Procrastinate – not again?

“The work you do while you procrastinate is probably the work you should be doing for the rest of your life.” —Jessica Hische

What do you do to fill in the gaps – to take up time – to distract yourself from the task at hand?  I found the quote above and was intrigued by it.  Identify what you do and brain storm turning it into a business.  Here are some examples that I’ve come up with:

Procrastination Action                       Possible Work

Puzzles                                             Detailed problem solver
Email                                                Personal Assistant to others
Surf the net                                      Researcher
Help others with their work              Teacher
Read the news                                  Investigator
Eat                                                   Chef

Your procrastination action can shed light on what would make you happy.  When trying to avoid something we fill our time with something that is easy, fun and not stressful.  Look closely and see what that is.
