If It wasn't for my problem I would always be at the top of my class, but no matter what school I go to, I always end up procrastinating. If something is due Wednesday, I never start it until Tuesday night. And then I have to either cram everything into one night or cheat and lie into getting it turned in late. I hate this part about me. How do I beat procrastination?

I'll tell you later...
1 month and 30 days later
Oh yeah... What was I doing?
Anyways, sometimes you gotta force yourself to do it. For example, I have a project due the 7th and I haven't finished reading all the books for it. So on my days off work I'm forcing myself to do it but its so boring. Take it from me, DO NOT DO IB

I usually do the exact same thing XD This isn't a big issue in the long run, just means you have a lot of other things on your mind. You'll finish school even if it takes a while longer than some. Find people you like and make them role models, so in times when you want to do other things, but need to work, think about what they'd do.

I do the EXACT same thing! what helps me is not doing the whole thing at once. Work out the different things you need to do (for example, an essay; plan, write introduction, second paragraph etc.) Then, start with one of the tasks, then take a short break- 10-15 only!!!! That way, if you are anywhere near as lazy asmyself, you are motivated to get it done, as you want another break. :D Also, if you did it this way, start 2 or 3 nights before; that way you can take your time. Another thing that helps me is switching between tasks, for example, 20 minutes on maths homework, then do a bit of history.
Hope this helps! :-)

I literally lock myself in my study room and give myself no option than to complete my homework / study. I find that without my phone or desktop being there, it's so much easier.
