Procrastinators Unite!

I found this Ted talk after scrolling through someone’s twitter page and found it to be very relatable. A sad as it may seem, I was relieved that I wasn’t the only one to procrastinate that much. All of which Tim said are very true. I can’t say no when anyone invited me to hang out, so I left the work at the table. But one thing I found when I am procrastinating, is that the panic monster makes me more creative, because I have to think harder. I don’t say that I do well under pressure, but only in under pressure that I can come up with something. Sometimes the idea is good, sometimes it’s more bitter than bitter gourd. Getting organised seemed aloof to me, because it means surprises that may come to your life one point. But I respect those who are organised, because it means they can prioritise their life.

I think for us procrastinators, the other reason we are so explicitly lazy is because we haven’t made planning a habit. We haven’t been taught to plan and stick with the plan by ourselves, or even our teachers. It’s hard to form a habit. It would roughly take 3 months to form a habit. It takes commitment to form a habit, especially the ones you don’t enjoy now. Is it necessary to form that habit? No. But is it for the benefit of myself? Yes.  It all comes down to who you are, and who do want to be. People have their own tactic to do their homework, but procrastination will always be that monkey in your life. I am still a procrastinator, are you?
