I love to procrastinate whenever possible. I find very creative ways to put off doing things I need to accomplish. The funny thing is that I sometimes procrastinate on doing things I enjoy, as well as things I don’t. My to-do list is always too long. My time is always too limited. My energy level is always too low. My priorities are always too jumbled. At least, these are the things I tell myself all the time, whether they are true or not. Procrastination is a choice like anything else. The trick is to realize when you are procrastinating and make some small changes to procrastinate more intelligently. I’m not going to argue that you should eliminate procrastinating, because it can be very useful. I actually believe that procrastination is a fine art and you should take the time to master it. Sometimes you have to avoid procrastinating, and sometimes you’ll need to exploit it to your advantage. Take a look at the ideas I’ve put together below and let me know what you think. (more…)
