Procrastinators Anonymous is a fellowship of men and women who share their experience, strength and hope with each other that they may solve their common problem and help others to recover from chronic procrastination.

My first post!

Ok I found this website and thought I would give it a try. It is almost 11 here, and I need to have my house decent, shower, groceries done, and be back home by 3. Hmm, that sounds too vague. Ok. It is the top of the 1st hour, in this hour I will wash the dishes, sweep the floor, strip the beds, and vacuum the playroom. I would also like to put all the laundry in the laundry room. 2nd hour: Shower, clean off cabinets and dust. 3rd hour: Go grocery shopping and come home. 4th hour: Put away groceries and put something in the crockpot. From reading some articles, that sounds like time binging on my overdue housework. Ok well we will see. I'll check in later. I also have paperwork to do for school, and to study for a test I am taking. (I wonder if I have procrastinated studying for it? I've had six months and the test is next week! :)

Long Post! See ya at the zoo!

Hello!

Welcome, zoocrew, good to see you. Let us know how you get on with the bookending. Personally, I found it works best if I just focus on one job at a time, and bookend that. Mostly I don't feel the need to bookend here anymore - I did it when I first started experimenting with it, and it works. I'll still post a bookend if I get stuck though, but getting stuck is thankfully happening less often. It will be good to hear your experience with it, and how you get on with the other techniques suggested here (or anything else you come up with!).

Welcome to the board. I am

Welcome to the board. I am new here also and notice this board does not move too quickly.
I try to check in every couple of days.
I have been doing everything but the important things.

I know we've posted to the same thread before, but I don't know if we've 'spoken'. You're right, the board does move slowly, but it does seem to be picking up. It's fairly new, and it'll take a few people posting to get it going. It appears to have been set up by pro who seems to have disappeared off the face of the earth - I don't know if that was a deliberate decision, or if pro is procrastinating about coming back here, or what! Anyway, it's here, and those of us who have made use of it have found it helpful, and I hope you do too. I would love to see it getting more active, so we can all share ideas and support each other.
