If you're a procrastinator, you can't help but delay... - Deepstash

If you're a procrastinator, you can't help but delay work. And that's true for the small and big tasks.

Sure, everybody fears to step outside of their comfort zone - that's why we call them comfort zones. It takes courage to make a bold move.

But it sure doesn't take any courage to complete small tasks like paying bills, printing out something for your boss, doing taxes, etc.

The truth is: Procrastination has nothing to do with what you're trying to do - small or big, it can wait until later. It can always wait, right?
