Should I write this right now? Can't I do it later? Oh God, I'm procrastinating about writing about 'procrastination'. Well, not exactly. The thought did enter my mind but I' m writing aren't I?! You see, procrastination is just another fancy word for being 'lazy'. Let's accept it. We all are lazy. Nobody wants to do anything 'right now'. Why do it now when you can do it later? Well let me ask you a question when exactly is this "later" going to come?

I'm sure I'm sounding like your mother right now, taunting and scolding about all the things that you could be doing at this minute instead of lying around. I want to be totally honest, i procrastinate all the time and i can't help it. Whether its cleaning my room or doing my homework, I always tell myself that I'll do it later. One second I'm making up my mind about sorting out my closet and the other I'm lying on my bed thinking oh I'll do it tomorrow ..perhaps this weekend...maybe next week..maybe next SUMMER!

The thing is..I overthink. A LOT. So everything that I put off till tomorrow, haunts me every single second of every single day. I'm day-dreaming about the future when OH! I realize I have to give my clothes for laundry. Will do it later. Back to day-dreaming..the future..living in NYC..huge apartment..a fancy car..OH! I have to study for the test tomorrow. Will study in the morning. And so on and so forth. I can't even remember the last time I did something exactly when the thought of doing it entered my mind. It's become a habit.

The result? You tell me. My room's a mess. Everything falls down when i open up my closet. Can't wear my favorite dress because I forgot to give it for washing the last time I wore it and spilled soda all over. And most importantly, I nearly failed that test. Well, these were some of my experiences and I'm sure you have your own. I'm sure you know what's about to come. The obvious end, Don't procrastinate. But it's hard, isn't it? Being lazy is so much more easier. But who said that you have to do everything right now. Take it slow. Maybe just do one thing today that pops into your head. Just to one chore your mom tells you to do then and there. And then take it to the next level tomorrow. I know it seems tough right now but I can guarantee you'll be much happier when you succeed. As for me, I'm going to read this from the top and let myself inspire me (atleast that way I 'll know I inspired someone). I'll start now because I hate being called a hypocrite especially by my own mind.

Live in the moment because once it's gone, it's never coming back.
