"Procrastination"

Well, writing something good always entails some form of procrastination. Writing a good essay can always involve some delaying tactics!
I guess that's where I am at the moment, all thinking and no writing.
I simply am at the planning stage, one which takes on a life of it's own. It is almost as if the planning becomes a person.

How do I start? How do I develop this argument? What do I do with this plan?

Clearly I am putting off the inevitable. Final semester essays are due soon and I need to get on with the job.

I hope that I am not the only one who procrastinates every so often, not the one who has a BLANK from time to time?

I am sure that I will have an epiphany any time now and become a writing machine!

The essays will be completed on time! I will get the best mark possible!

Doesn't positive thinking help?

I think this reminds me of a line in a movie. Oh yes I remember now!

I think while writing this I have gained some insight.

My epiphany has developed during the last four lines.

Writing machine here I come!
