Starting tomorrow, I will __________________ (you can fill in the blank)
That has to be one of the best procrastination lines out there; it allows you to put off, with a strong conviction, what you should do now for another day. I should know I use it all the time.
I am a procrastinator, I procrastinate everything, even procrastination. It’s a bad habit, one that is hard to break. I always plan to, but as you would guess, I put it off for tomorrow.
Why do I do this, what motivates me to push everything off until the last minute? In truth, it depends on the task at hand, if it’s hard or something I do not like to do, I will wait until the bitter end to get to it, and if it’s something I want to do, or love I will only wait until I am close to the bitter end.
I have a big Halloween Party to get ready for, and I have started the task, but have put off what I need to do until today, and now it’s down to almost the bitter end… I just can’t help it. I think we need a support group to help us procrastinators out. But the meetings would never happen; we would just put them off until tomorrow.
Well I have more I want to write, but I think I will put it off until tomorrow…
