How Procrastination Hurts
Scenario: "Dude, procrastination just hurts you by limiting the time you have to do some shizzle. That's it. Yay!" Sure, you might delay some work until the few days before one of your project's deadline. Then when you finish -- you tell yourself: "Whoa-wey. Such a relief. I'm good as new!" But are you? Are you really? Like...really? Not really. According to one study, procrastination cuts away at your healthy behind:
Just over the course of a single academic term, procrastinating college students had such evidence of compromised immune systems as more colds and flu, more gastrointestinal problems. And they had insomnia.
So the next time you see yourself procrastinating, say: "Stop!" Then -- hopefully -- you'll stop procrastinating and keep your health in check for your fabulous business.
Say No! to Procrastino.
