    Sometimes I procrastinate because I think that I perform better under the pressure of a deadline. If you want to stop, you might try adding positive & negative reinforcements to your to-do list. Write them down on the list. Then every time you complete under time, give yourself a treat & every time you procrastinate, you could take away a treat. You could even list several different times out beside each item & the treat would get better & better the quicker your time. It may seem like just more work making the list, but it would be worth it if the list saved you time in the long run, right?

    • Wow, does this sound like me! The other part of it is that i am a frustrated perfectionist..I am convinced that the finished product will not be as good as it could/should be...even though in the past there have been some things I have done that turned out to be very good...what is up with that""""
