Procrastination Plague Revisited

Unfortunately this untimely disease can poison even the most organized individuals and business professionals in any industry. It has definitely made its rounds in my office plaguing anyone showing even the slightest hint of laziness.

Procrastination not only hinders our ability to move toward our goals but also affects the quality of our work. Think about it. After the procrastination has run its course and you finally decide to get off your lazy ass there’s always an increased possibility that your interest or desire to complete a project has diminished, therefore affecting the overall quality of work.
For whatever reason we tend to believe “I’m going to get it done sooner or later” the “later” always seems to reign supreme. I started noticing the procrastination plague had welcomed itself at my doormat right about the time I began working on more projects.
At first I thought that maybe I was just too busy to do everything but even if that had been the case I could’ve have just cut back on my workload, right? I had sold myself a wooden nickel — and obviously being overly occupied wasn’t the issue. The issue was that I was putting things off until tomorrow, and when the tomorrow came I would put it off until the next tomorrow. Thus creating a ridiculous to-do list with various tasks and projects that seem to create a busier environment that it really was. Bottom line? Stop putting shit off and get to it NOW!

New Fragrance: Burberry Body

The new fragrance Burberry Body for women made its debut last week in over 150 countries worldwide. I have yet to get my hands on a bottle but certain that this “luxury chypre” will become a popular fall fragrance.

Smells like: fruity composition that begins with notes of fresh green absinthe, peach and freesia. Roses and iris are in the heart, leaning on the base of sandalwood, cashmerean, musk, amber and vanilla.
