During school I'd immedietly do all of my assignments. Id spend anywhere from 2 to 6 straight hours getting the entire week of assignments done. By the time I got tired I was done with most of it and had time to do what I wanted. Worked wonders, while everyone else was struggling I was able to get straight A's and work on side projects/video games.
Is the "real" world supposed to be different than this experience?
- jointpdf 5y agoI don’t know what the real world is, but my experience as a chronic procrastinator with ADD was the polar opposite of this. I did assignments on the bus, wrote speeches during the period before I’d have to give them, etc. I’m mildly messed up from these habits now, but I did (mostly, with some spectacular failures) get away with it at the time. If something captured my imagination, like certain writing assignments or my programming classes, then I could hyperfocus.

In college things are pre-defined and you just have to keep in sync, if you do it early like you or late, the tempo stays the same. With work there is no tempo. However what happens in reality is that for agile teams there is a little bit of a tempo. A Sprint, which is usually two weeks. In my experience there is always more work in a Sprint that can be done. The only solution I have found is working, and then letting things settle. If a story takes 3 days and you get done in 4 hours, what do you do?
