They put so much pressure on me that I am not as active and organized as they want. But in important moments I can cope with the accumulated tasks.
This year is quite difficult for me – I am preparing for exams and admission to college. And this is a real test of my abilities. Thank you for your advice! Like a true procrastinator, I will use them.

Please keep up on the blogging; you’re a natural!
And from this proud-to-be-a-dork to another….you’re absolutely right, dorks ARE cool. Here’s my argument for this: “Dorks” ALWAYS want to learn more, want to research everything because they’re not only smart, but most importantly, resourceful.
As well, the dorks of society…a dying breed it seems in my generation; I’m 44, are the ones who WILL create cures for cancer, fight world hunger, etc. Dorks don’t give up because they know tenacity, perseverance and blood, sweat and tears make our species, as you so fondly write. As well, we are not chasing the money; the chase is in obtaining knowledge.
Not only do I usually do not read blogs…because I’m either at the library learning anything and everything I can understand (if it’s an industry I have no idea with regards to, sometimes it might take longer.) However, I believe that if I know the fine, broad points, I can figure out what book is next to read on the subject. Without knowing you, I can assume, anyway, that you, as well love the library. Free knowledge!
Anyway, Ashley, keep on keeping on. GREAT article on procrastination. Did you know scientists have proved that perfectionists are the worst procrastinators? They have found in researching perfectionists as well as procrastinators, (not talking about just the lazy, unorganized poor soul) that if a perfectionist knows the project or errand, idea, etc. won’t turn out perfect, they don’t start it. Interesting…I’d love to hear your thoughts on this in another blog somewhere.
Thanks for great article as well as teaching this dork something new. Take care! As well, good luck in school!
Best Regards,
Heather
