大家好，我是Yuli。欢迎收听我的播客。
今天想和大家聊一聊【拖延症】的话题。
大家知道什么是拖延症吗？这里有一些拖延症的表现，一起来看看是不是你吧。
第一，非常爱睡懒觉，早上起床需要设很多个闹钟。特别是周末的时候，可能按掉最后一个闹钟以后干脆放弃早起的念头，继续睡到大中午。
第二，每天告诉自己要早睡，但是睡前一直玩手机。每次都告诉自己，再玩半个小时就去睡了。半个小时过去了，又告诉自己，再玩十分钟吧。第二天很困很累，告诉自己今天晚上一定要早点睡。但是同样的事情又发生了，每天都是这样。
第三，下定决心要运动，但是计划拖了一天又一天也没有开始。或者是运动了几天就坚持不了，看到美食就忍不住大吃大喝。每次吃完就告诉自己，明天我要开始运动了。到了第二天，又有各种借口不运动了。
第四，本来计划好了要做一件事情，但是很容易被其他的小事情分散注意力。做没一会儿就想起来要去泡杯咖啡，或者玩会儿手机。总觉得待会再做问题不大，但是一眨眼半天的时间就没了。
看完这些拖延症的表现，我发现自己中枪了（被说中了）。这说的不就是我吗？不过我也有不拖延的时候，一般是我有很明确的目标要做一件事情的时候。这个时候我可以很投入，经常觉得时间过得很快，到了吃饭的时候也不愿意停下来。心理学上把这种状态叫做“心流”，英语叫做Flow。还有一个好方法是，把大的目标分成很多个小目标，这样才更容易开始改变。例如我想早点睡觉，那我可以每天早睡10分钟，慢慢地改变。
你觉得你有拖延症吗？你的解决方法是什么？留言告诉我吧。我们下期见。

01 The best way to apologise

上次发了疫情文学（1）很多朋友不禁捧腹，于是今天出了疫情文学（2）以飨读者：D


1.	于千万人之中遇到你所要遇见的人，于千万年之中，时间无涯的荒野里，没有早一步，没有晚一步。刚好赶上了，那也没有别的话好说，唯有轻轻的问一句：“哦，你也在这里排队做核酸吗？”
2.	“生活总是这么痛苦吗？还是只有疫情的时候才这样？”“总是这样”
3.	我要看的不只是绿码，还有您的48小时核酸检测报告，纳斯塔霞 菲利波夫纳“公爵说。”你是说我？我的48小时核酸检测报告？“”是的，您“，
4.	这是最好的时代，也是最坏的时代；这是一个新冠的年代，这是一个核酸的年代；这是一个封城的时期，这是一个带口罩的时期。
5.	假如你有幸生活在21世纪20年代，那么你此后一生中不论去到哪里，口罩、健康码，核酸检测都与你同在，因为疫情是一席流动的盛宴。
