Don`t Procrastinate

Procrastinate means to put off doing something until a future time, often because it is unpleasant or boring. Some synonyms are defer, postpone, and delay, though these words often apply to more positive reasons for inaction.

Sometimes, procrastination takes place until the 'last minute' before a deadline. Procrastination can take hold on any aspect of life - putting off cleaning the stove, repairing a leaky roof, seeing a doctor or dentist, submitting a job report or broaching a stressful issue with a partner.

You must avoid putting off challenging tasks. Do this by a combination of revisiting the end result – reminding yourself of its value and what it will be like to achieve it – and monitoring progress. Motivate yourself!

“PROCRASTINATION IS LIKE A CREDIT CARD: IT'S A LOT OF FUN UNTIL YOU GET THE BILL.”

“KNOW THE TRUE VALUE OF TIME; SNATCH, SEIZE, AND ENJOY EVERY MOMENT OF IT. NO IDLENESS, NO LAZINESS, NO PROCRASTINATION: NEVER PUT OFF TILL TOMORROW WHAT YOU CAN DO TODAY.”

“PROCRASTINATION IS THE ART OF KEEPING UP WITH YESTERDAY.”
