Procrastination in my opinion is when you wait to do something in the last minute.

Procrastination is when you keep holding something off and waiting to do it.

I'm a procrastinator to things that seem very easy, seeing as I can do them anytime. My biggest time wasters are things like playing video games instead of being productive.

Adriana Marshall 8-11

I am a procrastinator. My biggest time wasters are playing on my PS4 and watching Netflix.

Josue Alabi 811

josuealabi — 2021-11-18 20:26:36 UTC

Sometimes if I put something off until the last minute, I won't remember to do it and I might lose points on work.

One thing I liked about the ted talk is that he made a lot of jokes, it wasn't just a presentation on how "this is like this", he actually made the audience laugh instead making it a slow and boring lecture.

Procrastination is when you say you are about to do something but then wait to do it

Lafayette Augustus 811

Procrastination is when you say to yourself your gonna do something and do it at the very last minute

I am a procrastinator when it comes to school work sometimes. My biggest time waster are sleeping or playing games.

Nicholas Armstrong 811

I am a procrastinator, my biggest waste of time is watching youtube

Lafayette Augustus 811

lafayetteaugustus — 2021-11-18 20:30:08 UTC

I get over procrastination by thinking of the outcome if I wait until the last minute. I get started on a assignment/project by telling myself the benefits of starting this project early.

Adriana Marshall 8-11

2021-11-18 20:30:10 UTC

I learned that there are two different types of procrastinations.

Nicholas Armstrong 811

2021-11-18 20:31:01 UTC

I get over procrastination by knowing if I don't start on a project or assignment I won't do it to last minute and will get in trouble by my parents

Micah Audain -Stennett 811

Procrastination is to me when you have something that you need to do but you hold off doing it.

Lafayette Augustus 811

lafayetteaugustus — 2021-11-18 20:31:45 UTC

I sometimes do an assignment before the day is due which causes me to stress. When I stress sometimes I just say forget it.

Josue Alabi 811

josuealabi — 2021-11-18 20:31:50 UTC

I can get over my procrastination by just doing work and pushing through my laziness. I get started with assignments and projects by first thinking about how long it might take to complete them, and making sure i'm not procrastinating too long to the point where I wouldn't have enough time to do it.

Nicholas Armstrong 811

2021-11-18 20:31:52 UTC

It impact my school work because if I wait to the last minute I won't be able to show my best work.

Nicholas Armstrong 811

2021-11-18 20:32:04 UTC

I learned that procrastinator can stop you from doing things such as assignment or going to the grocery store or even cleaning your house or washing clothes and that can hurt you when you have multiple things to do

Lafayette Augustus 811

lafayetteaugustus — 2021-11-18 20:32:22 UTC

I liked how he wasnt a boring person during the ted talk and he made the crowd giggle a couple of times.

Isaiah Johson: Procrastinator in my own words would state that it is someone who waits until the last minute to do assignments that were posted a while ago

Adriana Marshall 8-11

Procrastination impacts my performance at school because I sometimes wait the last minute and the work is not that good and I get a bad grade on it.

Isaiah Johnson

2021-11-18 20:33:46 UTC

I am definitely a Procrastinator, I see work and just put it off until a different time and then rush to do it when its near the due date. I suffer from watching youtube and getting distracted easily.

Kyra Addison

"All fun and games until you realize your future's on the line."

"Fun over Future."

Same thing, I guess.

Angun Smith 8-11

angunsmith — 2021-11-18 20:34:50 UTC

Procrastination is wasting time and holding something off, due to the lack of motivation or interest to do it; you are basically waiting till the last minute.

Adriana Marshall 8-11

2021-11-18 20:35:18 UTC

I get over procrastination by planning the work out and setting alarms when it is time for me to finish so I don't get overwhelmed and end up not doing it at all. I get started on a project by taking the small steps of the project first so I don't overwhelm myself like doing organization sheets so I can put my thoughts together.

