Hearing Nothing at the moment

The Procrastination Chart


Oh my God. What's terrifying about it is how accurate it is. I can waste hours doing nothing in exactly this sort of way. I'm incredibly depressed about how much of a cliche I am.

How well do you procrastinate?

    Some many years ago someone or
    another came up with the (book title?)
    expressiion, 'THE WILL TO FAIL.' That's
    procrastination, at least for me. One reason
    I know is that every however-many years
    I'll go into an orgy of activity and thus save
    my life, if not my soul.

    OH MY GOD is RIGHT!!!  This chart is EXACTLY ME!  How patheticly sad [sniff-sniff].  But it's good to know there are others like me:  I'm not alone!  Thank you, John, for the revelation... [I think]... Have a great day, Sir.
