    Now now now, this is a very sensitive issue.

    It has nothing to do with praying, most Muslim procrastinators are good at praying on time wal-hamdulillaah.

    Re: Procrastinators!

    I say Yes but it is not easy. I find it will usually require a friend or family member to keep me in check from time-to-time.

    Unicorns have everything to do with everything. Thats how it is.

    najm, thank you for the reminder, I think Guven was in great need of it.

    Cern-I suppose that would be good, though I've noticed procrastinators choose fellow procrastinators as friends. As for family, hmmm.

    Re: Procrastinators!

    There must be.
    When I put my mind to it I'll get down and get on with the task at hand, complete it, forget about it and then be reminded just before hand in, at which point I've forgotten to edit the text or whatever. Sometimes.
    However, me being on here and playing around with my blog is a means of procrastination. Big time.
    I pray my salaat and recite Qur'an on a daily basis. This still doesn't stop me from procrastinating with regards to my workload.
    I have no idea if it's got anything to do with feeling that I'm on the wrong course.
    I originally toyed with the idea of an English lit. degree. Then thought, what the heck am I going to do with it?
    Rah. There. Must. Be. A. Cure. <_<

    LOL! Musaafirah-I know exactly what you mean! It can't be to do with the course you're in because all the people I meet say the same thing lool. And your right, its not everything that is left to the last minute. Its just assignment, work related stuff, studies etc. I'm avoiding assignments as we talk lol.

    I've always wanted a unicorn lol

    Guven-Join the club!

    That would include majority of the members here

    lool I can rarely be bothered to post yet alone do anything else. LOL! You do have ages lol , I only start to panic about 2/3 days before deadline. And its not the sort of panicking that is followed by work, I just tell everyone I'm running out of time and that I should do some work then I do other people's work (makes me feel better) lol.

    Does anyone have Islamic related stuff on this?

    No.. that's just encouraging a bad situation in my opinion.. procrastination is dangerous and I think everyone 'suffers' from it at one point or another and it is very hard to rid of.. it is basically just pure laziness I think.. I cannot give much advice for this, you could say I am in need of advice for this, other than 'force yourself'.

    Should I seek a source of law other than God, when it is He Who has sent down unto you the Book (Qur'an) fully explained? And those whom We have given them the Book know that it has been sent down from the Lord with truth, so be not of those in doubt.

    unless it's important enough for you to do it, you won't, as simple as that. try getting involved in whatever you want done, otherwise your doing something half heatedly and wasting your time.
    HW's are an exception, I never do those until they were almost due .

    SubhaanAllah! Lets not encourage procastinatio, it has very bad effects.

    Heres the thread:

    I have beaten it many times before, but habits die hard. SubhaanAllah! Stay cautious and be on you guard always.

    Procastinating is not a disease. It's a deed. You can stop doing it... But you can't cure it, you know? Simply because there's nothing to cure.

    Hmm, I beg to differ. A disease doesn't necessarly have to show physical symptoms. Procrastinators tend to be very aware of their actions and they do try their utmost best to over come it but they just can't. If this is not in need of help, truly I don't think anything is.

    I have beaten it many times before


    That is a positive feedback, jazaakallaah khayr for the link.
