I''m the biggest procrastinator in the world. I still do it because I get away with it and usually do well with whatever project I am working. I do really well under pressure. It''s just a bummer that I have to get myself in a situation where there is pressure.

This is a trait of mine that I truly hope Amelia doesn''t get. It''s just not a good thing.

I so related to this. I work exceedingly well under pressure- I almost can''t get motivated to complete something unless there''s a deadline looming over my head. I figure that at least I know this and can plan accordingly.....

I can relate to you guys!

I procrastinate when I''m meant to be doing something easy that i know i can finish in a snap. I call it "living a smart and happy life doing other things beside that really boring lame thing i HAVE to do". My FI calls it procrastination. He says if it can be done now, then why not do it now?

I think with me, procrastination is linked with lack of motivation and excitement

I must say I''m guilty of this BIG TIME! I even procrastinate trying to get rid of this habit!

I do some of my best work under pressure and sometimes there''s nothing like the pressure of tough deadlines to bring my mind to razor sharp focus. Sounds like a nice excuse but it is still an excuse. I just don''t see everything as top priority and had got into trouble before cuz my ex-boss took everything as top priority (he was 40+ single, married to the job).

It''s still a problem habit but I kinda balanced it out by making sure that if I say I''ll get something done, I will...and with the level of quality expected of me.
