Schedule It Or Not Technique 4: The Art of Procrastination

This technique is perfect for those who are masters of the art of doing nothing.

Step 1: Find a more interesting activity to do instead of the one you're supposed to do.

  1. Watch cat videos for at least 30 minutes.
  2. Check social media for "just a little bit" to see what you missed.
  3. Reorganize your sock drawer.

Step 2: Use technology to your advantage.

  1. Send a text message to your boss saying you're on a "break".
  2. Set an auto-response on your email that says you're "out to lunch".
  3. Update your phone's wallpaper to a picture of a beach, so you can "dream" about work while you're not working.
