Exactly… that’s what a lot of procrastinators do. I think we each have subconscious reasons for behaving the way we do. I see procrastination as being linked to perfectionism… that a perfectionism wants things to be done perfectly, and that will take a lot of time, or perhaps s/he doesn’t believe s/he’s got what it takes to do that task yet… so then it gets put off, until there is time… and that may be a while! I’d love to see comments of what others see as the cause of their procrastination.

It is, however, much easier if you take the time to not only set up the system in the beginning so it’s very easy to use, but also tinker with it when it gets too left-handed to use.

Because people will just give up and say, “I have no discipline” as if discipline is something you can have, or something you can learn. But how do you learn discipline?

Instead, I find it more useful to think of this as a habit. Then it’s doable: you can form habits. I’ve formed many habits: running, quitting smoking, organizational habits, clean-as-you-go, waking early, etc. … and though it’s not always an easy process, it’s fairly achievable. Think of this as a habit, focus on it for a month, and you can do it … you don’t need discipline.

“Don’t Put It Down, Put It Away.”

(I believe this is attributed to Janeane Garofalo, but don’t quote me on that.)

Sorry.
