    1. when i procrastinate, it is usually because i dont have any interest in it. WHen it is something im interested in, i dont put it off. thats why i usually procrastinate in school, because not much of it interests me.

    2. to fix my problem, i need to find interest in what i am doing. even if it is something i dont like, there always will be something involved that i can grab onto and enjoy.

    YOU SHOULDNT PUT THIS OF AND PROCRASTINATE HOW YOU WILL GET IT DONE LATER. THINGS HAVE A DATE WERE THERE DUE FOR A RESONE SO THAT YOU CAN ACTUALLY ACOMPLISH THEM CAUSE IF NOT YOU WOULD NEVER GET AROUND TO FINISHING YOUR WORK CAUSE YOU WILL ALWAYS SAY YOU WILL FINISH IT LATER..

    1: I myself procastinate because a lot of the time I just dont feel like doing the work until it is actually due. I also somtimes get overwhelmed with work or distrcated with other tasking. Either way if I get the work done.

    2: To overcome procastinataion I really have to get into the work. I also think that motivation to finish the work weather it be through insentives or other means.

    1. I procrastinate because i am lazy and love to wait until the last min to do anything. I feel as though i work better under pressure. =]

    2. I can over comeprocrastination by getting off my lazy butt and doing things on time in stead of watching tv and sleeping like i always do.

    I procrastinate because I know that I can always pull it off and get it done last minute with a passing grade. I also procrastinate because I have alot to do and I have to try and get it all done and alot of times I always end up doing the little things last minute. I think I can skip the first 2 steps and just go straight to getting over it! I know that I procrastinate, I know why but I just need to managae my time better and get over it!!!

    I need to stop waiting for the right moment to complete my tasks and get done with them right away. I usually begin to do my homework but it’s hard for me to finish it because I get distracted or caught up in other things. I need to prioritize my assignments, plan them, schedule them and just get to it.

    i usually procastinate because i don’t feel like getting things done cause im simply lazy. haha. i always get my work done at the end though. If its really important i won’t let it go for a while, but if it’s something little i’ll wait a while. In order for me to stop i need to buckle down and just get things done before last min.

    1. I usually procrastinate because I usually find something more appealing to do and “put off” the other activity knowing I have time.

    2. To fix my problem I have to realize if its done, its over with, no more worrying about it, and it’s working so far.

    1. I procrastinate because I like the last minute rush. haa, sad but kind of true!

    2. To fix my procrastination problem I need to time manage myself better to fit everything in my daily routine and have no excuse to leave it for the next day.

    1. i procrastinate when i have something more appealing to do or am not interested or feel it is not important to me to get it done right away.

    2. to fix my problem i need to stay focus, give myself a time limit, make goals, and find something appealing and interesting to the project.

    1.i procrastinate when things seem boring to me and im not feeling up to doing a certain thing even though i know it has to be done , i always tend leave it for last minute.
    2. to overcome this i have to start pushing myself to do what i need to do and try and make it intresting in whatever im doing so i can get the task done.

    1. I procrasinate sometimes because I have more important things to do. If the task at hand is boring then that doesnt really help either.

    2. To overcome this I can find interest in whatever I’m doing no matter how boring it is. The quicker I have to worry about.

    I usually find myself procrastinating when its something i really dont want to do. I just push it aside and end up waiting last minute to do it. Thats a bad thing because then theres less time to do the actual project or task. Its better to just get a head start on something and get it over with. Its less stressful. So thats what im going to do, just start things earlier so that i have more time.

    1. I sometimes procrasinate because I find better things to do or I jus don’t feel like doing something that i know I should be doing.
    2. To overcome this I can try to focus more on what is important and not worry about the irrelevant things.

    1. There is many reason why i procrastinate.
    due to the fact that i am very busy and i put importana things first.
    and when i have time i tend to use it for relaxation. Or other times
    i donttake the task seriously

    2. I think to cover come procrastination is to write a ‘to do’
    list and organize it by whats more important. and mange your time wisely
    and you will be able to complete everything in a timely maner

    I’m lazy and that’s mainly what stops me from getting things done. I find that when my life is organized physically, and mentally, I have more of a “push” to get things done.

  17. 17    Lysha November 14, 2008 at 1:35 pm

    i need to stop putting things off and saying ill do them later. i need to organize a little better. but when im procrastinating its usually something i don’t want to do..so sometimes you just have to do things you don’t want.

  18. 18    GR November 14, 2008 at 1:39 pm

    procrastination is something i do often when theres other things i want to do and im lazy.
    i can overcome this by doing things right when i get them.

    I procrastinate too much. I put things off for the last minute to do something thats not as important as what i have to do. I can be lazy at times. I can change this by doing the task as soon as i get them.

  20. 20    T.D November 25, 2008 at 1:43 pm

    I am a big procrastinator. I wait until the last minute to finish my homework, clean my room, etc. I need to work on that because it causes me to rush and sometimes not even finish what i need to finish on time.

  21. 21    LC December 16, 2008 at 12:50 pm

    I think procrastination is a bad habit becuase once you wait until the last minute you are screwed. I am a procrastinator but not too much. I like to get my stuff done and move on, not wait until the last minute.

  22. 22    BSF December 16, 2008 at 12:52 pm

    I do procrastinate alot. I know i can get stuff done at the last minute even if im in a rush. I hate waiting until the last minute to do things but at the last minute it just happens. Everyone procrastinates a little because most people are lazy about some things in life.