Adesope Omitoogun 8-11

adesopeomitoogun — 2021-11-18 20:35:43 UTC

In my opinion Procrastination is the mind set or action of choosing to do something that you find more interesting, fun, or easier than something that you may be required.

Isaiah Johnson

2021-11-18 20:35:52 UTC

You can get over procrastination by setting an Schedule and taking the initiative in doing the work when you have time and not putting it off until the Latest due date.. I get started by creating the outline in which I will do the assignment, I might put it off for a few days but I will eventually do it

Isaiah Johnson

2021-11-18 20:37:29 UTC

It impacts my performance because it puts stress on you at last minute which is not good so that may distract you when you realize you have been procrastinating.

Angun Smith 8-11

angunsmith — 2021-11-18 20:37:47 UTC

I am a procrastinator. For example if my mom tells me to clean out the dishwasher, I'll wait a couple minutes until she gets home. Another thing I procrastinate to do is essays. I think I am a decent and fast writer, that causes me to think I need less time, or I can wait until the last minute to start writing.

Matthew Brown

Procrastination is a time between a deadline and the start of a objective were someone purposely waist time.

Isaiah johnson

2021-11-18 20:38:21 UTC

I enjoyed how it wasnt dry, he made jokes to go along with what he was saying so that made it more enjoyable because I know if he was just talking the whole time with a basic voice I would have almost fell alseep

procrastination is like teasing, you get so close to doing what you need to do and then you come crashing down.

Karen Bodin 8-11

2021-11-18 20:39:34 UTC

procrastination is wasting your time on something that is useless or trying to distract yourself from doing what you are actually supposed to do.

Kyra Addison

2021-11-18 20:39:34 UTC

Oh, I have a lot of time wasters:

- Watching TV shows (I get sucked into the fiction world, I forget I'm alive sometimes)

-Playing video games (Just like with the shows, I get teleported to a completely different world)

-Doing Art (I love doing this one, it's like, my only strong suit, plus, it's a hobby)

-Personal projects
(I work VERY hard when the project is for myself, I have that mindset where I don't like it when people tell me to do things -_-)

Angun Smith 8-11

angunsmith — 2021-11-18 20:39:56 UTC

I get over procrastination by trying to think of how my situation is going to turn out. I try to make schedules, and set reminders to help overcome procrastination. I get started by listening to my reminders and following my schedule; which probably needs to be improved.

Khayden Jones

2021-11-18 20:41:03 UTC

I procrastinate most of the time, but sometimes I lose motivation all together or I might forget. My grades last year reflected that. I do that alot less now.

Most of the time Instead of doing my work I'm watching TV or playing video games.

Benita Ndifor

2021-11-18 20:41:20 UTC

To me procrastination is not using your time wisely and putting off what you need to do till the last minute. For example if you have an assignment and its due at 11:59 and you put it off until 9 to start doing it.

Angun Smith 8-11

angunsmith — 2021-11-18 20:41:22 UTC

Procrastination impacts my performance at school by occasionally causing more stress. It can also cause work to build up, then I have more to do.

Micah Audain -Stennett 811

2021-11-18 20:41:44 UTC

I am a procrastinator I hold thing off a lot. My biggest time waster is sleep and the occasional migraines I get. I get migraines a lot so to avoid dealing with them I go to sleep. I would set an alarm to wake up an hour or 30 minutes later then I end up sleeping longer than expected.

Matthew Brown

2021-11-18 20:42:25 UTC

I think sometime I would procrastinate if im not as passionate for something but if I am I would probably not waist any time. Some of my biggest time wasters are T.V because it could distract me from certain task that I have to do and mess me up.

Ryan Solomon 811

2021-11-18 20:42:28 UTC

Procrastination is when you wait to do something because you think you have way more time than you really do and when that something is due you panic and frantically begin doing whatever you have been pushing to the side for a lot of time.

