After reading  the text âlaterâ I came to  realization that I procrastinate myself and I never get work done because Iâm always  distracted by my phone or doing something that is not pertained to what Iâm supposed to be doing. In the story the main character seems to suffer with procrastination a lot because whatever he has to do seems boring and doesnât peak his interest, I can relate to that as well. Like his work reading this text was boring and uninteresting  and I caught myself procrastinating to read the rest of the text because of how bland it was like the author. Around the 9th page of the text is when it got monotonous. It spoke about things I couldnât grasp or understand and the material was foreign to me.  When we come to the facts and figures section, it starts to be a little more intriguing since information that is interesting to know, like the fact Americans submit their taxes late due to procrastination as stated on page 4. The author makes a comparison. An actual experiment to see how participants would respond to receiving money quickly at first versus more slowly. This shows the character. Procrastinators, according to the author, are aware of the difficulties at hand. Even mentions how a writer he knew who was supposed to share his article with him by the time he returned from lunch never did. It was eventually received, though, at a later date. Procrastination is a problem that affects as all and we are all guilty of it. It only gets worse you donât act upon it and take action to decrease it. Also the vocabulary in the text was complex as well.  âIt requires the lever of Archimedes to move this  inert massâ This was very confusing and I didnât understand it very well.
