This is very good advice.
I am the procrastination type, but I have lots of friends who aren't, and I've watched too many of them burn themselves out. Some of them are miles smarter than me, and far more hard-working, but my innate laziness and procrastination have actually given me an edge.
- zamalek 11y agoI became a bad procrastinator due to overworking myself and almost got a formal verbal warning for it (more of an informal fix your shit warning happened). At the time I had over 1 month [effective] leave "saved" up; I took it. I came back and became the exact opposite - by a very substantial degree. It felt like I was 20 again: I had all the brains, guts and dedication that got me hired in the first place. Burn out can really mess you up - far worse than being a plain-old incompetent bad hire.
