11．We've all had the experience of wanting to get a project done but putting it off to a later date.So why do we delay things？Are we built to operate this way at some times？
These questions are central to my research on goal pursuit（追求）.It all starts with a simple choice between working now on a given project and doing anything else.The decision to work on something is driven by how much we value accomplishing the project in that moment — what psychologists call its subjective value.And delay，in psychological terms，is what happens when the value of doing something else outweighs the value of working now.
This way of thinking suggests a simple trick to defeat delay.For example，instead of cleaning my house，I might try to focus on why grading papers is personally important to me.It's simple advice，but sticking to this strategy（策略）can be quite difficult.
People are not entirely wise in the way they value things.For example，a dollar bill is worth exactly the same today as it is a week from now，but its subjective value — roughly how good it would feel to own a dollar — depends on other factors besides its face value，such as when we receive it.The tendency for people to devalue money and other goods based on time is called delay discounting.For example，receiving ﹩100 three months from now is worth the same to people as receiving ﹩83 right now.People would rather lose ﹩17 than wait a few months to get a larger reward.
Getting something done is a delayed reward，so its value in the present is reduced：the further away the deadline is，the less attractive it seems to work on the project right now.The tendency to delay things closely follows economic models of delay discounting.One way to manage it is to make the finish line seem closer.For example，vividly imagining a future reward reduces delay discounting.
