Yeah, Yeah, Yeah............

So, my hope was to write in this OFTEN, well I guess often is, whenever I feel like it. Seriously, I really did want to try and do this at least weekly. I guess that means that today is a great day to start...........just one problem, I'm a procrastinator.

Maybe this will become the one thing that brings my procrastination to an end.... I have spent many a year honing the skill, I am great at it. You name it, studying, writing papers, doing projects, breaking up with boyfriends, calling or writing people back, paying bills (and I had the money), even grocery shopping. I mean, anything you can do today, you can do it tomorrow, or the next day or even the day after that. Do you see my problem? It's not like I've got something better to do, I just choose to say "yeah, I'll do it later".

I put things off so long that I panic when the dead line hits....it does get done, and done well I might add, but there is a whole lot of negative energy and four letter words along the way. They say 21 times makes a habit, does that mean that if I write in this 21 days in a row, it will just become habit? I guess this is day number 1. Wish me luck and I hope to see you tomorrow.

  1. Maybe the reason for your procrastination is becuase you've developed a habit of using the stress of a deadline as motivation - maybe you should do one thing early and relish in the feelings of relief it brings - enjoy being ahead of the game - and use that to motivate you.... It's all about motivation!
