For years and years procrastination has been a bad trait, weeded out by self help books and generally been associated with laziness. In my opinion, procrastination can be quite an honorable trait and even bring you fame and fortune.

Un-thought of by many, procrastination has one good point, and this point is what brings the power to the art of procrastination. The point is "What do you do when you procrastinate?" Have you ever thought about this? Hmm?

Care for an example, I like to consider myself the best at procrastinating. If I do not want to do something like doing the household chores, I work on my blog. If I do not want to do work that I really need done, I work on my blog. If I hate doing something, 9 times out of 10 I will procrastinate by working on my blog. It is quite common that you will have an activity that you will always resort to when you are procrastinating.

When you procrastinate, you can brainstorm how to use this to your advantage. If you are anything like me, you will procrastinate and avoid doing the boring brainstorming task at hand. (I find myself working on my blog again). I suddenly decided to allow myself to procrastinate - I did nothing but working on my blog.

One would tend to think that constantly allowing yourself to procrastinate would produce no results. After all the hours I spent working on my blog, a passion for photoshopping [hehehehehe...] formed.

For you to be the best at something, you need 2 things. A desire to do it and the time to change your desire into reality. When you procrastinate, you do what you want for as long as you want. This provides the perfect situation for you to be the best.

Forget looking for something to be good at, use what you learn from procrastination to your advantage :))
