Procrastination is a bad thing

Let's see, I have a whole bunch of school papers /homework due next week and I haven't started a single one. I think I'm starting to get lazy again :(

Any of you guys have problems with procrastination? It is kind of a broad question and is a common problem, but I've never been so bummed out, especially with the Thanksgiving holiday coming. I can hardly wait to drive home tomorrow...

I'm crossing my fingers that after hanging out in this forum, I'd get started somehow.

:evil:

I do, I always say okay I have X amount of time left, that's plently, let me do what I want for now, and find myself saying it over and over again.

That's very true :( . But once I get started on something, it becomes okay after that. Maybe I should grab more Redbulls or coffee to get going again. :P

All you need. Too much of one, just have more of the other.

Doesn't everyone have a problem with it? When I was in school I always waited until the last minute then when I went to college I'd start my homework the day it was due while I was on my lunch break :lol: It sucks... I hate it... yet I don't solve the problem and learn from my mistakes lol.

That worked great for me in highschool, and college. In university it's kicking me in the balls bad. Now I just don't do assignments :lol:

I used to be...I just finally kicked the habit.

I started work on a few things about a week early. I took a lot of breaks in between and finished for the deadline...I was impressed at how much better it is to get it done in small dosages.

I used to wait till the last minute and force myself to work all night on something...it's easier to start early.

I tried to start on a paper last night and I guess I'm off to the right track. :roll:

I put myself into trouble when I study. I go and say, well, there's still a day to study and then end up studying like 6 hours before exam. It's a bad habit, definitely.

I guess just "GIT 'R DONE" and be over with it.

Dood... everyone in some way or another procrastinates - we do it whne we have to do something and do not want to. :lol:

I usually put off all school assignments until the day before :roll: and then get pissed when I do not get a eprfect score, then I remember I did it to myself.

In college, I had no problems, straight A's, blah blah blah... now that I am in a University and working on my bachelor's, it is a whole new ballgame! I got one paper done befoer the due date, and that is one out of like 30 this semester. :shock:

Honestly, if you are procrastinating and end up failing, please only blame yourself - it is much healthier... and hey, you may learn from it! :D

I ALWAYS procrastinated at school....id study the night before, or not at all for tests and quizes. I wrote papers the night before they were due....I only went to college for 2 semesters, but I procrastinated then too.

I guess im not much of a school person either way. :?
