I am a bad procrastinator, and I can never seem to get things done unless it is the last minute. At the last minute, however, I still do a quality job on whatever I am doing, so I continue to procrastinate. Anyone have any tips for me?

haha, i struggle with the same thing... like answering questions on this thing when i should be writing a paper =).... when i have to do something that i can't afford to wait until the last minute to do, i make up a schedule-- a goal for a part of the project to do each day. then i put up that schedule on my wall (or in my planner) and cross it off when I finish for that day, so i feel like i accomplished my day's objective...
other people i know promise to go buy themselves something if they finish a day early, or some other incentive like that

there is no real "tip" for procrastination. I'm a really hard worker (academically), but there are times when i procrastinate. it's all about knowing the importance of what you have to do, and knowing that your best effort can't be put into it if it's done at the last minute. that can apply to almost anything. you have to train yourself, and ask yourself "well if I put this off until the last minute then what will the consequences be?" try to. be a man and conquer yourself. don't let procastination take control over you.

Lets see... you do a quality job? And your period of finding within yourself the energy to do this you call... procrastination?

Just accept the fact that you "work well under pressure"! Embrace your strengths . . . :)
