The Procrastination Problem

Why Procrastination?

Procrastination is a major issue in today's people and that includes adults to an extent. I focused more on high school/college students when investigating the issue.

Is Procrastination Really Such a Big Deal?

Yes and here's why...

I administered a survey to 22 high school/college students like me to gauge an idea of just how bad procrastination is and here are the results:

This shows that 86.4% of the 22 do "procrastinate". To me, that isn't shocking considering how well I know some of the people who took it, including myself! The 9.1% being not sure to me may count towards the 86 because they might not know that they procrastinate.

Another question that hammers home how much of a problem procrastination is to people. In total 86.4% of students had some sort of negative impact on them when they procrastinated. Whether it be anger, sadness or a bittersweet feeling that, as I know, never ends well.

Distrations in my opinion almost always lead to procrastination and here's proof of that in the poeple around me. Over 90% say that they get distracted at least a little bit to "very often".

Relating to distractions...

Here are the top reasons for procrastination according to my survey:

Watch TV/YouTube/TikTok/etc.
Play video games
Use social media
Disassociate (the disconnection or separation of something from something else or the state of being disconnected)
Listen to music/podcast/etc.

Together, We Can Lessen Procrastination

Yes, I did infact say "lessen". Procrastination will always be around. As long as there is something that you want to do besides work/school/etc. procrastination will come-a-knocking. But fear not, NoPro is here to help.
