Procrastination

Sub-Topic: Getting things done

When we pospon respnsabilities, delay something or we're lazy about doing something important; we are procrastinators. It's a bad attitude and often it requires medical treatment.

Luckly, sometimes we have someone who helps us to do all those things that we are skipping.
