Procrastinator's Creed
- I believe that if anything is worth doing, it would have been done already.
- I firmly believe that tomorrow holds the possibility for new technologies,
astounding discoveries, and a reprieve from my obligations.
- I know that the work cycle is not plan/start/finish, but is wait/plan/plan.
- I obey the law of inverse excuses which demands that the greater the
task to be done, the more insignificant the work that must be done prior to
beginning the greater task.
- I shall always begin, start, initiate, take the first step,and/or write the first
word, when I get around to it.
- I shall always decide not to decide, unless of course I decide to change
my mind.
- I shall meet all of my deadlines directly in proportion to the amount of bodily
injury I could expect to receive from missing them.
- I shall never forget that the probability of a miracle, though infinitesmally
small, is not exactly zero.
- I shall never move quickly, except to avoid more work or find excuses.
- I truly believe that all deadlines are unreasonable regardless of the
amount of time given.
- I will become a member of the ancient Order of Two-Headed Turtles
(the Procrastinator's Society) if they ever get it organized.
- I will never put off until tomorrow, what I can forget about forever.
- I will never rush into a job without a lifetime of consideration.
- If at first I don't succeed, there is always next year.
