Abstract
One way of avoiding procrastination is by activating areas within the brain where we switch from one mode of thinking to another. Scientists say the primary cause of procrastination is that people tend to become uncomfortable when they are not sure what to do. However, the discomfort can be changed. Scientists have found that stimulating the brain from an unpleasant to a happy thought is possible by fooling the brain, even it is temporary. This study focuses on brain signals during people’s interaction with non-familiar situations (diluted mode), monitors their performance during familiar activity (concentration mode), and analyzes their performance. Cerebral cortex signals are analyzed from the participant using electroencephalography (EEG). The brain can be trained to deal with unexpected scenarios that lead to frustration. This study can help improve a person’s life by training their brain to take proper action to deal with their discomfort.
