Down Nh Noobs Posted May 21, 2009 Posted May 21, 2009 Well guys, I don't know if any of you procrastinate much as I do but damn I seem to be doing it whenever I have hw or things like that. Strangely, I sometimes do em right away while other times, I do other things then do it at the last minute. I just want to hear some suggestions from people who don't have this problem and from people who did but overcome it so post comments that helps you focus and prioritise your works first. My IRL friend told me few advices, he said reward yourself after all your work. That helped me a bit not much because I thought why not reward myself first and then do work.. So I need some desperate help doing my work first then doing w/e after. :ahhh:
Scotty|w0rst Posted May 21, 2009 Posted May 21, 2009 Just start it. Once you start it, you will do it.
I C0NN0R I Posted May 21, 2009 Posted May 21, 2009 I just learned to realize that it feels a lot more satisfying to do your work, do it well, then relax, then it does to relax all u want then half-ass your work.
Pot Posted May 21, 2009 Posted May 21, 2009 Usually I smoke bongs as a reward. I'll sit down, do an assignment, say to myself ok once i get halfway through this assignment I'll reward myself with a session. Works like a charm :)
d72 Posted May 21, 2009 Posted May 21, 2009 I do :D Can't help it, I always do everything before everything important :S
Steroids Posted May 21, 2009 Posted May 21, 2009 At school I "never" did any homework or that sht. Im very bad when it comes to this, even now I put things off till they "HAVE" to be done this instance.
Brandon Posted May 21, 2009 Posted May 21, 2009 I'm good at procrastinating everything I do. Whether it's my english research paper and presentation to something small like cleaning my room. I always wait till the last minute possible to get it done, but it's just the way I am. If I were you though, I'd try to focus on not letting yourself procrastinate it. You take time to post how you continually do it, but use that time and come up with a plan to just get your shit done so you won't have to do it after, and it's always a huge weight lifted off your shoulders when you do get it done first.
Madslash Posted May 21, 2009 Posted May 21, 2009 I procrastinate. Can't help it. Something you could try is making yourself think that the assignment is due earlier, or parts of it are due at an earlier time. I doubt it would work, but it's worth a try.
Nick. Posted May 21, 2009 Posted May 21, 2009 Here is my advice. Don't just have one thing to do in your time. Overcomplicate yourself, to make work appear like its nothing. This is why I don't have much time for Runescape though :)
Light Posted May 21, 2009 Posted May 21, 2009 just do the work in the first place tbf i got kicked out of college for procrastinating so tbf just do the work its so much more benifical in the long run
Steal Posted May 21, 2009 Posted May 21, 2009 Do it in school if you have time. Or do it the class before it's due (small homework assignments). That's how I do it.
