Structured Procrastination: Harness avoidance to succeed

from iProcrastinate Podcast

Perhaps the most frequently read essay on the Internet about procrastination, is Professor John Perry's (Stanford University) piece entitled, "Structured Procrastination." In this podcast I summarize Prof. Perry's argument and reflect on its strengths and the limitation of this approach. I know you'll like it, as Prof. Perry writes about how we can harness our task avoidance to actually get things done! In Perry's words, "what could be more noble than using one character flaw to offset the bad effects of another?"You can read Prof. Perry's essay at structuredprocrastination.com (you can even buy the t-shirt!).You can learn more about procrastination at procrastination.ca.
