Procrastination isn’t bad in every sense.
There’s time for ideas to percolate. There’s time that someone else might do the work that needs to be done. There’s time for folks to realize that maybe the task is actually a distraction from the real work that needs to be done.
BUT, more often than not, procrastination’s consequences outnumber it’s potential benefits.
The most frustrating problem about procrastinating is that the world is sure to throw you more to do right when you’ve decided to stop procrastinating and get to work.
That moment leads to overwhelming stress and frustration; feelings of being buried and unable to climb out – and if you can, it feels half-assed.
Why risk those feelings?
