•Mañana is a Spanish word meaning "tomorrow or later."
In the Philippines, if Mañana habit is translated to Filipino it implies as "Mamaya na." As a Pinay, I for one could say the majority of my fellow citizens are practicing Mañana habit.
I'm an incoming third-year college student and personally cannot deny that myself is suffering. Last school year I had depression. Unfortunately, I keep on procrastinating, whenever I'm about to do something important such as studying for an incoming exam, do my project, and even committing to my part-time online work in my head I manage on saying "mamaya na."
A day or even hours before the deadline, I'm determined to succeed in complying with my task on time. However, eventually, I feel that given the limitation of time (obviously a cause of my actions), I wasn't able to perform the task 100% of my capacity and passion because I need to rush. In addition to feeling empty, I often experienced burn out. I failed to balance work and play. Searching for tips on how to defeat Mañana's habit doesn't seem to work.
Struggling to combat procrastination took a toll on me. I've changed a bit though I haven't overcome it yet, I don't think I will ever be. After all the same as you and the others, I'm only human. All I aspire to achieve is to hopefully mitigate it gradually and effectively and be able to be back on track of being competitive in my academics and personal life.
How about you? Did you experience it too?
His is me with my manuscripts 😂😂😂 and so i needed to pull an all nighter to finish it before the deadline. The result wasn't all that impressive, of course
