When Procrastination Is a Real Problem

This pieceat Unclutterer about procrastinationstruck a chord with me.

Its a useful reminder to never, ever procrastinate when it comes to proper health and medical care.

Predictable jokes about procrastination aside, your health is one area that deserves your best attention.

If she had waited one more day to seek care, she might well have died.

Fortunately, shes fine now.

And I made my own mistake in this regard, too.

But I delayed getting the X-ray and sure enough, it was a hip problem.

While Im talking about Unclutterer, you may know Erin Doland as the mastermind behind the blog.

And thats not a bad thing by any stretch.

Add reminders and alarms?

From asking silly questions like What does the fox say?

A few more interesting examples from the list:

Show me the trailer for [movie title].

Play me a video of [random idea].

Show me a video of someone opening a can without a can opener.

Find out what song is playing.

What is this song?

or Who is this?

Where is [business name or location]?

Define [word].

Synonyms for [word].

Etymology of [word].

Those are just a few, and the list is long and complete.

One answer, from Maria Gorlatova, says:

Learn economics and get a firm grasp on geopolitics.

Studying engineering teaches you how the physical world works (and yay for that!

), economics and geopolitics teach you how non-physical forces shape the world.

I couldnt agree more.

Happy Monday, everyone.
