I?ve discovered that the less time I have, the more work I get done. This concept doesn't really make that much sense. While more time allows for more commitment and more effort, less time forces faster work and an inevitable decrease in quality. The big question is, why procrastinate?.
Many believe that procrastination is a bad thing that must be weeded out of society. After all, everyone does it. Almost everyone I know is willing to admit they would benefit from a How to Eliminate Procrastination 101 class. Many things cause this phenomenon. Lack of interest is a big one. If someone has no interest in a topic, they are naturally not going to want to spend a great deal of time on that topic. Evaluation, anxiety, ambiguity, fear of failure, self-doubt, fear of success, inability to handle a task, environmental conditions, lack of information, and other interests could all be deemed causes of procrastination.
I, however, think differently. Procrastination is a finely tuned art form requiring years of practice. It is a skill above all others. Someone who does more work in less time has an edge on everyone else. Procrastination does not come easily. There are many factors that determine a high achiever in the art of procrastination. Time management skills, experience and debate are essential for a good procrastinator. .
If you ask a procrastinator,What time is it?? I guarantee he will know the answer. We have a keen sense of time. This skill arises from knowing exactly when the deadline for accomplishing a task is. When I am procrastinating, I know exactly how much time can be wasted before the task must be started. If someone is constantly checking his watch or glancing at the clock, most likely he is a procrastinator.
Some procrastinating skills come naturally, but a great deal are learned through experience. We live a life full of deadlines and with these deadlines limitless opportunities to procrastinate arise.