Khayden Jones

2021-11-18 20:42:40 UTC

I used to not get over procrastination, but now because I have more responsibilities I am forced to.

Demarcus Williams 811

demarcuswilliams — 2021-11-18 20:42:49 UTC

Procrastination in my opinion is when you put something aside for a long time and then come back to do it last minute.

Kyra Addison

2021-11-18 20:43:33 UTC

I try to make the assignment at least a little bit fun. I might 'decorate' things on the assignments, like use different colored fonts or something.

Another thing that helps a lot is when i'm working with other people. Yeah, we're doing work, but we can still be social.

Karen Bodin

2021-11-18 20:43:52 UTC

I am a procrastinator. I like to (do) :

-art (drawing, painting, coloring etc..)

-play/watch things on devices

-sing ( i'm a very bad singer)

Angun Smith 8-11

angunsmith — 2021-11-18 20:43:59 UTC

I learned that all people procrastinate in some way, shape, or form. I also learned that procrastinating can affect your impact or effectiveness into whatever your doing. For example, the speaker in the TED talk had to write a 90 page essay, waited until the last minute to do it, and didn't do very well.

Benita Ndifor

2021-11-18 20:44:05 UTC

I am an expert procrastinator. My biggest time waster is my phone. For example i start going on netflix, tiktok, or i text/call my friends. So basically anything that distracts me from my work.

Demarcus Williams 811

demarcuswilliams — 2021-11-18 20:44:07 UTC

I am a procrastinator. Some are my biggest time wasters are either on my phone or playing my xbox.

Khayden Jones

2021-11-18 20:45:08 UTC

As stated before procrastination has had a terrible effect on my academic performance, I have gotten nearly all e's one time. Now due to more and heavier responsibilities I am forced to stop procrastination.

Adesope Omitoogun 8-11

adesopeomitoogun — 2021-11-18 20:45:28 UTC

I am a procrastinator to things that look easy enough to where I can do them without much time and effort. My biggest time waster has to be watching youtube videos, listening to music, and talking to friends.

Kyra Addison

2021-11-18 20:45:55 UTC

I usually turn assignments in late. This wasn't a problem before, but now that these classes are a lot more strict I'll get points taken off for it.

When I wait for that long, until the due date, my assignments can seem 'sloppy'. Some assignments I've done right before the due dates are literal rants instead of actual work.

Matthew Brown

2021-11-18 20:46:00 UTC

Procrastination is impact on my school performance because if I have a assignment to do I would try to say im going to do it later and then when the deadline is a day away all the work that was supposed to be finished before the deadline would not have been finished and I would have to do all of the work under so much of a pressure so I may not have my best work turned in.

Khayden Jones

2021-11-18 20:46:31 UTC

I liked how he talked about life procrastination, that is something that people very rarely lean about.

Kyra Addison

2021-11-18 20:46:54 UTC

I really liked the humor. It made the podcast interesting. I can tell this guy has a great imagination. I mean, he created all those characters.

The drawings were nice too <3

Demarcus Williams 811

demarcuswilliams — 2021-11-18 20:47:24 UTC

I get over procrastination by thinking about things I have to do later so I know it has to get done and I think about the consequences I would get if I don't do it. I usually get started on a project by telling myself of good things of getting it done early and all the free time I would have.

Ryan Solomon 811

2021-11-18 20:47:32 UTC

I'm a procrastinator and I procrastinate almost everything there is to procrastinate. My biggest time waster is doing everything else but what i'm supposed to do.

Karen Bodin

2021-11-18 20:48:24 UTC

I can get over procrastination by reminding myself how important it is for me and why I need to get it done. I can get started on an assignment or a project by preparing my area and keep on telling myself how much it's important

Matthew Brown

2021-11-18 20:50:43 UTC

One thing that I learned from the TED talk given is that there is that a procrastinator has something called a instant gradification monkey that will cause the rational decision maker to procrastinate.

