Since you've somehow bewildered yourselves into this post I asume you at some point or another have procrastinated a little. Procrastination refers to the act of replacing high-priority actions with tasks of lower priority, and thus effectively putting off important tasks to a later time. While this is all fun and games until you've effectively screwed yourself over. Lets consider this delightful analogy;
Procrastination is like masturbating. It feels good for a while, but then you realize you've just fucked yourself.
In these days where the computer seems to be taking a up a lot of our time, it's especially important that you make sure not to spend the time you were supposed to use on work, jogging, reading, homework, work-outs, times with your friends and family etc. on other things. It's way to easy to hold off doing something to the very last second.
One of the main reasons why we procrastinate, is because the thing we are procrastinating is something we feel obliged to do. If working out is for you just something you do because you feel like you have to, you're going to want to procrastinate it as long as possible. On the other hand, if you love exercising you're gladly going to jump into your jump-suit and get to it.
If you don't love what you do, you're going to want to procrastinate. The only solution to this is to do what you love. Although sometimes while doing the things you love there will be things you'd like to put off, but knowing that you're working against what you love, is going to help you do it. There are certain things in life you just have to do tho, such as go to school, and during those years where you do not have a choice in what to study, the only thing that will save you is self-discipline.
However, if you hare past this time of your life, and gone into work or college. Lets consider what you are studying and/or working with. Think about it for a while, if you rate what you are working with or studying on a scale from 1 to 10, what would you rate it? Chances are, if you are a procrastinator, you're going to rate it below 9 and 10. And if you rate it below 9 and 10, you should really consider whether this is the right path for you? Do you really want to work with something you don't completely enjoy for the rest of your life? Chances are the answer is no.
The answer to procrastination is motivation. With the proper motivation you'll get to it at once. If you're not doing what makes you feel motivated and what you love, you should consider working towards what you love. If you procrastinate things like working out, perhaps you need to find the proper motivation for it.
Work towards your perfect life, little by little. Don't do what you don't love just because you feel obligated to society. Whatever you have been socially conditioned to believe, disregard it. If you want to shoot for the stars, then do it. Don't settle for a mediocre life.
