Procrastination is unhealthy

Being in high school is accompanied by a huge amount of work, work that needs to be done in a short period of time. We have this delusion in our minds that we have all the time in the world, but the reality is that we really don’t. We keep procrastinating on a lot things, and it’s going to bite us back someday.Procrastination is really common, it is part of human nature. But we need to utilise every second we have to do productive things. If you have a test to study for, do not wait until the last minute to study for it, it will not serve you any good. You always convince yourself that there is enough time for you to do it later. Thus people think that procrastination is good as they believe that they can thrive under pressure. It might be true for certain individuals, but it may not work for you. In fact, research has disproved that idea. Joseph Ferrari, a psychology professor, conducted an experiment where he put procrastinators under restrictions of time and he discovered that they made more errors when they tried to complete their tasks. Most of the time, procrastination will not do you any good. While we would not like to admit it, procrastination leads to higher levels of stress and fatigue, because of leaving tasks to the last minute and from the judgement and negative thoughts that you give yourself after having procrastinated, hence your anxiety levels also increase. Lastly, there are ways to conquer procrastination - all you need is discipline! As they say, motivation without discipline is worthless. The best thing you can do is to set up a schedule for yourself that outlines what you ought to be doing and at what time. This should help you stop procrastinating, but only if you are disciplined enough to stick to your schedule.
