iProcrastinate

I found a new app today called iProcrastinate.  The name made me chuckle because this is one of my worst traits.  As I read the reviews, my mind started to wander, as usual, on the subject of procrastination and why I set myself up to thrive in that kind of environment.  The thrill and rush of racing to beat a deadline elates me, however when I am not in the situation I think about how completely irrational it is to subject myself to that level of stress over and over again.  I realize I compound the problem by letting it carry over into everything to the point that I wonder  if I am night owl or do I stay up most of the night because I just keep PROCRASTINATING going to bed?  Some days I think that I will probably live forever since I will just keep delaying my own death so I can just "get one more thing done first, I can die tomorrow".....  I could analyze this bad habit until I am blue in the face and not get anywhere, and I would like to think that this amazing app, iProcrastinate, is going to turn my life around.  However, I am pretty sure I will most likely just procrastinate organizing everything in the iProscrastinate app or fall prey to another one of my bad traits - distraction.  This will only exacerbate the problem since I will probably tell myself that before I can begin the project (that I have procrastinated starting as long as I possibly can) I need to organize everything in iProcrastinate first.....and so the viscous circle repeats.  Or maybe not.  Maybe iProcrastinate is the "cure"...time will only tell.
