"I'll just do it tomorrow."

8 Stages of Procrastination As Told By Elliot Alderson
Vulture

Everyone procrastinates. I am certainly an expert, especially when it comes to tedious assignments I'd rather not do at all. I'm sure the procrastinator in all of you reading can understand the struggle, told by Mr. Robot's main character.

1. When the professor says, "Start early. You can't do this assignment the night before."

2. Sitting down to start the assignment even though you'll decide to put it off until tomorrow

But we know "tomorrow" really doesn't mean tomorrow.

3. After someone asks if you've started any of the assignments

Soon, maybe?

4. When you start working and realize you need a few hours break after 10 minutes of staring at the prompt

5. When you still haven't done anything, and the assignment is due the next morning

6. "Will I ever finish this?"


7. Finally getting everything done, even if it cost you a few hours of sleep

Who needs sleep anyway?

8. "I won't procrastinate next time."

Sure...but it's only a matter of time until the cycle starts again.

One of my biggest pet peeves is when someone does not try to help their self before asking others. How can someone else be expected to help you if you do not first do that yourself? I'm all about helping those that need it when the time comes, however whenever someone does not even attempt to help him or herself first then that becomes a huge problem. As we all have learned, people tend to take advantage of us in one way or another. I am sure we all read this short story when we were younger and it follows that same principle:
