Procrastination - The word itself comes from the Latin word procrastinatus: pro- (forward) and crastinus (of tomorrow). Procrastination is a behavior which is characterized by the deferment of actions or tasks to a later time. Psychologists often cite procrastination as a mechanism for coping with the anxiety associated with starting or completing any task or decision. [1] For a behavior to be classified as procrastination, it must be counterproductive, needless, and delaying. Most of us put off our work for the last minute. And very few among them get completed at the end. As a result we face trouble and difficulties . but still we are ignorant to avoid procrastinating our work. Procrastination is the thief of time. As we keep delaying the work most of it gets safe sided and finally remains incomplete.Tomorrow is the only day in the year that appeals to a lazy man.
