Procrastination Techniques

Meetings are for suckers. Unless you can turn them into an opportunity for personal development. Here are some techniques for doing just that:

1. Pretend to be a professional

Act like you know what you're doing, even if you have no idea what you're doing. Confidence is key. Read more about the art of pretending.

2. Take a break

Meetings are long. And boring. So, just take a break. Grab a snack, check your email, or play some solitaire. Learn more about break-taking.

3. Use the whiteboard as a canvas

Meetings can be a great opportunity to practice your art skills. Use the whiteboard to draw whatever you want. Just don't get too carried away. View some examples of whiteboard masterpieces.

4. Make up a task list

Meetings are the perfect opportunity to create new tasks for yourself. Just make up whatever you want. Learn more about creating fictional tasks.

That's it for today's meeting. Thanks for playing along.
