Blogpost 5: The CONSEQUENCES

We procrastinate, all of us do. It's a daily part of our lives and it'll stick with us for the coming years or so. Our children will procrastinate, our grandchildren, our grandchildren's children basically what I'm trying to say is that, procrastination is inevitable but what will it lead to?

Procrastination isn't all that great other than the fact that it'll make us happy for a moment but we need to face the real picture here; the work. When we procrastinate we just put off tasks and it lengthens our work load and decreases our to time to do the task.
 
I read an article named, "The Negative Consequences Of Procrastination" which was written by Bill Anderson, Matthew Long-Middleton and Sydney Llewellyn - Bruce Liese; parenting as these people suggest can even have an impact on the procrastinating habits of children. Because of strict parents sometimes children can not fully develop their sense of independence and self-control. Not just the parents can affect our personality but also our friends for you actually want to fit in and be in the cool crowd as they say and for a fact, people actually get most of their work habits inspired by the people around them be it good or bad; depends on the people you hang out with.

What I look like when Mum won't stop nagging

As stated by Bruce, "Lives can be ruined by procrastination. Certain kinds of procrastination have severely negative consequences if we don't take care of the tasks now." I have to agree with him for procrastination has almost destroyed my life in ways you can't imagine. It got me into trouble with my mum more times than I can count. It's not that it's really bad to procrastinate but too much procrastination may cause you your grades. That's something you want your mum to find out that'll result her to nagging you 'till your ears bleed now do you? I wouldn't want that ever in my life but I still get nagged almost every other day for procrastinating and in my opinion, that's the only bad side to procrastinating.

Another article that I've read was named, "Effects of Procrastination", written by DISQUS; procrastinating results in task being put off until the very last minute because we get some sort of nervous feeling come over our body and as a reflex we try to overcome that feeling by procrastinating but in reality we're just postponing that feeling for later, where we might be prepared and or not.

The article also states that, "If you are not careful, the effects of procrastination can have damaging consequences on your life. It is very unhealthy to continue to put your body through this type of stress, not only is it unhealthy for you, it puts unnecessary strain on your relationships."

I agree with this statement. Firstly procrastination surely has effects that affect our mental and emotional stability. Yeah procrastinating is fun I get it but have you ever felt the feeling of dying? Where you feel you're only minutes away from the due date given and you haven't even started or that you haven't finished the task given. Procrastination makes your blood pump and you get that adrenaline rush at the very last moment before the due date to do your work but that just makes you more stressed than before where you had all that time where you could've finished the work with ease and relaxation.

Let's get this straight, I'm a procrastinator and I actually hate cramming but I'm good at it. It's bad, yeah I know but I still get the job done and what's so bad about that? It just depends on how you take your work priorities and that do you have skill in the project you're procrastinating on.
