"It's always been a dream of mine to have done a Ted Talk in the past" Tim Urban's kind of brilliance only comes along once a generation If you don't believe me, go get your mind warped by his Fermi Paradox post on Wait But Why
Comment from : rhymeswithluck

I love this Ted talk I could understand though I don’t know some difficult English words cause I am JapanesebrSome important things for our life that many people might think, money, love, successful careers and so on, are obtainable by self growth And the self growth can be achieved by having deadlines all the time in my life brBy watching this Ted talk, now I can understand why I am so lazy There is the monkey in my head🐒

Comment from : Jackson Buddy

Yes I'm a procrastinator But the way I see it, why bother tying myself down with goals that in all likelihood I'll not achieve or if so only with great stress Enjoy every moment no matter what it is If tomorrow comes great, if not so be it I've not done a whole lot with my life but I've certainly enjoyed it and made some great friends along the way

Comment from : Jose Guzman

Powerful
Comment from : Mrgreyfox

This is the best Ted Talk ever existed Because, to be honest, all procrastinator knows precisely what he is talking about All of us have been there or even we are there right now The most interesting part is the bad feeling about not even being able to chase your dream because you don't have a specific deadline, even when you really wanna make it good, Go for it and be the best You can't Because you are too busy procrastinating and feeling really about doing it
Comment from : Nicolt lopez

The irony of this video is that people who procrastinate, are actually procrastinating stuff watching this video with full attention :D

Here are two knowledge objects extracted from the content:brbr### Title: Understanding the procrastinator's mindbrbr- Fact: The content is a transcript of a TED talk by Tim Urban about procrastination brbr- Situation: Many procrastinators struggle with getting things done and feel frustrated brbr- Cause: Procrastinators have an "Instant Gratification Monkey" in their brain that prioritizes short-term pleasure over long-term goals brbr- Approach: Procrastinators need to become more aware of the "Monkey" and find ways to allow their "Rational Decision Maker" to take control, especially for tasks without deadlines Planning and accountability can helpbrbr### Title: The two types of procrastination brbr- Fact: The content discusses insights about procrastinationbrbr- Situation: Many procrastinators feel unhappy and regretful about how procrastination has affected their livesbrbr- Cause: There are two types of procrastination - short term (with deadlines) and long term (no deadlines) Long term procrastination can slowly ruin careers, relationships, health, etcbrbr- Approach: To overcome long term procrastination, we need to set our own deadlines and accountability The "Panic Monster" won't come to our rescue here - we have to find internal motivation

The frustration is not that they couldn't achieve their dreams; it's that they weren't even able to start chasing them

Comment from : Aziza Katili

Best Ted talk ever
Comment from : Matteo P

Sometimes it's not the "I-G-monkey", but you just avoid doing the thing that needs to be done, or do other good and important things instead, until you realize that you're out of time And when you've had enough of panicking and half-aing your life tasks you just give up sometimes and cancel the deadline if possible It lets other people down, and you lose all faith in yourself It even feels like giving up on life But doing so second time - you're not that shocked anymore, cause you know, that you are like that, so you just accept your failure, and all the consequences Living this way puts you down, also makes you a little more humble But it's not worth it
