Procrastination
I’m a procrastinator. As a result, I have discovered a number of online procrastination groups and web sites. I can’t help but think that all the people visiting these sites are just procrastinating. Many of them even admit it in their comments.
According to 43things.com, over 19,000 people want to stop procrastinating. That’s 19,000 people who were procrastinating on 43things. There must be another 19,000 people procrastinating on a different site. I think almost every facebook user is suffering from procrastination.
Do any of these sites or groups help people with their procrastination? I find that most of them offer simple tips that are not effective by themselves.
Are you a procrastinator? Are you a former procrastinator? What was your cure?

So, I was reading your blog because I was procrastinating .. .. .. ’nuff said.

Organization is my bigger issue. If I have something to do, I either do it right away or put it off later than I want.
I don’t think I’m a HUGE procrastinator. I”m more of a too-likely-to-take-on-too-much-and-get-overwhelmedinator. Also a leave-too-many-small-tasks-to-do-on-Sunday-so-I-can’t-really-enjoy-the-dayinator.
So maybe those are related to procrastination. Maybe not.
But definitely, Facebook is a problem. Why open that up when I’m already emailing or trying to get to people’s blogs?
And what the hell is a Vampire Bite on there?

I’ve had a book on my bookshelf called “Overcoming Procrastination” that I’ve been meaning to read for 20 years. No joke.
