BBC六分钟英语｜我们为什么拖延Why do we procrastinate?
A lot of stuff you read about procrastination focuses on the time management element of it. I probably got a better sense that for me it seems very squarely around the emotional aspect of it. Perhaps I get more emotional gratification from doing it last minute. And, I need to understand why I prefer that over the calm serenity of getting things done with oodles of time on my hands.
你读到的很多关于拖延症的内容都集中在时间管理上。我可能更清楚地意识到，对我来说，拖延似乎完全是情感方面的问题。也许我在最后一刻做事情会得到更多的情感满足。而且，我需要理解为什么我更喜欢这样，而不是在时间充裕的情况下平静地完成事情。

In the same way that our ancestors felt good living on impulse, Eshaan thinks he gets gratification -a feeling of pleasure and satisfaction – from doing things at the last minute. What he doesn't understand is why he prefers to work under pressure, instead of finishing calmly with oodles, or lots of, time.
就像我们的祖先在冲动中生活会感觉愉悦一样，伊桑也认为他能从最后一刻做的事情中获得满足——一种快乐和满足感。他不明白的是，为什么他更喜欢在压力下工作，而不是在时间充裕的情况下冷静地完成工作。
