The Art of Procrastination
I am perpetually surprised by the things I can come up with to do when I have something big to be working on. This is just one of the ideas that popped into my head. So I decided to hypothesize as to why I am unmotivated to finish this project. For anybody I haven't told..I am studying effects of different characteristics and their effects on car prices.
Reason #1 - Never good enough. I fear that my teachers may be expecting too much from me because of how heavily I researched this topic. Bottom line here is that I cannot possibly live up to the level of what I think they are expecting and instead of attempt I have resigned to quit frustration and lack of effort.
Reason #2 - I could have done better if I knew a few months ago what I know now. This rests in the fact that projects like this should be done over a years time not a few months. I have more data that would have been helpful to me from the beginning. Not to mention the wealth of technique I have gained through this process that could have had aided in producing more specific goals.
Reason #3 - Reasons 1 and 2 combined with laziness and over-it'ness. I am so ready to be done with the BS associated with this paper and the class that I cannot bring myself to finish it. This seems converse to the idea of being over something. IF I hate it so much why do I not just get it out of the way. That is where the laziness comes in.
Well I now intend to go work. On a different note...Thievery Corporation and Kasabian have been in my ear a lot lately and I like it. :-)
If you Finish then you have to stop working.
