Procrastination

This article focus on Procrastination, which is the practice of carrying out less urgent tasks in preference to more urgent ones, or doing more pleasurable things in place of less pleasurable ones, and thus putting off impending tasks to a later time. It can lead to feelings of guilt, inadequacy, depression and self-doubt. It is to voluntarily delay an intended course of action despite expecting to be worse off for the delay. It has been associated with perfectionism: a tendency to negatively evaluate outcomes and one’s own performance, intense fear and avoidance of evaluation of one’s abilities by others, heightened social self-consciousness and anxiety, recurrent low mood, and “workaholism.”
