there are many type of procrastination...
1 the thrill seeker
this type of person only work well when they are in stress situation.They are prone to creating false crises and seek out the rush associated with
waiting until the last minute.they can not complete work before deadline ,they always complete their work at the peak of time.
2. the worrier
this type of people always worry about the work. they think that what they do or try to do always end in mess and the are only best in creating mess, and they always blame their self on small things and they cannot make hard decision.
3.The Perfectionist
they always try to do things perfectly, so they does not do any thing because they always try to do best so they also does not complete task at time.so if they cannot do a task perfectly they cannot do the work at all. or we can say that Perfectionists set such high standards for themselves that they quickly become overwhelmed by the work they need to get done. These types of procrastinators may start work, but they often
do not finish it because they give up when they cannot meet the unrealistic standards they’ve set for themselves. If they cannot do it perfectly,
they don’t want to do it at all.
4. The Over-Doer
they are lazy peoples . they can not complete their work on time.they cannot complete work on time so they get a large amount of work to do in small time and at the end they suck to what to do first.or we can say that Over-Doers aren’t lazy—in fact just the opposite.
These procrastinators have so much going on that they can’t decide what to do first. Because they can’t figure out where to start, they
never start at all,
