Procrastination. The bane of productivity, the thief of time, the reason why you’re currently reading this instead of doing that thing we both know you need to do. . . .
If it makes you feel any better, you’re not alone. Studies estimate that 15% to 25% of adults habitually procrastinate. And according to some very serious researchers who actually did their jobs on time, the average person wastes four hours a day procrastinating at work. Four. That’s not even procrastination anymore; that’s a part-time job.
And I’m no exception either. If procrastination were an Olympic sport, I’d be standing on the podium, wearing the gold medal, humming the national anthem of Avoidistan.
