I really find myself procrastinating when I have to blog on the internet or study for a test or just doing homework because there are so many distractions. Facebook, MySpace, Twitter, AIM, or just searching the web for something to do other than the assignment. It is really hard to focus on such a ridiculous assignment.
Procrastination is easy to avoid if you set your mind to doing the assignment. You can set a plan and make a goal. Think about the following how long will the assignment take, when is it due, make sure you stick to your goal, ask questions about the assignment, reward yourself when you finish. If it is a lengthy assignment take it one step at a time, take the assignment in parts(break it down). Do the hard assignment first, expect the unexpected ( you can't pick when something comes up), and most of all don't get distracted.
When you find yourself distracted just remember that the assignment is more important. Just focus on finishing the assignment and then go on the computer. Stay focused on the task at hand. Procrastination happens to almost everyone and it is very difficult to avoid. Just stay focused and remember what is important.
Homework and projects can be difficult. Just think the sooner you get the assignment the sooner you can do what you want to do.
Procrastination is a problem for everyone! I'm not sure there will ever be a solution to this problem!
ReplyDeleteI myself and procrastinating right now. As I type this, I have a script that I need to type up by tommorow. Procrastination is a problem that most people face daily.
ReplyDeleteMaybe people wouldn't procrastinate if they actually had interest in what they were doing.
ReplyDeleteAnti-Procrastination tips noted. I suck at getting stuff done early.
ReplyDeleteI don't usually do things early unless I know I don't have the time later but it all comes down to good time management. The picture at the end is funny.
ReplyDeleteHilarious picture! Procrastination is a huge problem for me. Good tips:)
ReplyDeleteMaybe procrastination wouldn't be so much of a problem if we weren't so time cramped and stressed (referring to Oconnor's blog)
ReplyDeleteIf we weren't under so much stress, and actually had interesting projects, students probably wouldn't procrastinate so much.
ReplyDeleteI think that teens need to get over their attitude that they have when they get a project, and maybe they will not procrastinate.
ReplyDeleteI am sooo guilty of this! ...everyone is
ReplyDeleteI'll actually post something later...
ReplyDeleteya i procrastinate alot... obviously as im posting on the last day here (along with all seven posts above mine)
ReplyDeleteGood post and I like the picture! People wouldn't procrastinate as much if they weren't so busy.
ReplyDeleteI am a procrastinator and i hate it! I wish i wasn't so busy so i could actually have leisure time to slow down and get stuff done early, instead of cramming (like right now with all these comments!). :)
ReplyDeleteGood post. I think having less stress and not so many things to do would help with procrastination.
ReplyDeleteI love to procrastinate. Lots of people do it and it is a bad habit.
