The Art of Procrastination

Many people have joined in on the very underrated art of procrastination and have thus become much more awesome than those who constantly choose to get things done in a timely manner and avoid stressful last minute situations that us procrastinators thrive on lolololol hi haters...

A lot of people are skeptical of the whole "wait until the very last minute to do any and everything including the most important things that you should really probably get done right away but you can't right now because your favorite television show is having a marathon and you cant possibly tear yourself away from the fresh package of cookies you just got from the store" ...but it has become quite the lifestyle. I mean really what is the point of getting things done right away when you can wait and still EVENTUALLY get things done. Really what's the rush... keep rushing through life like that you're sure to miss out on all the best parts...

I mean which do you prefer getting everything done as soon as you get it then spending ALLLLL the rest of your free time living your life ORRRRR...... getting nothing done, sitting around enjoying your pathetic nothingness then having to stay up until ungodly hours cramming trying to accomplish something that could have been done many moons ago. I don't know about you guys but I definitely prefer the latter. Like God I truly just l-a-hah-ove not getting sleep when I need it most. I rather enjoy pulling random bits of stupidity out of my ass and putting into a project, and ERMAHRGERD do I just LOOOVVEEEEE the 'just barely made it' average rewards earned after finally finishing something that would have taken much less time to complete if I had only done it earlier.

You see my good people I not unlike most of the human race, suffer from what many may consider lazpidity-assiness. No seriously it's a real thing look it up don't worry i'll wait.......................................................................................................................................................
Oh great you actually looked that up you must be one of us too, hey there it'll be okay. The disease is sort of a mixture of other common illnesses that plague a far too significant number of beings on this forsaken planet. Stupidity, laziness and just plain old dumbass. We are those sad individuals who would otherwise not have even the slightest bit of what one would consider a "social life" but somehow always find something new and exciting to entertain us when there is actual work to be done. Our lives suddenly become this overwhelmingly "busy" rollercoaster of doing other things we have held off doing due to our chronic procrastination.

Honestly I don't understand it. I don't know what causes it other than the classic " Ugh I don't feel like it right now, i'll do it later" and lets not forget the "Well I would, but I really should finish this Pinterest DIY craft I started a year ago".  I mean I understand that it is very easy to get distracted by that amazingly persuasive bottle of wine, but I don't understand why we don't realize what priorities are. Why would you constantly put yourself in stressful situations that you know are going to haunt you until your next project comes along.

I guess I am just here to say... Hello my name is Ronni and I am addicted to not getting my shit done in a timely manner and RUINING MY ENTIRE LIFE...... Seriously though I was just sitting around procrastinating. I was even procrastinating about procrastinating when I realized that that was my issue. Up until this point I always wondered why things were never in my favor. I always got things done but I constantly turned in the bare-minimum because I would scrounge at the last minute just to hurry up and get it done and out of the way. As I reflected on my life I looked around and saw that if people only saw my average work and my average abilities they were only going to think of me as nothing more than average. I was doing nothing to stand out. I obviously knew what I was capable of. I knew the things that I could accomplish, but no one else did because I hadn't showed them anything of me. Up until that point of realization I had understood why I was not at all where I wanted to be in life, and I decided that I needed to make serious adjustments to my life if I was going to be what I was intended to be. So here are a few things I am applying to my life to cure myself of this crippling disease of procrastination:

1. The first step is admitting that you have a problem. Denial is not just a river in Kansas.... or something like that

2. Time Management: It's never okay to be all work & no play, but you have to realize when it is time to buckle up and get down to business. Most good things in life don't come easy you have to work for them so sometimes you have to do just that WORK.

3. Just do it and when you don't feel like it do it anyways. Oh you have something else going on right now, yeah f*cking right just do work son. You have nothing else going on in your pathetic little life so do what is important now so you can one day actually have that wonderfully, lavish life that you pretend to have on social networks and what have you. Just do it, like Nike just do it. I cannot stress that enough JUST DO IT... (ok maybe I stressed it) but basically what I am saying is just do it. It cannot hurt to do it right now nothing is worse than stressing. Stressing makes you ugly look it up 4 out 5 doctors agree. If you truly want the most out of your life do it. If you want the world to see that beauty that is you, do what you have to do because nothing is more beautiful than a person with passion and loyalty. Just do it!!

Embrace Yourself

The majority of my life I have done nothing but waste my precious time trying to be everything that I was never meant to be. I spent countless nights trying to look like all of the other girls and crying because I didn't. I hated everything about myself. I hated my height, body size, face just everything. Looking back I now realize that I was completely insane to want to change what God already put his paintbrush on.
Why do we always want to fit in when we were born to stand out. Its amazing how great life can be when you stop caring about what everyone else thinks and just start doing what makes you happiest. You were born that way for a reason it's up to you to carry out your life's plan. No one else can get you to where you should be in life. No one can make you into the person you were born to be but you. But how can you get there if you're following someone else's journey into becoming who THEY are supposed to be? You have to just understand that everything is a certain way for a reason. You will grow to love everything about yourself. If you don't love yourself then who will?

...and if the cliché "love yourself" inspiration above does not make you feel even the slightest bit better then try this:

1. Take care of yourself: If you are not happy with something then most of the time you can change it. Not happy with your hair get a new style. Not happy with your size make healthier choices or just make the best you out of what you already have.


2. Think Positive: Most of the time it is only in your head that you are not beautiful. There is no such thing as ugly. Tell yourself every day that you are beautiful, kind, and important. Continue on feeding yourself with positivity until you can't even stomach the negative thoughts any longer.

3. Smile: Even if you feel as if you have nothing in the world to smile about just do it. There are so many worse problems that people deal with every single day, maybe even much worse than yours. Be grateful for what you do have and smile. It will
not only will make you feel better, but it will make those around you better. Smiling is contagious and very therapeutic.

4. Most importantly do what makes YOU happy. You can't live your life for anyone else but yourself. So do the things that you want to do. Dress how you want to dress and eat how you want to eat. You only have this one life to live why waste it trying to get the approval of others. You were born free you don't need the approval of anyone else in this world to be happy!!

... also remember that there are billions of other people out there that feel exactly how you do. We are the ones who are lucky enough to understand the true meaning and value of life. We know how to make our own happiness and live our own lives the way we want so here's to us!!.....
