Procrastination is the thief of time (Don't postpone unnecessarily)

I think I love this topic of discussion. Proverbs. Hahaha, oh my God! You might be wondering why I reacted this way. Remembering some stuff made me laugh because when it comes to doing things at the right time, I'm a fucking Jack

I just don't give a damn. Hey you, let's rock. I have the whole time to myself and I know I will always meet up. I leave the road and follow the bush path I've never thread even when I need to get to my destination at a stipulated time. Sometimes, I prefer to swim underwater finding a shortcut to where I'm going after wasting much time at the harbor shifting the journey to later as ships are moving on clear waterways to the end point

Procrastination is the thief of time

I was really the one they pictured before bringing out the proverbs. No wonder I spent 10 months in my mother's belly before I was forced out and when I eventually came out, I was looking at the doctor boldly without crying until I took some lashes. I was born with procrastination

I just enjoy doing things at the eleventh hour when it's in a rush. I do it in the exam hall all the time. Each time I received my paper, I would sit and look around for donkey minutes (sometimes more than 30 minutes) without writing Jack on my paper. And you know what? I know what to write. The nasty behaviour was just deep inside and embedded in the innermost layer of my reasoning. So many areas I can't explain

Still with my procrastination kinda lifestyle, I meet up most times but always in a rush when the pressure is high. And I would be like "Hush! 2 minutes more...... fast, fast, fast..... Yes..Yessssssss! I did it". I just derive pleasure from meeting up with things when it's almost late. It was such a weird attitude towards life

The day it tell on me, I wasn't lucky. It was a big fuck up. Nothing like yeeeessssss, I made it. It was "I'm doomed". 3 hours paper was reduced to 1hr : 30 mins at the middle of the paper when I already wasted more than 30 minutes looking around and without writing, as usual.

A stich in time saves nine

I didn't start when I was supposed to start and when it was announced that we have less than 10 minutes to go, we all lamented it was 3 hours paper. It was only a typographical error. You are submitting in less than 10 minutes. My head began to ring bell. See the questions I could answer neatly looking at me helplessly. I read it from their steering that they wanted me to solve them, but time wasn't on my side because I wasted it. I nearly had carry-over in the course and it affected my GP
After the exam, my number six started converging for an urgent meeting. It was then I realized I needed to turn a new leaf

So what did I do

I started telling everyone close to me I had procrastination problem. I explained deep so they could understand it was not a joke. All I wanted from them was to scold, insult, mouth wash me, and probably fight me if need be to do the right thing when I'm supposed to do it and it worked

But I had to deal with every insult and the likes because I was determined. The first time I started my exam on time, I finished an hour before the time and I was like "na me be this". I began to enjoy taking to time. If you ever see me do things at the eleventh hour, it means I was busy with other things and I must also achieve that which I'm doing late because it's also important

In other to improve myself to have a better life, I had to find a way to correct and regulate my procrastination attitude for self-development and that's called self discipline which always comes with a price

Procrastination is the thief of time: When you postpone what you need to do at a particular time to later, you have wasted most of the time you need to achieve something reasonable. It's the act of unnecessary postponement of things.
A stitch in time saves nine: When you do the right thing by taking the right action at the right time, you save yourself a lot of time and also the danger involved if that thing is not done on time. When you refuse to fix an issue or a problem when it's still small, it would get bigger with time

Thanks for reading.
This is ckole the laughing gas
One love

So your procrastination started in utero😅

Well, there is this adrenaline surge at dying minute that helps people perform with full energy during dying minutes. People always say that 'na dying minute answer sheet dey full pass'😅

However it's always stressful. It's always better to avoid procrastination. Plan your schedule well ahead of time and avoid working under intense pressure.

Nice piece boss
