procrastination and distractions

Distractions and procrastination

               Every single human being has encountered procrastination at some point in their lives. For me, it’s a daily thing. I always save stuff for the last minute. My parents always tell me to get stuff done early and id feel better about it but I just don’t. when I do finish things early I feel great and it a very rewarding feeling. However, this seldom happens. Most of the time I wait to the things I have to. Weather that’s homework or household responsibilities around the house. I always wait to clean my car, to clean my room, to do the dishes, to do homework, etc. I blame it on the fact that I am lazy but distractions also have a large part of it to.

               When I am doing homework I tend to look at my phone A LOT. Just in that last sentence I’ve checked it at least twice. Also when I do my homework I’d rather do anything but that. I’m constantly checking to see what the rest of my family is up to. I can get my work done if I want to but to be honest, I really don’t want to get my work done. Also on the weekends I have more distractions to worry about. I play my Xbox on the weekends and I would much rather be playing that than doing homework or chores. You would think that would make me want to finish my work sooner but you would be wrong. I just sit there on my phone probably texting someone complaining that I have homework to do and that I’d rather be playing Xbox. I have procrastinated my whole life and, frankly, it hasn’t let me down yet. The last couple years however I’ve become less of a procrastinator and began doing my work instead of goofing around. I still procrastinate just one a less drastic of a level.
