Calling all ppl who leave things to the last minute

If ur like me and u like to leave things to the last minute and then realize u need to finish that cardigan for tmr then I have an idea.

So the other day (yesterday) I decided that I wanted to wear a crocheted sweater the next day.
So here’s what I did. I went over to le Netflix and I realized that I had 3 episodes left of Ninjago (great show btw you should watch it). And I had 30 rows to do. So, as the delusional person I am I decided to finish one round every 2 minutes.
Of course this depends on how big the round/row is. And I recommend u give urself longer bc I had to pause occasionally to catch up.
But what this did is I had a clear goal. It wasn’t ‘i need to finish this sleeve tonight’. It was ‘i need to finish one round every 2 minutes’

So anyway after all that yapping…the moral of the story is set clear goals and multitasking helps.

Same here, I woke up and told myself I was gonna finish my squid, eat breakfast, do my homework, work on my website, take a shower, eat dinner, then play some video games. But now all I’ve done is my squid and gone on Amazon and Ribblr, and now it’s just about late for breakfast.

That’s why I always am watching a show or listening to a song I know and like. I can set clear goals to finish a certain part by the end of the episode or finish within 5 songs. I also do it so I don’t pass out. Counting makes me sleepy. I have fallen asleep WAY to many times mid row and had to restart something.

This is really good advice lol !
I’ve been trying to keep up with school and test a pattern so I think I’ll try to do some rows while watching a video about what I’m researching :)
