Every time I put something off I pay a price.
I always wait till the last minute to do just about everything. I sit around telling myself that I have a few more days are hours to get thins done. The result..More work. I end up doing twice as much of what ever it may be big or small. Dishes, paper work, whatever. So why is it I keep doing this? I know it has become a habit for me and we all know those are hard to break. So i decided to try and find out why it is I wait. Every time I tell my self the classic I have more time bit in my head I stop and think about all the work I’m about to create. I think about the reason i don’t want to do what ever it may be at the time. I never really have a good reason for putting things off. The reasons I come up with are crazy. They make no sense what so ever. So I guess what I’m trying to say is I know I wait but I still don’t know why.

I wanted to do some research into procrastinators but I decided to put that off. Just kidding. What I found out is procrastinators are generally have issues of anxiety, low sense of self worth and a self defeating. But that’s not me at all. I like myself and I’m very calm, not anxious at all. So looking on I found that the area of the brain responsible functions such as planning, attention, and acts as a filter by decreasing distracting stimuli from other brain regions my not be working correctly. So should I look on and see what i can do to fix this or should I put that off too? I did..This damaged part of my brain is common in people with ADHD. I’m not that…So what now.
Here’s what i think. And Ive had time ti think about it because I haven’t done anything else. I think I do get distracted but not like those with ADHD. I tend to take the easy way out allot often resulting in more work for myself. I think this would be easier so lets do that. I think I even take short cuts in that thinking process. I think I just want everything to be simple. I know I’m not lazy I just want easy. Don’t we all?
