Diagnosis....Psychological Disorder!

It must be true!  I read it on the internet.  I have a PSYCHOLOGICAL DISORDER!!!  

Procrastination.

Chronic procrastination = Psychological Disorder!

I am sure that it must be true, as I have a ton of things to do, yet no where near enough personal motivation to get them done.  According to Wikepedia (which we all know is a reliable source) this will lead to feelings of stress and guilt.  Go back to the beginning of the definition...  procrastination is used to relieve stress...  I have caught myself in a viscious circle.

And (never start a sentence with and!) of course, not wanting to be a procrastinator I have decided to blog about it.  Of course, blogging about procrastion is clearly on my list of things "to do" today.  Yeah, right.

A conversation I had yesterday, where I walked away with the advice (although I was sitting..hmmm) "you do not have to do the whole thing at once" got me thinking...  How many times I sit and look at a project (usually cleaning) and think, I only have 20 minutes, can't finish that job, so later.  If I could only start it, and finish when I have another 20 minutes, more or less.

Having laid that all out there, sort of a "get it off your chest" kind of thing.  Today is the first day of treatment...  I will let you know how it goes, maybe.
