Readers' Forum: Mastering procrastination, crafting brilliance from delay

By Universe Contributor
April 05, 2024 12:00 AM
A sense of guilt often arises when tasks are procrastinated until the final moments. Turns out it’s not as bad as it seems. To shake up public opinion on procrastination, I decided to focus on the positive aspects hidden in those last-minute tasks. Everyone procrastinates: students trying to survive deadlines, adults drowning in work, or anyone tired of the same old time management talks. Even though people do it all the time, everyone seems to regret it. But procrastination can be phenomenal if we just play our cards right. Putting things off will lead to great ideas, help us ditch perfectionism, and keep stress levels in check. It’s time to see procrastination in a positive way.
