This
is
the
cycle
of
procrastination,
and
I
promise
you,
we
have
all
been
there.

But
why
do
we
keep
procrastinating
even
when
we
know
it's
bad
for
us?
To
be
clear,
putting
something
off
isn't
always
procrastinating.
Responsible
time
management
requires
deciding
which
tasks
are
important
and
which
ones
can
wait.
Procrastination
is
when
we
avoid
a
task
we
said
we
would
do,
for
no
good
reason,
despite
expecting
our
behavior
to
bring
negative
consequences.
Obviously,
it's
irrational
to
do
something
you
expect
to
harm
you.
But
ironically,
procrastination
is
the
result
of
our
bodies
trying
to
protect
us,
specifically
by
avoiding
a
task
we
see
as
threatening.
When
you
realize
you
need
to
write
that
report,
your
brain
responds
like
it
would
to
any
incoming
threat.
Your
amygdala,
a
set
of
neurons
involved
in
emotional
processing
and
threat
identification,
releases
hormones
including
adrenaline
that
kick
off
a
fear
response.
This
stress-induced
panic
can
overpower
the
impulses
from
your
prefrontal
cortex,
which
typically
help
you
think
long
term
and
regulate
your
emotions.
And
it's
in
the
midst
of
this
fight,
flight,
or
freeze
response
that
you
decide
to
handle
the
threat
by
avoiding
it
in
favor
of
some
less
stressful
task.
This
response
might
seem
extreme—
after
all,
it's
just
a
deadline,
not
a
bear
attack.
But
we're
most
likely
to
procrastinate
tasks
that
evoke
negative
feelings,
such
as
dread,
incompetence,
and
insecurity.
