Procrastination Notes
Use this handout to take notes on the two talks we will watch today. IF you were absent, you need to complete this and give it to Lori. Opening Discussion In small groups, share your responses to the motivation/discipline questions/reading that we did yesterday. Then turn in your Mise en Place notes. Framing: Yesterday, we looked at the idea of Mise en Place, of setting up and preparing your life so that you use your time and resources more efficiently. Today, we’re going to look at one of the enemies of mise en place: procrastination. This is the number one thing I hear from students over and over again when they are not successful. To overcome it, we need to understand it, so the goal for today is to be able to explain WHY people procrastinate, and describe some strategies for overcoming it. Starter: (on your notes document)

This is due on Friday, October 15 at the start of class. That means you should start TODAY! For the rest of class, I want you to think about what organizational system in your life you want to tackle. I’ve seen everything from morning routines, to homework organization, to backpack organization, to packing lunches. Think about something that will make your life run more smoothly.
