What is the DNA of procrastination? I feel as though if I could figure out the chemical imbalance that causes me to procrastinate some things and not others, I could defeat procrastination itself. It's not directly proportional to the importance, convenience, or joy received when the task is completed. For example, I've had a new hard drive for my laptop sitting in my living room for at least 3 weeks and I'm just now getting it replaced and running again. It has been greatly inconvenient to not have my computer working for the last 6 weeks or so, but for some reason, I just couldn't get myself to complete that particular task. (For the record, it only took about 10 minutes of hands-on time and now I'm just waiting for it to format.)
I suppose if I could "crack" procrastination, I'd be a rich woman. Well, one more thing off my list! Now, if only I could get my bike to the shop.
