Procrastination is the
thief of time - unknown
Dictionary.com
defines procrastination as “putting off or delaying, especially something
requiring immediate attention.” My
favourite definition is from Wikipedia. Wikipedia defines Procrastination as “the avoidance of
doing a task which needs to be accomplished. It is the practice of doing more
pleasurable things in place of less pleasurable ones, or carrying out less urgent
tasks instead of more urgent ones, thus putting off impending tasks to a later
time.” Sometimes, procrastination takes
place until the "last minute" before a deadline. People may
procrastinate work obligations, such as, completing a report or a specific
task, thereby leading to goals not being achieved and/or deadlines missed.
Procrastination can lead to feelings of guilt, inadequacy, depression and
self-doubt.
