Worried about your house’s Feng Shui? Move all the piles of paper or clothes in your house or office into one giant pile. This allows the shui to move smoothly around your things and get the hell out. You can feel safe that most of the shui is gone when your tower falls over.
Procrastinating is the one thing I will not allow you to put off my friends. It is a vital part of the slob lifestyle and if you are going to ever learn to be a really good slob, than this is one trick you’d better perfect. The more you get done, the less you are procrastinating so stop doing things for goodness sake! Take a deep breath, enjoy your life, and ask yourself, “What’s the damn hurry!”
Procrastination can be defined as putting off doing something until the last possible moment. No way. This confused definition of procrastination is the reason that millions of what could be perfectly happy slobs are sitting around right now pulling their hair out and scolding themselves for not being more disciplined. Procrastination is doing something. When you are procrastinating, you are actively taking part in not doing something. So it’s not that you are just sitting there contemplating your navel (not that there’s anything wrong with that if contemplating your navel is what you choose to be doing*)
When you procrastinate, there is generally one, or many, very specific things that you are working very hard not to do. The guilty feeling that goes along with procrastination actually disrupts this active avoidance of tasks, and, therefore, makes you less productive. That’s right. If you let yourself feel guilty about procrastinating, you waste good procrastination time, and you become an unproductive procrastinator. Now that is a true tragedy.
