Hi

My name is Shannon, and I am a procrastinator. They say the first step in fixing a problem is admitting you have a problem. Well, I have a big one. I am slowly starting to realize how this is affecting every aspect of my life, and not in a positive manner. I have always been a procrastinator. I used to lie to myself and believe I did everything last minute because I needed the stress of a deadline to accomplish anything. The sad thing is I truly enjoy being organised and prepared but for some reason rarely am.
Hi, my name is Shannon, and I am LAZY. Not always, but definitely more than I should be. I think this problem is the catalyst for procrastination, in my case anyways. On a positive note, I can be very creative with myself when I am trying to rationalize putting things off. Now if I could use that creativity in a better manner I might actually accomplish something.
Now for the hard part, how to fix this. The truth is I really don't know how, but I am going to try my darnedest to figure it out. ( and here's where my brain goes to hmmmmm I should Google ways to stop procrastinating, but am I doing it because I want to fix this or because there are dishes in the sink that need to be washed, a checkbook that needs to be balanced, and groceries that need to be bought)
