Procrastination, thou are an ugly wart on a donkey's hind end...


Is procrastination ever a good thing? Generally, I don't think so but I hate wasting time so I'm hard on myself. This winter has been one long bout of procrastination for me, writing-wise, and I'm not happy about it.

I did discover a silver lining inside the procrastination station the other day, though, as my train came to a stop and requested ice cream before moving on. What if I avoided what I should be doing by doing something else that was worthwhile?

I know what you're thinking…well, duh! But really, it's not that simple. I wanted to veg and watch some idiot movie. Instead, I wrote and scheduled all twenty-six freakin' days' worth of A to Z April Challenge posts! Yay!

The secret to motivation? It DIDN'T need to happen yet. Not until April, in fact. That made it 100% a FUN THING TO DO, instead of OMG IT'S NOT DONE YET!

Maybe I've found the key.

Do you ever trick yourself out of procrastinating?
