What I’ve learned about procrastination
I had a huge project due for one of my classes, and I had procrastinated so much that I ended up having to do it all in one night. It was a big part of my grade and involved creating a slide show and a script plus presenting the project to several people before turning it in.
The night before the due date, I was stressed out but still working on it steadily, when the Wi-Fi in my dorm shut off. I wasn’t even halfway done! Normally, whenever this happened, I would just use my phone as a hot spot, but that wasn’t working either. I broke down. I called my parents and told them everything. They weren’t able to help me with my presentation, since they live in another state, but they did help me in another way. They reminded me that I could get quiet and listen for an answer from God, just like I’d learned to do in the Christian Science Sunday School.
