An Undiscovered Art

I truly believe there is an art to procrastination. I must first say that there is a great difference between procrastination and laziness. Laziness would be not really wanting to get your work done, and not doing it. This isn't the case with procrastination at all, really. In fact, the art is quite complex.
First you must decide that procrastination is for you, and you can work hard enough to succeed at this. Failure is laziness. To decide if procrastination is for you, if you answer yes to these questions you are allowed to enter the journey of learning the art:
1. When you have 3 hours to work, do you not produce better work than if you just had one?
2. Are you a pressure-driven genius?
3. Do you waste entire days not having fun in order to finish homework you never finish anyway?

If you answered yes, then you should proceed as such:
Figure out what you really want to do to be happy a day that you have a project to do.
Set aside a small amount of time at the last possible minute, drink some caffeine, and do a brilliant job on this project.
Relax and write random blogs about the art of procrastination for the rest of the time that you have because you already have this under control.

If you answered no, you should've stopped reading a long time ago in order to spend hours on homework that you won't get done.

Yes, I am indeed writing this in order to not study for my chemistry exam.
