Hello Jessica,
I know procrastination is a problem … but I did not realize it was such a big problem. It’s funny that you would find this post at this time … synchronicity? I was doing some research on procrastination because I want to write a simple guide on getting rid of procrastination … I don’t know if “simple” is possible butI’m going to give it a try.I took a break and checked my email and there was your comment on my procrastination quotes – which led me to your blog and the information you had from your research. Is this a sign for me to continue or a sign for me to give up. I think the choice is mine. I’m pushing forward … I believe in simplicity.
