    Lightbulb R U A Procrastinator???

    I've been putting things off since I was a child. For ex..I woke up around 9am w/ the strict point to do some math homework. As you can see, it's going on 6pm and I haven't even cracking the dam book.

    I was on amazon.com last night looking up books on procrastination. I found one that looks pretty promising: Make Your Mind Work For You This book is an audio CD. Does anyone have it?

    I'm such a procrastinaor that I bought a book on how to fix it on iTunes a loooong time ago and I have yet to listen to it. (It's not the same book you mentioned)

    LOL!

    I am a total procrastinator, always late for everything. DJing has been good for me in that respect--you cannot be late for work.

    Hugest procrastinator EVER! Every weekend I have al ist of things to accomplish and every weekend I get mad at myself that I barely accomplished anything b/c I keep putting things off and then I run out of time. Today the only thing I've accomplished was to eat shit-loads of Peeps and Apple Pie Cheesecake. And trust me, that wasn't even on my list of things to accomplish!

    Me a procrastinator? Well.....lets just say its the one thing I can multi-task very well.


    Although I have a valid excuse. I came out of my mother's womb three weeks past due. They had to induce labor on her to get me out of there.

    The rest, shall we say, is history.

    Yeah, I am guilty of that sin, too. And here's the worst part. The more I procrastinate, the more I get behind. The more I get behind, the more I procrastinate, because, well ... I'm behind anyways so what's the point?

    And on and on it goes.

    Very much so, however, it's served me pretty well in school though I'm admittedly better at the whole financial and professional responsibility things.

    Life just doesn't have enough time in it for me to approach things with the necessary ease of pace I would otherwise prefer.
    Idealism is fine, but as it approaches reality, the costs become prohibitive.

    Yes....like i have yet to do my stupid taxes and the deadline is coming up. Or like when I wake up and always say, "Ok, THIS time I'm really going to clean the apartment!" Ha. Oh, and SW makes it worse! I'll have a million things to do and instead be here on SW reading.

    The problem with books or videos like that would be that every time I check one out from the library, I keep putting off reading or watching until it's time to take it back again.

    I read that book... it works real well. My favourite though was 'upgrade your brain'... I went through a mind-reading book kick.. where I read books about minds, of course.

    It depends. If it's something really important or something I really want, I do it so I can stop worrying and obsessing over it.

    If it's something that can be put off without dire consequences, I usually do. ie, the washing the dishes


    I think I'm getting better though...
