Procrastinating

Being unprepared is something we all have gone through once in our lives, or maybe if you’ve been organized up to this point, someday you’ll experience it. Getting due dates and procrastinating is something we all can relate to and are familiar with. I personally, find solace in the pressure of time running out because it motivates me to get things finished. This is the story of how I successfully procrastinated on a very important math project.

The topic I chose to do my project on is “The Dreaded P Word”, procrastination. This topic interests me the most out of the course because it is a huge problem in my life and I want this project to teach me not to be a procrastinator.

Procrastinating or waiting till last minute is a bad habit. This can cause your assignments to be late, or not have great content. It may cause you to rush or even forget about other assignments you have due. If you procrastinate for a project and have a big test to take tomorrow how

The strategy I have used for reading and writing has been the SQ3R survey and skimming the information, questioning what needed for my lesson read it to myself recite it to myself and then review the information. However, my thinking too much on the subject have me second guessing, because the information I write I would like for it to be perfect. my struggle in this class has me running to the computer checking to see if grades posted or what errors need to be addressed but let me tell everyone I reached out to the tutoring service and they are awesome, they encouraged me and gave me confident to keep writing. My biggest time management concern is I take

If you do procrastinate you will fail your classes and you will have to retake those classes. If you do not procrastinate you won't have as much stress because you do not have to worry about doing all your work at one time. This will help you prepare for the future because if you procrastinate you will fail and if you procrastinate for your job you will get fired.

The problem of procrastination starts when a student waits until minutes before a class to study for a class. This may seem like a solution for students who are pressed for time; however, this doesn’t allow time for the information to be solidified and vital information can be lost. These behaviors form because students have found that in the past they were able to successfully pass the class by doing their homework literally hours before the projects deadline. This reckless learning may help pass the class, but doesn’t give the information the time needed to be solidified into memory. This reckless learning also produces effects within projects that are often below the students’ academic level and can cause

Procrastination is a tendency to postpone, put off, delay, reschedule, take a rain check on, put on ice, hold off, or to defer what is necessary to reach a particular goal.(Roget's 21st Century Thesaurus, Third Edition. Philip Lief Group 2009.) While attending College some students find it hard to juggle work, family, and friends. Leading most students down a dangerous path to procrastination; that negative impact affect students from their physical health, mental health, and social health.

When I started my senior year of high school, I learned very quickly not to procrastinate.  For me, procrastinating creates more stress over the assignment than if I had done it as soon as it was assigned.  This principle is derived from my experience in college english thus far.  When we was assigned our exemplification essay, I decided to wait until the weekend before it was due to finish it. Because I procrastinated, I was not able to go with my sister to watch a movie. Since then, I try to at least start on the assignment before the day before the assignment is due. Also, in college I anticipate to finish the assignment as soon as possible.   Basically, you should not push assignments off until the weekend because you will usually find something you want to

Procrastinating is the bane of most college students, if not all. Statements like “I’ll do it later” or “It’s not due until Monday”, define the poor choice of doing assignments at the last minute. Procrastinating leads up to a constant and looming pressure that builds up and up until the night before, cramming for ideas, which happens all night long, to finish. What are the results of procrastinating? The most accurate answer would be seldom a student’s best work; not performing one’s best work most likely means, the grades would come out the same (awful). Was it really worth it? Not a chance. Procrastinating can lead to distractions blocking the main focus of academic

Procrastination, over long periods of time, builds a habit. It may start off small, like purposefully snoozing your alarm clock for that extra ten minutes of sleep. However, if you look at the rest of the day, you might not have noticed that everything you did got pushed back ten minutes. The same concept goes for schooling. When you procrastinate doing your homework, the time you spend doing it gets pushed back later and later until

When I have assignment to do, at the beginning, I always too lazy to get started, instead, I usually get started one or two days before the due day. Meanwhile, the procrastination always results in many problems to me. For example, I do not have enough time to do the research for my research essay, and it directly causes a low mark on my essay. In addition of that, I do not have time to do the best editing for my essays, which results in many grammar mistakes. Besides, procrastination makes me feel so bad, because I know that I can do much better, but I did not. As a consequence, it will further affect my courage in a negative way. Therefore, procrastination is the most significant thing that I want to change. Thus, I decide to start doing my assignment earlier from this semester, so that I will have enough time to prepare it, learn it, and make it

I am procrastinating on getting my driving license. A lot has gotten in my way so I couldn’t even practice driving such as car issues and not having time to because of being a full time student and working four days a week. Another thing I am procrastinating at is saving up money for my future car and an apartment and bills in general. It is difficult saving up when I still have the expense of my mother’s funeral over my head. It is also difficult saving for my future when I have to help my father out with money.

Make a plan for working on each assignment and avoid procrastination. Procrastination is one of the biggest challenges for any student. It is easy to put off an assignment until the last minute only to turn in work that is not to the best of your ability because you were rushed.

Students can avoid procrastination by following the S.M.A.R.T. goal guidelines. All of your goals should be specific (s), measurable (m), achievable (a), realistic (r), and time-sensitive (t). A specific goal is clear, focused, concise, and well-defined (“Ensure Your Success”). Instead of a general goal like “I want to get my degree,” turn that into something more specific like “I am going to get my Bachelor’s degree in Business Administration from George Mason University” (“Ensure Your Success”). To make goals measurable, establish timelines and dates so you can measure your progress and stay on track to meet targets. Goals need to be achievable. Evaluate your own work ethic, see what you’re willing to do, and shape your goal around that so you know it is something you’re capable of doing. A goal needs to be realistic, something that you are
