A Study on Procrastination

” Don’t put off until tomorrow what you can do today.” is good advice,but it is often ignored.A psychologist named piers steel at the University of Calgary in Canada spent 10 years studying Procrastination. He says people tend to wait till the last minute to finish an assignment not because they are too busy or too lazy or perfectionists. It’s mostly because they lack self-confidence. Steel analyzed studies on procrastination, dating back to the 1920s, and found it was a growing problem.He says in 1978, only about 5 percent of Americans thought of themselves as chronic procrastinators while 26 percent do so today. Researchers still don’t understand why some people are more prone to dilly-dallying than others. Some suggest it may be genetic.I’m quote this article from the educational broadcasting system book.I am one of the procrastinators.Although midterm-exam was over, nowdays I have a lot of  assignment to do,like other students.
For example, I must prepare for English semina presentation this assignment due date is next monday.Like other subjects, english semina is very difficult to me.So until now I am put off the assignment. In this case I agree this comment “It’s mostly they? I lack self-confident .However, I must prepare for this assignment in advance,but I wonder that I can do well or I can’t do well. I don’t want to make loss of hope shim young sook professor ,because she is very benevolent professor. I respect her as a professor.
