I am just 66, and I am going to get around to doing it any day now.

Never have and never will. After all let’s bear in mind that whether we like it or not, procrastination is the thief of time while diarrhea waits for no man!

An ex boyfriend could not overcome his procrastination and that is why he is an “ex”.

Actually, yes. When I was a kid my Mom made me a pillow that said, “Never do anything today that you can put off till tomorrow.” That’s how bad I was! As an adult I finally decided that I needed to do whatever right at them moment I think of it. It works. It bugs the crap out of me when people say their going to do something “First thing in the morning,” or whatever, and they never get it done. Important things too. Makes me wonder what in the hell is wrong with them, that they haven’t figured out that they won’t do it first thing in the morning…..

@Dutchess_III – i know, it’s terrible!!! I really want to quit…i suppose i must just make that decision to stop it and then follow through even if i hate it!

Dutchess_III's avatar

That’s right @NaturallyMe . Just have to do it.

@NaturallyMe You will probably find that when you start getting things done before due and feel the sense of pride in that accomplishment, you won’t hate it at all. Quite the opposite.

@ETpro – i’m sure that’ll be the case! I dunno what’s so difficult about just getting into the habit, haha. :)
