THE SENSATION OF FRUSTRATION ABOUT PROCRASTINATION


Procrastination is...

AVOIDANCE Procrastination is avoiding high-priority actions, replacing them with tasks of lower priority. Tasks of high priority will not be completed until the very last moment.

Procrastination is...

A BATTLE! A battle between two individual parts of the brain fighting against each other for your attention, like two little toddlers at tea time.

04


Procrastination is denial. Denying that checking your emails is less important than revising for the test you have next week. Procrastination is not washing the dishes. It’s learning to play an instrument, and it’s giving up learning to play an instrument. It’s washing the dishes instead of something else.

Procrastination is...

DISTRACTION

Getting distracted by first person shooter video games, and online clips of cats playing the piano. An entertaining option that diverts you away from all your worries and stress.

Procrastination is...

GIVING UP Saying that you will start tomorrow.

Saying that you WILL start tomorrow.

Procrastination is frustrating.
