A Procrastinator’s Perspective

What you should NOT be thinking!

I have a hard deadline at work in two days. I should probably start working on it today to give myself some time to relax tomorrow.

Oh damn!! I have that presentation on Wednesday as well, Oh God, the whole team is gonna be there!

Hmmm, I should probably start preparing my applications for grad schools, when was the deadline again?

Grad schools, hmm, let’s check how my test scores are faring, damn, are they good enough? Do I have to re-take my tests? sh*t.

Let’s check out my LinkedIn feed…..Damn all these people are doing so well, should I also post on LinkedIn? How many likes would I get?

Likes…I always wanted to open a YouTube channel, I would KILL it, I would be so different from those cringe commentators and vloggers online!!

Wait! those online courses!! Crap!! I forgot I’m only halfway through those online courses I purchased 6 months back, I remember bragging to my friends about how they would “give me an edge”.

Friends…I should talk to my friend, let's see what he’s up to, Can’t be much, after all, he’s just like me, the idiot!

Hey, bro wassup? Oh, you got promoted? Employee of the month?!! Wow man, that’s..that’s great!!

Sh*t.

Damn look at the time!! 2:40 AM!!

I swear it was 11 PM like an hour ago. What should I do? You know what, any work I do at this time will be sub-optimal, I’d better get some sleep and start nice and early tomorrow. I’ll blaze through everything!!

But I’m not really sleepy, should I play this game? It’s only one game, maybe it’ll make me sleepy? After all, I am pretty tired

……..

YAAAWWWN!! Ahh, that was a great mission. You know what?! I’ll start a gaming channel on youtube :), I was made for this. I can’t wait!!

What? the sun’s out?? 5:53 AM!!! Oh no, oh no, oh no, oh no. I’m not sleepy AT ALL!

Maybe I should pull an all-nighter? No, No that’s a really bad idea.

I gotta make my 9 AM call or else…..gulp!

Ah, screw it, what’s another day? So what If I'm tired tomorrow? I’ll get by like I always do.

After all, I got so far like this, didn't I?
