I too am and have been always been a procrastinator. It's a problem I have to work on continuously. I have times of action and positivity and are able to get things done and then other times I achieve nothing for days. Only a looming deadline can motivate me. My high school and college years were the worst. Most assignments were done the night before they were due and this would happen week after week. I hate the education system and thankfully our children have never had to go through that and have come out all the more stronger for it.
This Ted talk, which is one of the most popular ever done, it's basically my college years.
