The Dreamer — This type of procrastinator is someone who enjoys thinking
about ideas and plans. However, they seldom put their plans into action
(осуществляют свой план). They tend to be (склонны быть) highly creative
individuals but find it hard to actually start or finish a task.
The Avoider — This type of procrastinator is scared to take on tasks that they
think they can’t manage or complete. They choose to put off work rather than
be judged (чтобы осудили) by others if they make mistakes or fail to finish
tasks.
The Crisis-Maker — This type of procrastinator deliberately (осознанно)
pushes back work until the last minute. They feel that deadlines are necessary
and they believe that they work best when being forced to rush (спешить).
The Busy Procrastinator — This type of procrastinator has trouble
prioritizing tasks because they either have too many of them or they refuse to
work on tasks they see as below them. Because they don’t know how to choose
the task that’s best for them, they end up postponing or failing to make any
decisions.
Do you recognize yourself in one of the above types?
