A victim of procrastination......

So it seems i have been thieved by this evil. I never thought that such would happen to me i have always been an organized young lady. How could this happen to me? The thing is when i looked around me and i saw everyone else going through the same thing i decided to comfort myself and say its totally normal. It's sad folks but i have become a victim of procrastination. and i have been procrastinating to admit it.

A few months ago or rather many months ago i decided to become a blogger i was so excited about the whole concept, sitting there and sharing my thoughts. but what do you know that excitement only lasted for that one day when i did actually blog. after that procrastination took over, every morning i would wake up and tell myself, i will read, i will blog.... yeah right, well that's after I'm done watsapping and facebooking my mates then maybe i will have some 'free' time to type in a few meaningful words. Now when i reflect on the past couple of months I can see that procrastination has thieved me of my organizational skills in fact it he has robbed me of my Life! All i say to myself all day is I will do it later but later never seems to come. Well of course i can't blame the poor guy for everything i seem to lack priorities these days like most us are lacking. think about it what is the first thing you do in the morning when you wake up, when you get to work, when you switch on your computer, before you go to bed. Honestly its mind blowing. I decided to account for each and every minute in a particular day in my like and the only meaningful thing i probably did that day was eat! well maybe talking to a relative or two but uhmmm other than that absolutely nothing!

I miss that energetic ball of fire i used to know who used to do things right there and then and not wait for later to do it. I miss that girl who didn't have a cellphone at all but was a highly sociable person. I miss that girl who wouldn't sit on her bum the whole day waiting for 5 o'clock so that she can go home and sleep, that girl would watch the sun rise wondering why its taking so long. Is it part of growing up to become like this? i truly wonder, cause if it is well let me be a child all my life then...

Don't get me wrong folks I am not saying technology is bad, no technology is awesome, i love it. you are all going to read this cause of technology but it really has made us into lazy bums, i for one can testify. If you don't identify with me, man i am cool with it don't sweat it. but i think i need to check myself and reorder my life and my priorities and get away from the grips of Procrastination or else i am going to wake up at fifty and realize i have just achieved 12% of what i actually could have achieved just waiting for later. I am of the opinion if Einstein had half the distractions we have and if he procrastinated half the way we did he wouldn't even be part of this post cause I wouldn't know him! So get off your lazy chair and do something meaningful right now, I know i will.

If you don't see any post from me for at least a month I need another kick in the you know where. Help us God.
