Procrastination, what a interesting thing . it always seems like the right thing to do at the time, until the day before the test. then you realize that hey, maybe i should not have taken so many of those "breaks" or all those "days off". so why do it? well, there are a lot of reasons. The biggest being, its just boring, something else is more fun. when people procrastinate, they always find a reason for why they are doing it so thy can convince themselves, even if subconsciously to not feel guilty. But there are reasons to do the work, like if you wait till the last day before a project is due you learn a lot less about the subject the if you did it in 10 minute chunks over multiple weeks(this has been proven to be the most effective study habits by 100's of study's). So, how do you break the loop? its actually very simple. instead of convincing your self why you should not be doing something all you need to do is convince your self that you should, which is much harder than it seems but it is one of the only ways to stop procrastination.

hi Pinksheep,
ReplyDeleteas My Name's Jeff said, there are a few typos, but thats just a heads up. I love your blog post. I liked it because instead of just explaining what procrastinating is like and your experience of it, you gave an answer on how to change. I wonder though, has this method worked for you? it seems like it would!
thanks,
liv

Hello Pinksheep,
ReplyDeleteI thought your blog was extremely true and showed the real scene of how middleschoolers do their homework. I thought it was very entertaining and you did a good job on telling a thoughtful but funny story. What inspired you to write this, do you sometimes procrastinate?
Hi JDbills99,
DeleteYes sometimes I procrastinate as well, we all do. What inspired me to write this was that i procrastinate, and that there needs to be a little more awareness about it.
oops my name is also JDBill99
ReplyDeletedear pinksheep,
ReplyDeleteDo you procrastinate? if so did you, or will you break that habit?
I like to procrastinate over the weekend, but I always get my work done, so is it all that bad to procrastonate?
Hey pinksheep,

ReplyDeleteDo you know the psychological reason why we procrastinate? I do procrastinate and sometimes loose sleep because of it.
Good job on your blog post!
