Why do we procrastinate?
Hang on a moment... and I’ll tell you.
Oh, you want to know now. Well, that means taking action and to be honest, it’s not something I’m very good at.
Or rather, it’s something I’m sometimes not very good at. I can take action. Give me a straight forward situation that needs some straight forward action, and I’m there. I mean really there. I’m the one saying “Let’s just do it now. Why wait until later?”
I figure I have enough to do without adding things to my list, so by taking immediate action, I’m reducing the number of items on my “to do” list.
However other things don’t seem to work quite so well with me: things like getting going in the morning, sitting down to write a blog, planning my jobs for the day.
