procrastination

Establishing an environment in which the creative juices can flow.
My best work is always done at the last minute, whether it be working on a project or studying for a test. I just take my time, and the ideas begin to flow.

Procrastination

Leaving things off until the very last minute, or completely blowing them off, regardless of the consequences.
Procrastination is knowing you have a really important paper due tomorrow, but you just can't find the motivation to do the work. It's already 3 am, and you still haven't done anything. Then you decide you're too tired and go to bed, figuring it won't be that bad to turn it in a day late. This situation can repeat itself many a time.

I need to write this term paper but before I get started on that I should work out, go grocery shopping, do the laundry, do my readings for the week, and check Facebook... Productive procrastination.

procrastination

Work pays off later. Procrastination pays off now. The cycle of work in reverse: you feel good lounging around but you realized you screwed up later.
