Procrastination
1. Procrastination the practice of carrying out less urgent tasks in preference to more urgent ones, or doing more pleasurable things in place of less pleasurable ones, and thus putting off impending tasks to a later time, sometimes to the "last minute" before a deadline.
Procrastination
I found yourself putting off important tasks over and over again, and Im sure many people procrastinate to some degree – but some are so chronically affected by procrastination that it stops them fulfilling their potential and disrupts their careers.
The key to controlling this destructive habit is to recognize when you start procrastinating, understand why it happens (even to the best of us), and take active steps to manage your time and outcomes better.

· Disorganized : Organized people manage to fend off the temptation, because they will have things like prioritized to-do lists , organized people have planned how long a task will take to do, and will have worked back from that point to identify when they need to get started in order to avoid it being late.
· Feeling overwhelmed by the task : Sometimes I may doubt that have the skills or resources I need, so I seek comfort in doing tasks I know I’m capable of completing. Perfectionists: One final major cause is having underdeveloped decision-making skills. Sometimes I can’t decide what to do, so then I’m likely to put off taking action in case you do the wrong thing.
