Procrastination

I am blogging tonight because I am procrastinating. I have a task ahead that I am just dreading and what better way to avoid it. Even if it's only a few minutes. So naturally this makes me think about procrastination, why I do it and how.

Time for a list:

What makes me procrastinate?

1. The task seems too tedious. I am more of a big picture person.
2. The task seems too big and I don't know how to approach it or where to start.
3. The task just bores me. Writing a paper about the marketing challenges of Gillette, for example.

What I do instead of what I should be doing (avoidance techniques)

1. Clean
2. Google subjects that I wouldn't research if I weren't procrastinating
3. Post a blog (apparently)

So if your procrastinating, tell me what you do!
