Procrastination

Being a college senior tells me that it time for reflection. As I look back at assignments that I have been assigned and the time it took me to actually complete the assginments the time in between is just ridiculous. Why do I procrastinate so much when it comes to doing work that I have to do. Of course I know that my life would be a lot less stressful, but I still do it.

For example, I had a assignement given to me two days ago. I could have easily done the assignment when I got out of class, that night, or the next day but I didn't. I waited until thirty minutes before the class to do it. The more I put the assignment off the most stimulated my brain became. This rush came over me! My conscious kept reminding me that I had to do this assignment, but something else inside of me kept saying all of this time that I still had left.

I don't want to go through this semester of school being a procrastinator, and I don't want to do through my life being a procrastinator. Don't get me wrong, I get jobs done. On the other hand, I believe that my life will feel more complete and I will have a stronger sense of completion if I change this aspect about myself. The only thing holding me back is I don't know where to start.
