Banish Procrastination...the Cult of Done Manifesto

Procrastination… Life is
Too
…a familiar term...everyone recognizes Short
it - putting off things that need to be To
done. I used to explain how I worked Wait
better under pressure, saying I couldn’t For
do my best work until the very last Someday!
minute. The explanation seemed to be
a honorable excuse for staying up all
hours of the night to complete a paper,
a project, etc.

Life is
Too
The truth is I was a procrastinator . . .
Short
avoiding the responsibility and tasks
To
required, but trying to dress it up nicely
Wait
by calling it working under pressure. It
For
was procrastination, plain and simple,
Someday!
not a noble creative spurt that only
came at the wee hours of the morning.



Life is
Procrastination is wiped away when Too
you take action and move forward to Short
complete something, even if it’s not To
absolutely perfect or right. Ask any Wait
writer, musician, or artist if they are For
satisfied with their finished piece and Someday!
they will tell you they always see
something else they want to change in
the work.

Procrastination is the result of over-

When I read the “Cult of Done
Short
Manifesto”, created by Bre Pettis and
To
Kio Stark, I realized how my
Wait
procrastination was the result of being
For
paralyzed by trying to get everything
Someday!
perfect before declaring it final.

This is for all the procrastinators who Short
have unfinished projects and dreams To
that never get done. May the Cult of Wait
Done Manifesto help you banish For
procrastination and finish one thing in Someday!
order to move on to the next.
