When I was at college I wanted to improve my score of PE, so I persisted in exercising after school.
I did it one month but still get a poor result in the examination. What my PE teacher conveyed to me was where the key part was not exercise but body itself. She didn’t tell me direct, worrying that it might hurt your self-respect.
Even so, I didn’t give it up. In another excited examination of race, when it was started, I followed one guy and always kept paces with him. After the guy slowed down, I found another one to follow again. Finally I made it, but I got first in the race with my eyes filling with tears.

How to Overcome Procrastination (拖延症)
If you've ever put off an important task, you know it wouldn’t be fair to describe yourself as lazy. This is just procrastination.
“Procrastination” is derived from the Latin verb procrastinare — to put off until tomorrow. But it's more than just voluntarily delaying. 1.. It means doing something against our better judgment.
We must realize that procrastination is about emotions, not productivity. 2.. Nor are we able to overcome it only by learning ways of self-control. It has to do with managing our emotions in a new way.
3.. This is what researchers found. Students who were able to forgive themselves for procrastinating when studying for a first exam ended up procrastinating less when studying for their next exam. They concluded that self-forgiveness might guarantee future success. It allows students to move pass their improper behavior and focus on the next exam without burden.
Another choice is to make your temptations (诱惑) less attractive. 4.. We can put obstacles between ourselves and our temptations to create a sense of frustration or anxiety. If you keep checking your social media, say, your WeChat, delete those apps from your phone for a while.
Researchers also suggested that we make the things we want to do as easy as possible for ourselves. 5., sleep in your exercise clothes.
A.That may be easier said than done
B.One choice is to explore our curiosity
C.If you feel like running early in the morning
D.So we can’t just download a time management app
E.One option is to forgive yourself when you procrastinate
F.Procrastination also came from the ancient Greek word akrasia
G.It’s still easier to change our surroundings than changing ourselves
