Procrastination

"Procrastination is the art of keeping up with yesterday! " - Don Marquis

Well at least it is a polite way of saying "You are plain lazy! " I am so good at procrastination that I have become immune to the nagging voice in my head .

"Nothing is so fatiguing that the eternal hanging of an uncompleted task! " -
William James

I really agree with this. I feel so frustrated to keep pushing things. I have tried so hard to stop being such a lazy bug, but everyday the procrastination disease gets more and more serious. Like, I have a Math midterm on Friday and I have been thinking about studying for it since 3 weeks. now I have a week left and am still pushing it. I wasted a whole day (but enjoyed it! :) )and I feel so guilty. I have become sickeningly good at convincing myself that I have plenty of time, when I really know that I don't. It is sad that I am so easily distracted which makes it harder for me to study even for hour!

"Procrastination is opportunity's assassin. " ~Victor Kiam

I bet! No one can understand that better than me.


"Procrastination is the thief of time." -Edward Young

Oh I know! :(

I wish there was some kind of a doctor or a procrastination specialist who would prescribe some pills which can avoid humans from procrastinating! Wouldn't that be just lovely?
Well dreaming certainly doesn't help it , so all we have to do is have a firm mind and just overrule our mind when it tries to convince us that tomorrow is the best time to do it.

"Tomorrow is the only day in the year that appeals to a lazy man. " -Jimmy Lyons

Yes, and I don't want to be a lazy person. Starting now, I am going to stop being a jerk and go back to being a nerd (well not completely. I want to be outgoing and not be too bookish ,so I can't sit inside and study all the time. Not that I will ! ) , I mean start pushing off stuff. So, I am going to publish this and get back to Math! :)
