During a random boredom scroll, I stumbled upon an article on procrastination. The 12-page read revealed eye-opening tips that transformed my approach. Procrastination means putting off tasks until later. Surprisingly, it's an ancient habit encoded in our DNA, initially a survival mechanism now tied to negative emotions like inadequacy.

For me, procrastination has hindered productivity, especially during holidays. Even after reading about it, I struggled to write a summary! Causes vary from imposed tasks to misaligned priorities and skill gaps. One truth remains: procrastination isn't a habit to indulge or brag about.

The irony? I read this article while procrastinating on another task! Key takeaways include procrastination being putting off tasks, an ancient DNA-encoded habit, negative emotions often following, identifying and addressing underlying causes, and not indulging or priding oneself on procrastination.

Breaking the cycle requires self-awareness and intentional action. Recognize your patterns and replace procrastination with productive habits. It's time to overcome and achieve!
