Respond to Your Tasks in a Logical Way
Another procrastinator who finds herself sullen and frustrated is Janice, who keeps an oversized and over-stretched garbage bag containing empty plastic bottles propped between the door to her apartment and an adjacent closet. Janice keeps telling herself she needs to bring the bag down to the basement because it’s grown so large that when she arrives home from work, she needs to press her full weight against the door just to open it. The bag also makes it difficult to get to that closet, which is where she keeps her commuter rail pass and pocketbook. So, she battles with the bag both after coming home from work, as well as the next morning.
“Oh, I’ve got to take care of this!” she says to herself before leaving for work Thursday morning, but later that evening she returns to do battle with her front door once again. “I’m going to take that bag down to the basement this weekend!” she says. “That’s it!” However, come the weekend, Janice’s mind is on anything but the bag, her front door, the closet, or on going to work Monday morning. So, when Monday inevitably arrives, Janice’s bag of bottles is heavier than ever, and instead of dealing with the bag in a one-time effort by taking it down to the basement, she says to herself, “I don’t have time to fiddle with that now; I’m late!” Later that evening, she finds herself in the same boat as the week before and bemoans the situation once more.
Habitual procrastination almost always takes its shape in the form of cycles of behavior. The cycle Janice finds herself in right now is one of responding incorrectly to the same situation over and over again, but not learning from these experiences that what has happened in the past will probably continue to happen should she continue responding in the exact same way. Instead of observing her unpleasant situation for what it is and changing, Janice floats, and then suffers the consequences of bad feelings and poor self-esteem.
