Procrastination

I, like many on this college campus and around the world have this undesirable attribute known as procrastination.  I tend to like to wait until the night before something is due to work on it.  Or on the rare occasion I will finish an assignment the day or even the hour it is due.  For example, this post is due in 1 hour and 12 minutes.  I find that I do this for a few reasons.  One being that I get easily side tracked.  Like now, I am sitting in the library and no one is around and yet I can't help but to look around me to see if something does happen.  I want to be the first to know if something changes around me if it will be more interesting than what I am doing.  This is why I am still working on the RL Wolfe case study.  I, like others, found the holiday to be just another day to sit around and watch TV instead of work on the three case studies that I have due this week.  This also reflects on some of my fellow classmates blogs.  I tend to find a lot of time to do things that I enjoy and push off things that I don't.  I can't imagine what it would be like for me if I had to work a 40 hour week and raise children like so many of you do.  I must take a quick moment to commend all of the parents in this class who have the time for so many things.  I guess that is part of why I chose to go directly into my MBA right out of my undergraduate degree.  That and the fact that I had very little interest in getting into the real world and the economy didn't help.  Which is interesting because I just remembered how I used to like working over the summers because I would be spending so much time working and getting paid and didn't have to think about work when I left.  Yet when the actual task of getting a job and accepting the real world comes, I fight tooth and nail to keep it at bay.  I really hope this changes once I get my masters and go to find a job in the real world, advertising if possible.  Well I guess I have bored everyone sufficiently.  Just so you know, only 1 hour and 2 minutes before these are due.  Back to my original topic though, procrastination is a bit of a detriment usually but sometimes it gives me the added time I need to get away from something so that when I return I have a clearer mind to be able to complete the task better.  Other times its just a big waste of time.  One hour left!!!!
