Procrastination: postpone doing something, especially as a regular practice.
I have concluded that some confusion has arisen out of this word. To many it does mean to delay or put something off. Yet to others it is waiting for the muse. A great book by Karl Iglesias “101 Habits of Highly Successful Writers” has a section, which describes the writing practices of these great writers. I must be one of them, as I turn on the computer, get some food, check emails, play a card game, and then wonder why I’m not writing.
So here is the deal from this day forth I will write a few minutes on my latest project before I answer or even attempt to look at emails or any other functions of the computer!!! If one could only understand how hard that is to write. OK I can do this, how about you?
