Procrastination

I don't quite understand why, but I think it is nearly physically impossible for me do any assignment much in advance before it is due. I think it might be the lack of motivation. If I know there is no looming deadline that I'm up against, I have little inspiration to get the work done. As I think about this more, I think this might be derived from the style that I have always lived my life. I am the definition of a busy body and have been since as long as I can remember. When I was younger I did tap dance, volleyball, soccer, basketball, swim team, golf lessons and softball, and most of them overlapped. I hate not being busy. In fact, I function much better when I have little free time. I have found over the years that when I am given too much spare time, I tend to get absolutely nothing done, while on the other hand, if I am extremely pressed for time, I get so much accomplished! I don't know when I became this way, or when I became such a procrastinator, but until the day comes when I don't get an assignment done or a good grade because I put it off for too long, I will continue to live this way and love it. Afterall, life is short, why not fill with as much as you can?
