Anyone got any motivating pictures or images that I can stick on my desktop

I often procrastinate too, and it sucks.

as someone touched on - don't work on your computer at home where you can chat on MSN, listen to music, and just generally dick around...

if you want to get something done, go to your school library or something

i procrastinate myself pretty bad sometimes... i usually start something a few days before (not night before) but don't really accomplish much, then i blow through the last 80% of it the night before... 80% average last year not too bad... (first year university)

last year i never used the library, now i go there on my off-periods (i only have 10 hours of school a week :/ ) and i can accomplish a lot in an hour...

Nice post Mitsy :D

lmao i got to school today expecting to open up my email, open up the attachment(my paper) and print it, since my printer is fucked, and since i used an opensource writer instead of word, because i have a virus that deleted MSOffice and im too lazy to give a fuck, there wasnt a single program that could open the file. i went to open it in IE and i got 45 pages of hexadecimal bulllshit. so here i go tonight with the bright idea to just copy paste the paper into an email, copy paste email to word @ school and print away. if only i had thought of that last night. must have been the exhaustion that stopped me from thinking of it-_-

haha gene in high school we were PROS at deadline dodging

my favorite trick was always saving the document onto a diskette, then holding up a magnet to it and telling the teacher your printer is broken so you brought it on diskette, then she puts it in her computer, oh noes disk got corrupted T.T i guess i'll save and bring it again tomorrow >

or writing a computer program that takes random letters of a rough draft and sends the ASCII value into the random character range, thus rendering it unreadable but clearly showing some semblance of the english language

sometimes i swear we put more effort into dodging the deadline than writing the paper would have taken. it was almost an art form for us

I didn't do shit in Highschool but got the best grades of my year. It didn't work out like that in university. Some subjects that required 200hr really did require 200 freakin hours (1500 pages to read and none was redundant etc.). Pwnd the classes that only took a few key points to undertsnd the whole subject. But flunked the boring, grinding theories. At work I dont procasthethig# i'm stuck there from 8-17hr so why not get it done.

I procrastinate in college. It's working out ok but the stress does get to you sometimes.
Still, a lot of work I finish and turn in a product I am honestly not willing to support.. ie - i put out shit. The grades are still there, I get C's and B's but on anything I give half a fuckin effort on, I am usually pretty sad if I don't make an A -_-;; But I honestly do believe I am a fuckin prodigy...
Yes, egotistical too, but it's ok if it's true.

laziness and geniousness go hand in hand - as we get more technologically advanced, we get lazier

Since procrastination is the cause of not doing (rather than merely the lack of action), simply doing that which is being procrastinated may not be psychologically possible while the mental obstacle or technical problem causing the procrastination is in place. Right?


No

the fun doesnt come from having nothing to do, it comes from having something to do and not doing it :D

dude honestly dont give me that BS. I gave you my arguement and all you have to say is "no" if you dont have anything to backup your reason for saying that dont post. It's people like you that piss me off the most on this forum.

p.s. i hope that eating alone thing wasn't meant to be funny.

funny, I dont see an arguement until now...

I'd go more in depth for u but I have formation in 10 minutes

ps. hate me or whatever u like, but one thing I definitely think is true is the truth hurts, not many ppl like to look at it...and the fact that u got heated in any form from what I said says something to me..

I wish I could find a way to not procrastinate. So far, the only way for me to not is simply not being in school, which is pretty nice, to be honest. I just lack the motivation to get things done early. Things are normally going on in that week or two period in which I have to do things, and I put pleasure before work in most cases. If I begin to work on something, I normally space out for five hours and don't get anything done. Doing it at the last minute really forces me to focus on the project, thus I can actually complete it.

I once wrote a paper (2 1/2 pages, not sure on word count) 15 minutes before my next class started, and I was the only person in the class to get an A. I think I got a 97% on it. Having things like that happen just further demotivate me from starting early. I guess when I finally fail due to procrastination I'll stop procrastinating so much, and until then, I'll deal with the worry and such the last week before something is due.
I'm never gonna know you now \ But I'm gonna love you anyhow.

I dont procrastinate, but the way things work out, I almost never have to actually sit down and study at my desk, or do homework etc... All through high school and now into 2nd year university, I have had less work than my sister two years younger than me...

So here's a tip from me to make the work load easier -- Make time. When you're sitting on the bus going home, when you're waiting for class to start, when you're in between games in starcraft - Just study a little, or do some homework. I mean, maybe you'd rather sleep on the bus... But then, compare sleeping on the bus to playing games at home. Which would you rather do? Basically, try to minimize the amount of time that you're just sitting down waiting for something. That way when you can actually do things (like play games, chat, go out), your homework is already 20%, 50% or even completely finished.

For example, I take Japanese, and we have vocabulary tests every other class. While at work I have a list of the vocabulary in my pocket and whenever I'm not busy, I pull it out and just repeat a few words at a time. By the end of the night I've finished my studying for my exam, and I technically haven't used any of my time to do it (since I did it in my 'working time').

Cheers~
