If there was a DSM IV diagnosis for procrastination, I'd have that diagnosis.
What IS it? I've read about procrastination and tips and tools for dealing with it, and still I do it.
Case in point: I've had billing/invoices I've needed to do for a couple of weeks. I originally said I wanted them done by May 6.
It's May 15 and I just got them done.
I feel like I can breathe.
I think of all the time I spent thinking about them for the last 10 days and I want to VOMIT. It's such a huge tremendous waste of time. To worry about stuff to do. What IS that? Why not just DO it?
And to be clear, I am talking about an activity that I should do SO I CAN GET PAID MONEY. If that's not motivation, I don't know what is.
It's one of my least favorite characteristics.
I am the same way! It's completely futile and I make myself crazy!
