You're still young, why are you settling for this life path already? There must be other things you want to do, travel, experience etc before becoming a part of the corporate herd.

Just don't leave half your dissertation until the night before deadline... Probably the least enjoyable night of my life

But some of your best work? One of Sun Tzu's principles is that of fighting on deadly ground. Give your army nothing to retreat to, for example with it's back to the cliff, and they will fight will renewed strength and determination for they have no alternative.

In a similar sense, writers like Thompson and Greene have often said that their best work was done very close to their deadlines, as they were forced to focus on that and nothing else.

It's when I did all my most efficient work definitely. I really struggled to sit down and do more than about half an hour work at a time until right before deadlines

Method to the madness then.



Actually not sure I'm using that in the correct form here, but we'll allow because it's still early and the day is young and productive.

Be happy that you can graduate this year. I was also suppose to graduate, but my school fucked things up and now it's difficult to be motivated and i lost my interest in the thing i study.

Yeah, of course i wanna put it off as long as possible, and i sure as hell don't have a job lined up straight of uni ha. Finishing uni mainly worries me cos to me it means all the fun stuff of my life is over and it's downhill from here ha.

And yeah southstar that's most likely how i will end up doing it haha, I probably do my best work when extremely pressured but it's not good for my mental health lol

I suffer from chronic laziness though, I'm sure a hard worker like mason will have no problems

But it's balanced by the fact that you have money, so can afford to do better things.

You'd have to get a job first though.
