Technique 7: The Art of Procrastination

Mastering the ancient art of doing nothing

Procrastination is not just a skill, it's a way of life. It's a delicate balance of avoidance, distraction, and creative justification.

Step 1: Create a to-do list, then promptly forget where you put it.

Step 2: Open a new tab in your browser for 'research purposes.'

Step 3: Watch cat videos, or at least pretend to.

Step 4: Declare that you're 'taking a break' to recharge, when in reality, you're just recharging your favorite beverage.

Step 5: Create a complex system of nested folders and subfolders to store your 'work-in-progress' documents, which will never actually be worked on.

And finally, Step 6: Repeat steps 1 through 5 until you've mastered the art of doing nothing.
