“If there's something you want to try, go do it. Just go have fun.” -Bruce Jeppessen

The reason why procrastination has such a bad reputation is because it does damage—and not just to our relationships but also our own sense of self-worth and productivity.

Moreover, putting things off means those things will add up over time and become big problems that could have been avoided if we had just taken care of them when they were small.

Procrastination is a problem that all of us have struggled with at one time or another. But it's also a problem that, for the most part, we are able to conquer. In this episode Bruce narrates his own procrastination story and the lessons he learned about these experiences. He also answers why we tend to procrastinate, what does procrastination really cost us, how to overcome this habit, is procrastination always bad, and how we should treat ourselves and others during those times that we do procrastinate.
