The Art of Doing Nothing (Procrastination Protips: Tip 1)

In the grand tradition of masters of productivity, we proudly present to you... the art of doing absolutely nothing!

It's a delicate dance of avoidance and evasion, a waltz of excuses and justifications, a symphony of procrastination!

Step one: Identify the task at hand and promptly forget where you placed the paper (or laptop, or pen, or anything else related to the task).

This will give you the necessary time to contemplate the meaning of life, the universe, and the fleeting nature of productivity.

Step two: Create a list of reasons why you can't possibly start the task right now. This list should include, but not be limited to:

• My cat needs to be fed (and/or walked, and/or cuddled).
• I have a sudden case of the Mondays.
• I am experiencing a temporary loss of interest in the subject matter.
• I am on the phone with my aunt (who is not actually on the phone with me).

Step three: Repeat steps one and two until the task is no longer relevant or the world has ended.

And that's it! With these simple steps, you too can become a master of the art of doing nothing!
