For as many years as I can remember, I've been battling the procrastination beast, usually with only spotty luck. Here I will chronicle my battles, and perhaps I can see my own patterns and learn from them. I can also share my triumphs when I have them. I hope that others can learn from these battles and triumphs as well.
