Hello

Hi everyone,

I am very lucky to have found this site. I'm in my first year of law school, and while last semester went well, this one is feeling like a disaster. The last five weeks are going to be very interesting, as I've not been doing the reading for some time now.

Slowly Giving Up


 I have almost given
up. I don’t believe I can change anymore. I’m not even new to this site. I
signed up ages ago, but obviously stopped posting after a short period of time.


4 months later...

I feel like there is this negative force in my life that tries to bring me down. Procrastination is it's right-hand man at accomplishing this task. Yesterday, I more than likely failed my second finance test because I haven't been studying as much as I needed to. It's not hard stuff... just not easy and requires the time I haven't been able to give it. Plus, I thought it was a week later than it was. Again, my failure to do a simple thing like look at the school schedule during the break or allocate my time during spring break to study. This isn't hard stuff.

I am stuck and depressed

I haven't been on the site in a while, so that is probably part of it. I haven't checked in, telling myself I didn't need to. HA! That was NOT smart! Need good thoughts and encouragement (especially to check in).

 

Thanks all. 

 

Love you guys and girls! 

Mental Breakdown

frog_princess: new and overwhelmed!

I need to be here so much!!  I've been struggling with procrastination for all of my adult life and have stints of time (2-3 week) where i am able to stay on track, but then I will go back to my old ways.  I want to utilize this site to gain support, post daily lists as well as work on bigger projects that I've been putting off.  

Hello everyone, new here

Hello to all of you in PA. 

I'm new here, just joined over the weekend. My name's Celeste and I am a chronic procrastinator. Emphasis on the "chronic." I really, really want to do something about my procrastination, because it's ruining my life bit by bit, but to be honest, I have no idea where to start. Or how to start. What do I do first? What steps do I take? Will somebody please lay a curse on me or something so I won't end up procrastinating on working on my procrastination?

Inevitable

So, a day after returning to work from an all-too-brief vacation, I
received "the talk" from the company President that I knew would come eventually. My turn around
time for case reports is "unacceptable" and my contract will not be renewed
unless there is a significant improvement in short order.  This was
accompanied by an incongruous statement of how supportive my clients
are.  Um, if it's not the clients, then it's just you guys that are
unhappy with my work? Well, it's their company. I was also offered the

Re-intro

Hi,

I haven't been around for a while but I am sure still procrastinating away! I was active in the group about four years ago, and plan to be around again.

A productive day to all!

Midterm Coming up. My thought process.

Ok PA, I have a physics of the Earth Midterm coming up this Tuesday. I have not yet started studying for it and I couldn't even finish the last assignment because I didn't know how to do it. I get lost in class and I haven't kept up.

 

Right now I feel like even if I do study that I will just fail anyways. I don't think there is any way that I will pass the midterm.

Then I read this blog by a fellow procrastinator on this site:

Hello Fellow Procrastinators!!

I've experienced some pretty good success in my life, but
far short of what I should have due to crippling procrastination.  I absolutely have to change something.  I tend to think in bullet points, so here's  a little background about me:

 

- I'm the VP for a national tour company and travel
often.  

- Was lead partner in a partnership to successfully buy
and renovate a 178 apartment complex

Havi & Shiva Nata thread

I've been hearing a lot in the chatbox lately about Havi and Shiva Nata, so I thought I'd make a thread for discussion of the Pirate Queen and her shivanautical brain-training. If you've got questions, want to know if anyone's tried a particular product of hers, or want to share experiences, fire away :)

I have a Problem - Hello

This is probably a form of procrastination to do the list of things I need to get done, but here it is… if life was an exam I would get a huge fat red “F” for failure. Procrastination is a disease I am going to end, because I am living a life as if I were not trying at all. I am putting off losing weight because there’s tomorrow, I am putting off studying because there’s tomorrow, and then I am putting off college credits because it’s too overwhelming to do more than 12 credits… I withdrew to 8 now.