Ryan Solomon

2021-11-18 20:52:38 UTC

I get over my procrastination by doing a little bit of work throughout the day until I am finished. This is usually the day that the assignment is due so I guess I really dont get over my procrastination.

Demarcus Williams 811

demarcuswilliams — 2021-11-18 20:52:57 UTC

Procrastination impacts my performance because when I don't procrastinate I have enough time do to the things I need to do to the best of my ability but when I do procrastinate I rush and to it my best.

Micah Audain -Stennett 811

2021-11-18 20:53:00 UTC

Procrastination impacts my performance at school because I procrastinate a lot. Sometimes instead of listening in class I will draw random objects around the room on a sticky note or index card. that impacts my performance in school because I might not know what to do on the assignments.

Benita Ndifor

2021-11-18 20:53:02 UTC

The way i try to get over my procrastination is by thinking about how it will affect me after. For example if i have a project and i procrastinate till last minute and it not turning out good, It would affect my grade badly and i will be disappointed in myself and so would my parents. How i start on my assignments/projects is i dont think too much about it and i just start it and correct it after.

Karen Bodin

2021-11-18 20:53:17 UTC

Procrastination can impact on my performance at school my staying off task and trying to do other thing when
I know that I have to do What I need to do

Adesope Omitoogun 8-11

adesopeomitoogun — 2021-11-18 20:53:22 UTC

Unfortunately I don't really pull myself out of Procrastination as much as I want to. What does get me over it is my Panic Monster. When I have an assignment or project I get started by looking at what it is and getting an understanding before I do it.

Adesope Omitoogun 8-11

adesopeomitoogun — 2021-11-18 20:54:31 UTC

Whenever I procrastinate in school I normally lose points on an assignment that I know I could have done better on which lowers my grade.

Ryan Solomon 811

2021-11-18 20:54:51 UTC

Procrastination affects my performance sometimes because if i dont start the assignment a few days before its due I will end up forgetting that there was even an assignment at all and I wont get started until after the assignment was due and it'll get done late.

Demarcus Williams 811

demarcuswilliams — 2021-11-18 20:55:34 UTC

One thing that I liked was that they were making funny jokes and they were a little funny to me because they made me laugh and it's not like most boring lectures that people make.

Benita Ndifor

2021-11-18 20:55:47 UTC

Procrastination impacts my performance at school because since im in honors if i turn in work 1 day late we get 50% so if i procrastinate and wait until the day after because i convinced my brain that its ok to get a 50 i will continue getting a 50 on all my work and that will effect my grade.

Adesope Omitoogun 8-11

adesopeomitoogun — 2021-11-18 20:55:51 UTC

One thing that I liked about the TED talk is that I could relate to what the speaker was presenting. Our mind's inner monkey who convinces us to do dumb stuff and the Panic Monster who awakens when were are nearing our job's deadline.

Karen Bodin

2021-11-18 20:56:02 UTC

I learned that there are different emotions when it comes to procrastination like distractions and trying to do something but you keep getting distracted and you can also panic.

Micah Audain -Stennett

2021-11-18 20:56:25 UTC

One thing that I liked from the ted talk is the drawing of the instant Gratification monkey and how he used it to explain procrastination.

Ryan Solomon 811

2021-11-18 20:57:00 UTC

Something I liked about the TED Talk is how he explained what goes on in procrastinators brain without trying to sound really smart and use researched information. Aother thing I liked was how he included examples of his own experiences.

Benita Ndifor

2021-11-18 20:58:58 UTC

One thing i learned from the video is that there are two different type of procrastinators. the two types is that there is the procrastinator that has a deadline and one that doesn't so they put it off for so long because they don't have a deadline. But the ones that have a deadline get it done even though it might not be good they still get it done because there was a deadline.

procrastination is when you wait till the last minute to do an assignment.

Naomi Mbaka 811

Im a a procrastinator. i procrastinate when i find things very easy and short and i feel like i can do it quickly.
