Procastination-- it is an ugly habit I am yet unable to shake off. You see, I didn't actually get some sleep last night as I nursed a light fever. I spent the whole day Sunday writing the final draft of the report for my client, which I submitted a few minutes ago. I had one whole week to write the damn report. The stress and the intense concentration in writing non-stop must have caused the fever.
Gina, a colleague of mine has the same problem. She waits until the very last minute to write her reports, you know, when the client is literally breathing behind her back waiting to break her neck off unless the report is completed. We collaborated on one project and I'm telling you, she comes up with clever ideas just before submission!
She says nothing beats pressure when you need to come up with sound ideas to discuss. Curiously, I agree with her. Not because I want to, but I found out reports I did way ahead of time were substandard compared to the ones under "duress".
Procastination is bad for your health.
