When procrastinating, at least let it be Creative

if you choose Wisely!

another idea i just got from a site:
Procrastinate when you know its wrong to do the thing you’re about to do!This is where we all need to learn better procrastination. Just put off eating that piece of cake until later. Wait a few more days to go to the casino, or to get together with that friend that always gets you into trouble. Anytime you are thinking about doing something you shouldn’t be doing, just say, “I’ll get to that later.”

the above is from this site: http://www.buzzle.com/editorials/5-25-2005-70506.asp

I read an interesting article online a few months ago that was helpful to me… It wasn’t quite the same type of thinking that’s in the sites I listed in my last entry (though similar)... I’m not sure how well I can articulate it, but here goes…

if you find yourself resisting doing something, then when you procrastinate, at least do it by doing something ELSE that is also important… Then perhaps the action will get you going, and motivated, plus at least you will have gotten something done.

For example. If I am procrastinating on writing an essay for a grad school app… perhaps I can pay bills instead. still productive… and I’m being creative by USING my procrastination to get Something done versus nothing…
