Is it possible to just get a work assignment and get started without the neurotic game of "what's the deadline" and postponing until you have to start? Does school ruin people because it teaches us to play this game, instead of just shifting priorities (as needed) and then just starting in with good effort when we are handed a new task, rather than playing the time game, which is "Oh, I can postpone until I have to get going"? Does anyone know a way around the "time game" that procrastinators play?

It's very simple, get the assignment and do it. Just think of all the time you will save for yourself because you won't be worrying about it.

Deadlines are made, because work needs to be handed in a period of time. It happens everywhere. You want to stop procrastinating? Just do the work before the deadline arrives and youll see that you will have time for other things.
