I am terrible when it comes to deadlines and getting things done on time. When it is stuff for someone else i do it perfectly and get it done ages in advance but when it's like paying for bills, assignments, stuff that is important for me (like going to the gym) i just can't get myself motivated to do it!
Do you have any advice or strategies to help me??
Do you do the same thing??

I do not put things off. I am the type of person that has to get things done right away. If I get a bill, I pay it ahead of time. If I have to get a task done, I do it right away. I think I just have that type of personality. If I don't get things done, I will continue to think about it until it is done.

I am very very particular inthat. i do my things all before the deadline, because when the deadline comes, there isa huge line to pay bills end everything nad in the lasy moment at times, when it is your turn the time is gone and you see a board "closed". that is so very frustating, so i think when it is us only who have to pay all that then why should we wait, and for whom, nobody in the end will come to help us, on the contrary, on the last date or day, it is such a big mess that i cant even stand that. there is so much of stress otherwise also in life, so why to take one more on our own when we can do it.

I am totally different then you. I always do things as they come up, immediately. That way I know it's done and I don't have to stress about it, like you are. lol hehe
But my hubby is just like you. He always waits till the last minute. With everything. It frustrates me to no end. Most of the time it doesn't work in his favour, but once in a while it does, and then he rubs it into me, like see if we hadn't waited... something better came out of it. But that doesn't happen enough.
And I have to admit this is the case with me now, I haven't started my christmas shopping yet and christmas is only one week away. This is so unlike me that it scares me a little. Oh well, it will happen. I'll get it done.
