Why We Procrastinate

Found something that I can really relate to

while casually browsing the net like nobody business

sharing it here...

Before we can solve the problem of procrastination we must understand why we do it. There are a few basic reasons:

1. Feeling overwhelmed with a situation.
2. Given up hope that a situation can be changed or affected.
3. Afraid of failing.
4. Too “Busy” to get the really important things done.
5. Can’t make a decision.
6. Overworked, tired.
7. Want to avoid work you don’t like.

Each of these can be reduced down to the pleasure/pain principle which says that we do things to gain pleasure and to avoid pain. What follows is a method to overcome procrastination on the things that matter and to jettison excess baggage in your to-do list that only serves to weigh you down.
