Procrastination, the putting off of something you have to do until the very last moment. There are people who have this down to an art form. They know just how long they will be able to put that deed off and still get it done, or so they hope!
It's a problem that many people will do; it's quite easy to do at times. But when you know that it's due by a certain time, you need to work on it and get it done quickly. That way if needed you have time to make corrections.
Why do people procrastinate? Because in many cases they just don't want to do what is needed? No not really, but it's a problem that some people have gotten down to a science. One that they live each day of their life doing.
Don't let procrastination be something that you do all the time. Make yourself work on that project that you just don't want to do. Placing it as a must do, and making sure that you sit down and do it. Not just say that you're going to either.
If you're really bad about it, make a list up, and place it where you see it every day. Important things should be in red, while those other things should be listed in another color. Check it off daily when you've finished doing the important things.
It may almost seem like a board that you used as a kid when you had chores to do. Think of it in the same way. Because we do like to procrastinate those chores even as adults that we need to do. Even coming in the form of calling off sick when you really aren't sick, but just want to play for a day!
Finally, there may be ways to help you out, but you need to not procrastinate on finding them.
