And you, also "procrastins"?

And you? Procrastines too? If you don't, we are sure that you know someone who does it continuously and that, surely, makes you despair.But what does this disturbing word really mean? Let's give an example: you have been dating a person for a long time, you make plans for the future, you have many illusions and projects, however, your partner never seems to decide.He is unable to formalize your relationship because something like that, not only overwhelms him, but even He is lazy. "Are we not well like that?" I often reproach you.

Let's give another example: you may have the classic friend who never seems to finish his studies.It is easy to be an "eternal" university student who faces the responsibilities and anxieties of the working world. And what about people who spend all their time in front of a computer screen letting out "real life" ? Sometimes, it is much easier to let ourselves go, evading responsibilities, than to put means to act, to react, to be adult and consistent.It does not matter that the task to be performed is the easiest in the world, sometimes, it is better to leave it for tomorrow....

Let's talk today about procrastination.

Better tomorrow than today: procrastination

It's a really common phenomenon and even, seeing it with humility, it is something that we all have ever done.Some consider it "simple vagrancy", but, in reality, it goes far beyond this simple conception.It is also true that some experts call procrastination «the student syndrome », because it is really typical to see it in many young people who prefer to postpone their homework or study at the last moment before the imminence of an exam.

And you, also

Now, the procrasti Nation is also common in adults, in profiles with low self-esteem.They are people who, far from taking the reins of their lives, "let themselves be carried away" .Let themselves be dragged along by the placid everyday life where they hide and where to protect themselves, because the simple act of "acting" causes them stress or anxiety.They can, for example, "procrastinate" decisions.They have received a job offer in which they would have to move to another province or another country and decide that it is better not to think about it now.Better tomorrow.

In other words, is it something that depends on education and therefore is learned or instead is something innate with what we are born therefore depends on the genetic heritage of each one? This is what some scientists intend to find out. How to be nice to other people according to science DNA thing To answer this intriguing question, ask a group of scientists from University of Exeter, in the United Kingdom, used a colony of microbes in which they created a model of social evolution from which they could understand to what extent genetics can prevail about environmental conditions or the environment.The results, surprisingly, were that the behavior of individuals depends largely on a series of genetic facto...

Because more than a flavor that we can all identify, the umami would be rather a perception, an indefinable sensation that does not abound too much in our food and that only chefs strive to seek to give their dishes an almost addictive flavor.Have you ever asked why Japanese food is so tasty ? Or why do we like french fries or snaks so much? Why most contain umami, or what is the same "monosodium glutamate". But what does the "Umami" taste like? Here comes the key question: what does the Umami taste like? Scie...
