When Procrastination Begins to take over...

Have you ever had one of those days, weeks or even months where you simply make up reasons why you can do what you have been putting off later?

I like to call it the procrastination monkey on your shoulder. Honestly, it is draining. So draining that just thinking about doing what needs to be done makes you want to roll your eyes and it just emotionally drains you.

I think about this quite a lot and I decided that maybe my tips for overcoming procrastination may help you.

For example, if your obsessed with social media or binge watching netflix etc and you have exams coming up, do you want a good future or one where you are struggling for money everyday.

2.) Think about the consequences

For example, if you decide you will do your paperwork the day before your deadline, it would most likely not be your best piece of work. You will be panicked and I get why would someone put any effort into paper work, maybe not the best example, but I hope you understand what I am trying to get at.

Procrastination can be seen as the enemy. Think of it as a treacherous sin that will make your life messy and cause chaos. Not very attractive at all. I mean sometimes we are all guilty, from time to time, of procrastinating here or there, its normal. Just so long as you don’t make it a continous habit.
