Why do today what you can put off till tomorrow?

November 11, 2009 By Seth Leave a Comment

I'm curious how many of you are procrastinators out there.  I heard a really great list today of why people procrastinate.  See if you can find your reason on the list:

  • You aren't good at separating the urgent from the important
  • You allow others to dictate your schedules by interrupting you
  • You feel overwhelmed, and you don't know where to begin
  • You're waiting for the right moment
  • You have a fear of failure or of success
  • You haven't developed decision-making skills
  • You haven't developed good organizational skills
  • You are a perfectionist

I think I'm not good at separating the urgent from the important, I allow others to interrupt my tasks, and I'm a perfectionist.  In the words of G.I. Joe, "Now [I] know, and knowing is half the battle."  Hopefully I can begin tackling this and become less of a procrastinator!  What about you?
