Procrastination's Grip

Today's topic is one that I briefly mentioned in a previous post (Time Management).  The focus of this post will be:  Procrastination.....(DUN DUN DUNNN!)

Okay the reason I wanted to give this topic its own post is because procrastination can ruin everything. Time management is definitely involved here, but I feel that there's a deeper root to procrastination.  Many of us do not realize the consequences procrastination has on our daily lives.

I'll give you a simple example.  A presentation is due on Thursday and it is Monday.  You know that your topic is "The History of Peanut butter" so you think, "ehh peanut butter, should be easy"  Of course you leave it for last minute, (Wednesday night) and make a real bad presentation. I'm talking so bad that George Washington Carver would turn in his grave over fifty times!

Despite your horrible presentation grade, you just dropped a whole grade point because the presentation was worth 50 percent of your final grade!

YOU SEE WHAT HAPPENS?!
NOW YOU WONT GRADUATE COLLEGE, 
YOU WONT GO TO GRAD SCHOOL, 
AND YOU MIGHT BE WORKING AT A FARMERS MARKET SELLING PEANUT BUTTER FOR THE REST OF YOUR LIFE!  

HAHA okay okay, that might be a drastic turn of events but you guys get the point!

So just keep in mind that despite how hard procrastination is to over come, it can be tamed!

Enjoy this funny video I found online about procrastination.
Stay tuned for the next post and the next installment of "The Roommate Experience"
