Self discovery

Have you ever wondered how much time you spend procrastinating on certain tasks?. well if you have here is what i have noticed about me!! hopefully it would lead you to discovering your self on procrastination to.....

    “where do you stand on the perils of procrastination?” made me realize how much time I waste before doing certain task daily. Sometimes I find it hard to motivate myself when I have a list of other things I need to work on. I would always find reasons as to why I can’t work on a particular task just to clear my conscience of guilt. I am very conscious about doing my work right and on time, but many other factors like the length of the assignment, type of assignment and the due date makes it easy for me to push them farther away towards the anticipated due date. Recently I have found out that I am more inclined to procrastinate on works that involves a lot of writing and reasoning than assignment that have a path of reasoning or directive, like mathematics.

        For instance, I am most likely to finish my mathematics assignment weeks before the due date, not because I like math’s but because it does not require me to put words together and pass a message with it. On the other hand when I have a research paper to write on I easily get distracted by my Facebook page. Anytime I have something of this nature to do is when I would get loads of text messages. I find it rude on my path to not reply these chats which makes me a victim of procrastination on that assignment. While sometimes I am legitimately worked out on other assignments that needs much more focus and time. This reason makes other assignments less worthy of my time.

        I also find it difficult in prioritizing my work and the people around me. This is one of my biggest nightmares right from day one.  I believe that if I can make certain things my priority I would be more focused and procrastinate less when it comes to doing my work. Recently I have taken steps in order to reduce the rate at which I procrastinate. I normally go to the school library after class to study and finish most of my assignments before going to do something entirely different from school work. This has helped me today to be more efficient in my work and also it has made my life much easier
