I too am the worlds greatest procratinator. I've had a letter written for three weeks now that just needs a stamp. I will never get that stamp. I will finally give it to hubby to mail. I also have 2 graduation cards that have never been mailed. I just can't make myself do it.

Last month had to pay extra on the power bill cause I kept putting it off, not because I didn't have the money, I just didn't want to drive down to the power department.

Today I had to pay a late fee on my tag, because I hate where you have to go to buy a tag.

Does this sound familiar?

I make a daily list of things that I need to do and mark them off as I do them and this helps. I list everything from shower to make bed. When I can discpline myself to use this it works well. Most of the time it works, just been really down this past couple of weeks.

i`ll answer this tomorrow...... ;)

lol verymetal...thanks...I appreciate that...

sleepyErika...yes all that sounds very familiar...i've used an awesome planning system for about the last twenty years...and like you, when I can discipline myself to use it it works great!...but I'm quick about procrastinating about that too!...ugh...this is so frustrating.....cause i have the planning system, a PDA, and a Windows SmartPhone and I STILL can't get anything done!!!!!!!

sometimes i think i'm just lazy...but then I think about all the stuff I've done in the past and I know that's not it...i just don't know what to do about this procrastination problem of mine!!!!!

Meee ;(. I procrastinate important tasks putting them to the edge...everything.

I waited to return book to the library only when fine was given. I procrastinate to pay. I procrastinate for several months three hours calculation and additional hour to write...

I procrasitnate paying 10dollar bill, today finally sent a letter with some other payment... by luck found the stamp...

daily list helps...sometimes...

I'm glad they made stams self adhesive; it's just one less thing for me to do.

I'm actually in shock right now at how much I can relate to these posts... I put off returning library books even thought I live next to the library. I have now been turned into a debt collector for it... My parent's and boyfriend tell me all the time how lazy I am but I just know I'm not lazy... it's just almost physically impossible for me to do somethings, especially when I'm in such a down mood. Anyways, it was really refreshing to hear some thoughts similar to mine. (:

Count me in the crowd of procrastinators.

i put off doing things when im down,as i feel better i do it all in a rush ,then think wow i feel so much better why did i put that off instead of getting on and doing it !!then it all starts over again! still i do manage just not always in the same way as others,thats the way i look at it now.

i know about the library thing too...my son checked out two books about two years back...and they're still sitting on my credenza....every time he see's them he's like "YOU STILL HAVEN"T RETURNED those books...no wonder i can't check anything out at the library!!!"

Yeah well...idk...i just can't bring myself to take them to the library...WHY? IDK....

i have a hard time paying bills to...that's something I've always had trouble with...I finally decided just not to have bills so I guess that's better...I pay cash for everything and if I can't then I just don't get it...the only thing i've ever paid off was my first truck...and now the only thing i pay as soon as i get the bill is my new phone...but thats it...oh and...nope not even that...i just hate handing out money....

i guess it is nice knowing that i'm not alone...but I really wish i could get over this procrastination thing before school starts back at the end of the month!!!!...

guess maybe i should get off this computer...and start working on my task list....see y'all later.... :D

Hi,

I was going to reply to you a few days back but kept finding other things of lesser importance to do. Like staring into space, watching TV and so on.

Now I've got those important tasks under control I can reply! And say I've never been a procrastinator. How could I be? I'm always too busy to do the important things I should do first. I'm just busy is all.

Yeah. Right!!! Humans are excellent at procrastinating.

There is a procrastinator's website .. but it has been 'under construction' for years.

I plan to join the National Organization of Procrastinators as soon as I can get around to it. I hear it takes years to receive your membership card.

I think I will file a complaint .. one of these days.

hehehe Wandering Vet....

sounds like my website...it's been under construction for 2 years...and still is...recently misplaced the flashdrive with my logo on it and can't bring myself to work on it....

i have an excuse for everything don't i? DAMN!

Let me join the club. :)

I'm a prize procrastinator. Either that or I'm just plain lazy. Either way, it makes my life hell sometimes.
