Austinville Posted February 13, 2009 Report Share Posted February 13, 2009 I have the same problem. And no, I've not managed to change this habit. BUT what I have done is made this work for me...literally. I'm in the newspaper business. It's my job to do things at the last minute. Hey - it works for me! Pressure is a good thing - as long as you make your habits work FOR you. What are you getting your degree in? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

siberian_wolf Posted February 14, 2009 Report Share Posted February 14, 2009 Im the same. Especially when it comes to doing work! When I was at college everything would be left until about a few days before it had to be finished. I found it was because I wanted to focus my work on reptiles (As that was the area I wanted to work) and they always said that the asignment had to be completed about a mammal. When I was doing an assignment about reptiles, I would use most of my time studying it as I found it much more fascinating and enjoyable. If I did find it hard to focus on a subject then I used to chill out with some music whilst I done it which helped me Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
