Isn't that a quote we've heard all to often? How amazing it is that even I use it while I am busy procrastinating, making it a joke that oh so true. These past few months I have been bombarded with soooo many assignments and procrastination just wasn't the answer. Yet somehow I found so many ways to pass my time. You're probably a victim of procrastination as well, and quite frankly I want to move away from being its victim. But how does one STOP procrastinating.
Let me first share with you what it is that I most often that is not in my daily schedule... you can compare and you can share yours too:
I'm a game junkie and recently I discovered that greatest game that I have ever played... Well, maybe not greatest is its pretty great and addictive too. Its called Bubble Safari on Facebook; people who are my contacts on Facebook are probably frantically nodding their heads in agreement because of the numerous requests they have received from me.

This has to be the most time consuming procrastinating tool I uitlise.
But generally here is the program in brief:
I'll spend my days looking for anything interesting on Google, in between I will chat on Whatsapp and on Facebook Chat and i'll tweet here and there. When I find nothing interesting I will go on people's profile and start looking at their pictures. When that gets boring I will day dream a little, then have lunch, a little nap because i'm tired. more chatting and more Bubble Safari. After hours it get worse because of the demon called TV, moving from one Soapie to another, Days of our Lives, 7de Laan, News(constructive time use :)), Isidingo, Generations, Muvhango and then its generally too late to do anything.
Its all very ridiculous if you ask me, because at the end of the day I have to power to overcome my own useless habits and utilize my time the best way I can.
Looking at it from a serious point of view procrastination is always triggered by something. By that I mean that there is a cause for procrastinating. It can either be cause you are lazy, stress or you lack motivation, just to name a few, but whatever the reason maybe it is the first step to overcoming procrastination. The video below tells you how you can overcome procrastination:
Here are a few other references for your convenience on overcoming procrastination that I have found to make sense and have assisted me with my bad habit of procrastination:
