Listen Later

Do you ever find yourself doing literally anything to avoid starting something important? Cleaning the flat? Making a playlist? Suddenly very thirsty?
Yep - you're probably procrastinating.

In this episode of English and Beyond, I explore why we put things off (even things we enjoy), how we lie to ourselves about it, and what actually helps us get started. Spoiler: I procrastinated while making this episode too, hence its late arrival.

πŸ’¬ Stay until the end to learn some natural English phrases to describe procrastination.
