Sometimes, I wait awhile before getting around to things because the deadlines are motivating. Is there anyone else like this? For example, once, in college, I waited until the night before the due date for a lengthy research paper. I just went to the library and banged it out in a magical scholarship binge.

In biglaw there's no such thing as procrastination since everything in biglaw is a fire drill. Yay me!

i procrastinate in biglaw, particularly when i see a slow stretch coming up. i start holding back work and letting it go until the next day, week, etc.

inevitably, within that timeframe a true fire drill comes up and im fucked up the ass and sitting on my couch at 11 pm working.

I procrastinate only when I care about the person on the other side of the assignment & want to do well. I'm motivated only by hatred and destroying an external object. It's best to just work on a plan, without any particular motivation to impress or humiliate.

Nice man. You've never studied really hard for something and came up short? Sometimes, in high school before I knew how to study effectively, I would study for a chemistry test or something and get everything wrong on my own. Then I'd talk to the class ahead of me on the schedule and find out what the answers were. Those 5 minute hallway discussions always helped more than hours and hours of studiously pouring over the formulas in the chemistry textbook did.

not to sound like a dick, but never. one of my strengths is i know how to help myself (resourcefulness) so in that scenario i would've ditched the textbook and dug through the recesses of the internet for whatever i didn't understand. ironically i think procrastination helped me become more resourceful.

How often do people in this thread apologize for responding late in work emails? As an associate and the first couple years inhouse I used to hold it back as like a true marker of when I thought the recipients needed to know that I was aware they might've been thinking badly about me. Now it's basically a macro that auto-populates into every email I send like the confidential communications disclaimer.

lifehack: send a "I got your message and I'm going to get back to you as soon as I can, I'm just very busy right now" email. It works wonders. 99% of the time people don't give a fuck, they just want to know that whatever bullshit they asked you about is on your to-do list.

Being able to function as a serial procrastinator is the mark of a good attorney. Only a bug person robot could show up to work every day and put the same level of effort into their practice for 35+ years. When you're on, you're unbeatable, but when you're off, you're incapable of returning an Email. My mentors were all like this.
