Do you procrastinate?

If so, you are definitely not alone. In one survey, 83% of college students admitted to procrastinating on academic tasks, with 50% admitting to procrastinating at least half of the time.

The tendency to procrastinate represents a lack of self-control.

From a temporal perspective, lack of self-control arises from the fact that our behavior is more heavily influenced by immediate consequences than by delayed consequences.


do you have self-control? got these from my text-Introduction to Learning and Behavior.
is self-control a thing that is difficult to achieve? is self-control = willpower?
