One of the things that I have come to discover is that we did not just do anything for doing sake. There is always an understanding towards everything we do whether positive actions or negative actions depending on how we see it. For some people, they have a positive understanding about something and that helps them to make wise and right decisions. For some people, they have a negative understanding about something and it actually pushes them to do the wrong thing.
One of the common negatives habits that a whole lot of people are constantly facing is the aspect of procastination. Procastination is really deadly. I suffer from procastination for the past 5 years before recently I begin to adjust to it. I personally have seen procastination affect me in my academics, in my finances and even in my health.
I have been at the other side of it and I understand that it is not only me that is in that shoe. I strongly believe a whole lot of people are also suffering from the bad habits of procastination. But guess what? If you can properly manage and understand how procastination, it can effectively help them in how they conquer the act of procrastination.
The first question we need to ask ourselves is why do people procastinate? That has been the question that has been running through a lot of people's mind. Most of the time, people always procrastinate because they set something above other in order of priority. Probably for some people, that which they need to do now might not give them the instant result they desire and so they believe it will be worth to do it later.
Another reason why a lot of people procastinate is the fact that they always think they have time. One of the things I have come to understand about time is the fact that it is scarce. A lot of people mindset is there is still time and so they believe that task or action they should take, they can take it some other time. The truth is that, there is not always time. The tomorrow you thought will come might later end up not coming and that is why it is difficult to live
These two major reasons I make mention of is tied down to what I called the lack of understanding to manage time and proper planning. A lot of people that procastinate do so because they are not actually been able to manage their time effectively and so it leads them to procastinate. They lack the understanding to do that which needs to be done at the present hour and vice versa. I have been in that shoe several times and I can actually testify to it.
If you are not able to overcome procastination, it will leads you to have low productivity and success rate. Why? Those things you should do, you will not be able to do it because you actually keep postponing it. At the end of the day, those tasks that you should have carried out which should have given you success, you didn't later do it.
The most popular question that people always ask is how can I overcome procastination? Well the good news is that it is not really hard as we always think. Procastination can be overcome if you put some certain structures in place. The first thing is for you to be a now person. What do I mean by that? Always make sure that you always carry out any actions you should do now instead of procrastinating it. Procastination will not settle it. Be a now someone. Always if probably the reason why you are procrastinating is because you see those tasks as been big, break it down to smaller version. It will really help you to deal with procastination.

Dang it!
I was going to write a post about the science of procrastination.
Of course, I have no idea how to over come it.
