Procrastination

“Procrastination is the solution not the problem” -Ellen Degeneres

It’s what we do when we are avoiding what we are supposed to be doing.
I am an expert, this week especially as I have several deadlines looming and I’ve managed to spend more time off task than on task.
HOWEVER- in the last couple of days I have achieved more than I normally would. In trying to avoid sitting down and writing I’ve found the time to dye my hair (the box of colour has been in the bathroom for a few months), I’ve answered long overdue personal emails, and I’ve started this blog which I have been pondering for about 6 months amongst many, many more things.

So in fact in the act of procrastinating over one or 2 items I have stopped procrastinating and actually done about 20 others.

So perhaps procrastination isn’t really an issue at all, in fact, without procrastination I don’t think I’d get anything done.

Mmmm………..
