Do you procrastinate?

I have a report due Tuesday that I've known about for months, yet here it is Sunday night and I haven't started working on it yet. I've been so terrible about getting started on it, I just can't get motivated! Are you like this? Do you procrastinate on things that you know you should work on?

I have seriously intended to procrastinate but I haven't gotten around to it. Maybe tomorrow.

sometimes i think we just have so much other things to get to that we feel overwhelmed. even myself thats disabled. i still have so much to get to that i dont want to or dont feel like doing. so, yes, i've been like that all my life and people often get aggravated at me and I, myself, even get aggravated at others for the very same thing i do myself

Ahh.....procrastinating. Yup, I procrastinate. That's the reason I'm online responding to this discussion instead of studying for my final exam. Hopefully we both get started on our work soon. Cheers

Guilty one here! My job makes me work hard. Then when I get home, there is more work to be done, with my kids. So, whenever I get a break, I take it. I take it all the time, and longer than I am supposed to. This is where I procrastinate. I should just get working to finish everything, but I dont.

I do too. I learn about a task real early but I don't go ahead and do it and end up waiting for the deadline. Once the deadline is so near, that's the time I get motivated, but if I don't get enough time then I end up submitting a bad work. The worst part, i never learn haha

Think about the good grade you will get if you do it properly, if grades are important to you, if not try to imagine how proud your parents will be if you get a good grade.

Yes, I always procrastinate, because I find that it is very troublesome having to do all the work. If I get any homework I will try to do it quickly, but it ends up dragging on until the last minute. There is always something else to do that will avert my attention. Mylot, for example. I'm supposed to be working on something now but instead I'm responding to your discussion
