Procrastination, as we all know, is the tendency to put things off. On the other hand, precrastination is when we rush to get through something as quickly as possible. Both choices can cost us wasted time and effort if we fail to approach our work rationally.
In a recent study, students were asked to pick a bucket to carry across a finish line. Surprisingly, many selected the bucket closest to them rather than the one nearest the final destination, even though that meant carrying the load further. Yet another study found that precrastination can be just as counterproductive as procrastination.
If you take pride in jumping on each new task without delay, you may want to think twice. Try these suggestions for getting precrastination under control.
Whether you’re toting around buckets or running a business, planning your work will help you get more done. Establish priorities, and keep the big picture in mind. Once you realize that you may be creating extra work for yourself, you can turn the situation around. You’ll find it easier to replace both precrastination and procrastination with more rational decisions.
