TIME MANAGEMENT & PROCRASTINATION
//Under Warnings, Wikihow say, ..."If procrastination is halting your progress along your intended path in life, then it's unhealthy; good procrastination is an aid to uncovering what really motivates you and what makes you enjoy the here and now. If all it does is cause you to give up on anything, then it's self-sabotage rather than procrastination. Be sure to get the balance right and avoid harming your own chances of getting your life well sorted."// (from http://www.wikihow.com/Procrastinate)
