Ahh, procrastination. The thing that prevents people from actually doing the things they really need to do. It could be so extreme in some cases where people wait until the absolute last moment they get to complete a task. It's not that procrastinators are lazy, they just like to stress themselves out and wait until the last minute to do things... Okay maybe they are lazy. But on the contrary, we are not here to discuss the levels of laziness inhabited by procrastinators. We are here to learn the things a procrastinator would never say. If you've never said any of these phrases, you should probably consider the fact that you may be a ginormous procrastinator.
1. I finished it early!
Let's face it, whether you have chores to do, essays to write, presentations to make, or really anything on your agenda that requires effort, you probably haven't finished it early if you're a procrastinator. In fact, you may have not even finished it at all.
2. On time is ten minutes late.
Have you ever been early to an event you've had in your calendar for the past five weeks? Me neither. It appears as though procrastinators wait until the last minute to get ready for the day's plans. To anti-procrastinators, being on time is a must. In fact, it's even better to be early, because being early is on time, and being on time is late... which means being late is SUPER late... oops.
3. A problem?? I'll be proactive and solve it right away!
Is problem solving even a thing to procrastinators? It's as if anytime an issue arises, it's time for a Netflix binge and a nap. That solves problems... right?
4. I've been studying for two weeks, I'm so ready for this test!
Are you really ready for anything if you're a procrastinator? You probably meant to study multiple times, no doubt about it. But, odds are you were having too much fun playing with Snapchat filters and ended up putting off studying until five minutes before the test.
5. I'm going to stop watching Netflix and start doing my work.
With entertainment being so readily available for just $7.99 a month, procrastinators are suckers for Netflix. Odds are they've told themselves they would stop watching Netflix three seasons ago to do their work, but just didn't. Never will you ever see a procrastinator put work before Netflix.
6. I can't take a nap right now, I have things to do first.
After Netflix, sleep is another love of procrastinators. Why use effort to do things when you can cozy up in your bed to catch some nice Z's and dream about Zac Efron or Jennifer Lawrence?
