Alright. Let's start with a joke.
Procrastination is looked at badly in society. It's also looked at as a joke. But if you have a job you are expected not to procrastinate. Some people actually work better under the pressure. They don't do anything for the time period they have to get something finished and then they do whatever they have to do at the last minute. Like for instance, the fact that I now have to make a post every single day because I didn't stay on top of the game. Which seriously, wasn't intentional. I assumed that the freakin assessment could be done until you know, end of semester. Oh well. I can do this. Anyways. I also have a friend that started working on one of his essays...today..and yes, it is due today, at five. So I think that procrastination can be a great tool for some people but it can be deadly for others, like me. They say that some people procrastinate because there is too much stress or pressure on them to do well and they are scared to do it. To be honest, this has happened to me before. It actually happens more often than I like it to. But some people just cant relax. These people are perfectionists. I procrastinate because I want to be perfect and if I think I cant be perfect with something (like this fucking film class. who told me to take a film class?) I don't want to do it so I procrastinate. That's different from the person mentioned above. Everyone cant procrastinate. I think its an art. But whats sad is that you just cant help yourself sometimes. My final verdict is that if you get er done (yes, Southern American joke) then whatever. But if procrastination leads you to failure or poor markings, don't do it!
Okay, so this is a website that a man made to talk about structured procrastination. I think some of what he is saying is true but some of it totally isn't!
