This week: Procrastinate Constructively in 8 Links

Confession: I procrastinate a lot. It doesn’t bother me. I don’t want to change. I always get my work done and then some. How? I procrastinate productively. I do so in small increments of time or I get something else done on my to-do list that’s less important but more fun. There’s really no way to avoid procrastination entirely. Everyone does it. Don’t feel bad, just try to procrastinate differently. For example, start with the links below about productive procrastination.
