Ever notice how people often think an urgent matter is an emergency, or worse yet, something important to them is urgent despite there being no actual urgency?
We are told all of our lives not to procrastinate because that's a moral failing. But what if it's not procrastination? What if it's simply recognizing the actual urgency of tasks and balancing them with the human need for rest?
Procrastination has done me more good than harm in my life. I'm going to continue utilizing that skill, because yes, it is in fact a skill.

@meadow@lgbtqia.space "Procrastination has done me more good than harm in my life." I feel seen. Oftentimes my gut tells me not to rush. Then something happens that would have adversely affected the situation I did not rush in to. Other times I ignore my gut and do rush in, and the something happens that does adversely affect the situation. this has been validating of both my gut feelings and the power of procrastination.
