Organization and Procrastination

Organization

My current organizational method consists of waiting on my weekly schedule for work to be posted and then planning my non-work schedule around my work schedule, therefore, I mostly plan week by week. I know that isn't planning very far ahead but I don't really need to plan too far ahead unless it's an event that I have to save up money for. But now since I'm quitting my job so I can act for the school, I will be able to plan far ahead because I will know my acting schedule which will be planned out months in advance. So yes this organizational method works for me, it may not work for everyone though because I don't really need much notice in advance to plan events that I attend even though my schedule will be planned out in advanced anyways.

Procrastination

Procrastination can be a huge hindrance in ones life, it basically causes a "slippery slope" effect, and here's how. Imagine that you are at school or work, you are told to get a certain task done by Friday; so throughout the week you tell yourself that you'll get it done just anytime before Friday instead of doing it that instant. Friday comes, you go to school or work, and you realize with heart dropping remorse that you forgot to do what you were told to do. Just to top it off, you are too busy to find time to get whatever it may be done that day and you then have to deal with the punishment of your teacher/parents or your boss. Depending on whether it was at school or work you could either fail and be grounded for a while or you could possibly be fired. You then go into a depression and drop out of school because you feel like you're a failure and wont amount to anything in your entire insignificant life, also, you cant get a job anywhere because you don't have an education or everyone thinks you have a bad work ethic and won't hire you. Now all you have are two options, you can either live with your parents for the rest of your life and be the money sucking leech you are, or you can become homeless and probably contract some horrible diseases because you were desperate and were willing to do anything to earn money. In conclusion, all of this happened because you willfully procrastinated. Moral of the story:  Don't procrastinate.
