I can't consider myself a god of procrastination despite being quite involved with it's noticeably alluring characteristics. In this fairly subjective article I'm going to be talking about what procrastination can do to you, and why it has few benefits compared to what you're putting into it.
There are people like me, the half-procrastinators, who do their job of putting off work, but sometimes can't bring themselves to actually do the work when the deadline hits. It's an odd form of mental suggestion where your brain just can't allow you to do things ahead of time. I'd like to think there's something else wrong with people who procrastinate too much, something that can be changed about their lives that'll allow them to actually get work done. In most situations, that isn't the case. You simply have to force yourself to work, do your best to break free from your brain's urge to watch videos and post on social media.
Procrastinators can still fulfill their requirements, whether for work or school, it's about actually measuring your time, even when you don't feel like it, set aside at least an hour or two and devote it to work. By the end of it you'll feel fulfilled, ready to enjoy the rest of your day. Sometimes it *can* be that easy!
It's not worth staying up late to finish an assignment you had a week to do. It's never going to amount to good quality work unless you've put the effort into it. Even if you're a procrastinator, you can find a way to soothe your urge to ignore work. Try to make work fun, for starters, set goals, aim high, working to achieve something can give incentive, and that incentive can sometimes be enough to progress through one's ignorance of their work.
Procrastination is meant to eventually lead to work being done, a full procrastinator knows what they're doing, and how to do it, even scheduling their days to perfectly fit in whatever they'd like to do that day along with their work. Essentially, that's what procrastination's meant to be, if it has any benefit at all, it forces you to schedule yourself. If you must procrastinate, at least make a schedule, putting things off forever won't work in the long-run. There will always be things you have to do, and it's better to be healthy about your methods of doing work early on before it starts to bite you in the butt.
Even writing this was put off, it's tough to have obligations, whether you like what obligations you have or not, it can be tough to follow through. In any case, work on yourself, do your work to the best of your ability. It's not as simple as saying 'I need to stop putting it off' and for two days you binge your work, you need long-term results! Build a schedule and work hard, anyone can break free from procrastination's grip.
