So I have have basically a weekend left of the Easter holidays before im due to go back to college, give or take a few days due to national holidays and bank holidays which mean I don't have to be in college on those days. Now i've not yet fully completed the homework that was set for me to do during the holiday, much less the revision that im supposed to be doing seeing as i have exams to prepare for when the new term at college starts again, mainly thanks to my ability to procrastinate and general laziness, which has resulted in me having 4 days to complete 2 different pieces of homowork plus tweak another one and revise like mad for my exams.
Now i know i deserve no sympathy, its my own fault for not being able to focus myself and completle these tasks in time, but today at least i had some excuses, even though they probably won't help me in the long run as excuses don't beat homework deadlines. First of all, i recieved a call out of the blue from a friend of mine who invited me down to the local park for a kick-about, now while im not really apt when it comes to sport, i had barely been out since the start of the holiday and so jumped at the chance to get out for a while. Now this kick-about eventually resulted in me not getting home till 5PM-ish where i am greeted by another friend who is staying with us while his parents are at the local hospital for a check-up, unfortunatly the friend ends up not leaving till 10PM and because i couldn't bring myself to just abandoning my friend in favour of homework resulted in none of it being done.
Now im hoping that the desperation of only have a few days to do this homework will galvanise me into action as frequently happens when im under pressure, however hope can sometimes be very different from reality....
Question: what galvanises you into action to do things you don't really want to do?
