Web-surfing is my very favorite way to procrastinate, followed closely by reading inessential paper-and-ink stuff, recreational cooking, playing with my dog and watching mindless television. Things I'm likely to put off include doing my income taxes and other tasks involving bookkeeping; housework; and exercise in the wintertime.<BR/><BR/>When I do manage to overcome procrastination, it's because I offer myself a reward: "Do this Onerous Task for a half hour; then you can have a piece of dark chocolate." "Thirty more minutes and you can watch a half-hour of television." "Just get this part done, and then you can read some random-access blogs."LutheranChikhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02685566332651377907noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-14710344.post-1138671883360466542006-01-30T20:44:00.000-05:002006-01-30T20:44:00.000-05:00I don't know, but it seems like the only way I eve...I don't know, but it seems like the only way I ever manage to get anything done is when I've got something more important I'm <I>supposed</I> to be doing.Steph Youstrahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12799345194981358171noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-14710344.post-1138671702189646412006-01-30T20:41:00.000-05:002006-01-30T20:41:00.000-05:00I can see I have much in common with the rest of t...I can see I have much in common with the rest of the list, let me add, ahem, "yarn porn"--i.e. gazing and dreaming at yarn on the Internet (must keep one's credit card securely tucked away before embarking on this form of procrastination).Emilyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16102818359680439197noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-14710344.post-1138671575850282992006-01-30T20:39:00.000-05:002006-01-30T20:39:00.000-05:00I thought I was the QUEEN of procrastination, but ...I thought I was the QUEEN of procrastination, but apparently I have a lot of royal sisters (and brothers!) <BR/><BR/>My most common form of procrastinating is flitting - starting one task, remembering something else that needs to be done and starting that, making that phone call, returning to task #1, dropping it for a caffeine break, etc., etc., etc. <BR/><BR/>Things I put off the most: paying bills, writing, balancing my checkbook, writing, vacuuming, writing, making obligatory visits or calls, writing . . . (See a trend here? So why in heaven's name do I say that I love to write?!))<BR/><BR/>The best thing to do - is just do it.
