on your spreadsheet capabilities, or brush up on some basic mathematics. There are so many learning tools accessible online that enhancing a skill has never been easier.<\/span><\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_16537\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-16537\" style=\"width: 500px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-16537 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/zenkit.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/04\/joey-speaking-french.gif\" alt=\"Speaking French\" width=\"500\" height=\"305\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-16537\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Be like Joey and practise your French!

Backup your files<\/b><\/h3>\n<p><b><\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">When was the last time you backed up your files into a cloud or a hard drive? Safeguarding our data is not something everyone does very often so if your brain decides to take a break, it&#8217;d be wise to use the time to secure all your documents, photos, and files to protect them from any future disasters.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><b>6. Solve a smaller problem<\/b><\/h3>\n<p><b><\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Finding solutions to smaller problems can give you the motivation and inspiration to tackle the bigger task at hand. Problem-solving is an invaluable skill to have no matter where you are in life and what exactly it is you\u2019re doing. It\u2019s a beneficial quality that spreads across industries and institutions.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>Remember, the tasks don&#8217;t have to be anything major. It can be as small as figuring out what to have for dinner, sourcing contact details of a potential client, or figuring out why your bicycle keeps on making a funny noise when you ride it.<\/p>\n<h3><b>7. Have a \u2018low energy\u2019 list on hand<\/b><\/h3>\n<p><b><\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">A \u2018low energy\u2019 list, as <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.webdesignerdepot.com\/2012\/07\/productive-procrastination\/\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Paul Boag<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> explains, is a list of tasks that doesn\u2019t require a lot of energy to complete. Because procrastination usually comes around when our brains start to get tired, having this list ready will come in handy as it will keep you occupied with useful things to do without having to think about what the tasks have to be.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>Examples of such tasks are taking the bins out, watering your plants, closing your 100+ browser tabs, and unsubscribing to all the newsletters you don&#8217;t actually read.<\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<h2 style=\"text-align: center;\"><strong>Final Thoughts<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>It&#8217;s worth noting that productive procrastination isn&#8217;t something that everyone will find practical. It&#8217;s simply a solution for those who find themselves struggling to stop procrastinating, yet still want to gain something from their time.<\/p>\n<p>For those who are eager to stop their compulsive habit, we have a plethora of posts dedicated to methods that are designed to help you stop. <a href=\"https:\/\/zenkit.com\/blog\/tag\/how-tos\/\">Click here<\/a> to start browsing.<\/p>\n<p>How do you productively procrastinate?<\/p>\n<p>Cheers,<\/p>\n<p><strong>Dinnie and the Zenkit Team<\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Procrastination is something we all know we shouldn\u2019t be doing, but we&#8217;re all guilty of.
