I'm most definitely a procrastinator ... as a writer (and former newspaper journalist), I really appreciate and enjoy deadlines. They force me to focus. I enjoy the thrill of almost being late or missing a deadline.
Of course, I wonder ... what if I didn't wait until the last minute to write that paper, or article, or big hairy project due on Monday at 8 a.m. (and it's Sunday at midnight) ... how much better would it be?
43Folders has a great post on a formula about tackling procrastination called the "10+2)*5" ...
It goes like this:
Do 10 minutes of focused work
Then take 2 minutes of goofing off
Perscription: 5 times an hour
I like it ...
