J3FF3R00 Posted June 18, 2011 Share Posted June 18, 2011 I'm doing it right now. Why is it so hard to just get shit done when I need to do it? Is anyone else crippled by this problem? I'm eternally fucked. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest jim Posted June 19, 2011 Share Posted June 19, 2011 Screw those mediocre "men of action" as the underground man calls them. Procrastination means you think too much which might mean you're smart. Or just a lazy sod. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Meadows and Labyrinths Posted June 19, 2011 Share Posted June 19, 2011 i have been working 12 hour shifts and talking to five different girls, arranging and scheduling times to meet with each and every one of them, planning out my money for the respective dates, all while keeping a steady $100 dollars a week in the savings account, bills paid on time. the other day, i finished a website idea of mine for my photography, and started on another one for another site the next day. i don't procrastinate much, but, i think it's because i love the things that i'm usually busy with. Alcoholism is a disease as procrastinating is a disease and i still make time for alcoholism. ps. i'm posting this from one of the girls' houses while she's in the shower.

delet... Posted June 19, 2011 Share Posted June 19, 2011 I was watching a documentary about the life of noted British 60's fashion designer Ossie Clark. In it his lifelong friend, David Hockney was speaking about Ossie's need to be seen as an artist. Now it is known that Ossie Clark spent a lot of his time on the party circuit drugging and drinking. So on reflecting whether he was an artist on not David Hockney said that an artist is at home a lot, doing his art, that is what an artist is. So maybe we're intelligent or talented, but without single minded drive, we're nothing. It's worth remembering that. /gets back to watching bbC documentaries, and doing the washing up. watmming Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Gabriel Posted June 19, 2011 Share Posted June 19, 2011 How to Beat Procrastination This article (which has a really impressive reference list of over 30 items) explains procrastination using the formula motivation = expectancy * value --------------------- impulsiveness * delay which suggests that "to beat procrastination, we need to: Increase your expectancy of success. Increase the task's value (make it more pleasant and rewarding). Decrease your impulsiveness." The article then provides suggestions for how to accomplish each of the 3.
