Andrea, yes you are so right about procrastination when it involves creative processes, whether they are in the arts, business approaches, creating dissertations, works of fiction etc. ..... the danger lies in the sublimation of that process in the case we might be facing a more explicit and labour intensive challenge like mastering a musical instrument, or pursuing scientific research, cleaning out the garden shed. In these cases procrastination simply leads to mediocre results, or things not getting done. The subject - so well recognised by perhaps all of us - might be a bit more diverse than the picture (with all respect) you are painting.
Insanity is when the brain runs in loops without a resolve and committing to a problem on a train of thought that’s never going to get you there is intentional insanity. Taking a break slows down the train of thought enough to be able to switch tracks.
I thought this video might actually be about overcoming procrastination. This video just provides a legitimate rationale, for those who are not procrastinating, to take various creativity boost breaks.
Congratulations Andrea on your great work! This is a great TED Talk for all creative minds and artist out there. It really does put some of the puzzle pieces together and I enjoyed working with you on the illustrations. We procrastinated productively over these.
Walk around the city of Rome. Look at its amazing architecture, the eay each street has a purpose, the innovative sewage systems and roads. Study its empire......then walk into any square in the city and watch the countless number of people sat asleep on a bench or looking into space. Beautiful Rome wasn't built on a day, it was built on procrastination, and boy did they do it well. Now compare that to the productivity procrastination hatred systems of the modern day Europe. Those streets and buildings are unfit for purpose and will not last even 100 years
Dejà Touché Vous Vu If good things come to those who wait... How long should it be, before it's too late? Of course you can only reap what you sow. But will you just keep waiting, for something to grow? And, how in the world can the truth set you free, When no one can decide, on what truth to agree? It's popular to say, two wrongs won't make a right. But how can you be robbed, and not make a fight? There is another day, and there is another song. And it is possible, for two rights to make a wrong. Well, I can't imagine there being a bigger bust, When there's no reason to betray a trust. So when the guilty go free, and the innocent must die, Don't forget to remember, those who respect the coldest lie.
You sure are screwed up. Not proceeding with a project/idea, is not always procrastination. Sometimes there's a good/essential reason for it. Don't try to justify procrastination by confusing it for a legitimate reason. Without that reason, it's senseless. Not knowing what that reason is, is different. Maybe you just need to meditate/re-evaluate for a while. That's not procrastinating, and don't say it is.
Dennis R. Levesque she’s just trying to spread a message that we can use procrastination in a good way too when you give a 5 paragraph argumentative essay against it, I’ll consider your opinion 🙄
Actually it is. She is not screwed up she is informed. Though it certainly goes against the modern idea of procrastination. But the word procrastination did not used to be seen as bad until around victorian times. If you paid attention at the beginning of the talk she mentioned Egypt had two words for it. One representing good procrastination and one representing bad. The ancient greeks also had a word equivalent of procrastination and it was only viewed as good. So yes certain types of procrastination are bad but certain types are good and highly valuable in the creative process. Your trying to say the word procrastination is not the right fit is historically inaccurate. Your view of the word is based on modern thinking. But it's roots go back a long time and say differently. Once someone understands procrastination can be good they can focus on controlling the procrastination and doing it in the right ways. You are simply arguing semantics, while on the actual meat of it, is saying the same thing.
did she even day that?? I didn't hear her say "not proceeding with a project is ALWAYS procrastination". I don't think she said anything like that in this entire video at all.
@@the5thYearSeniors Look at the title. Procrastination is not the key to anything except negligence. Don't try to elevate it to level of "contemplation/evaluation", because you'll just procrastinate that, too. That's why stereotypes persist; people procrastinate fixing them.

I love the idea of reversing your mindset that sin procrastination should be productive procrastination
I love you Andrea
The Procrastination is not ahead of us. It has already happened.
Amazing Ted Talk !

If good things come to those who wait...
How long should it be, before it's too late?
Of course you can only reap what you sow.
But will you just keep waiting, for something to grow?
And, how in the world can the truth set you free,
When no one can decide, on what truth to agree?
It's popular to say, two wrongs won't make a right.
But how can you be robbed, and not make a fight?
There is another day, and there is another song.
And it is possible, for two rights to make a wrong.
Well, I can't imagine there being a bigger bust,
When there's no reason to betray a trust.
So when the guilty go free, and the innocent must die,
Don't forget to remember, those who respect the coldest lie.
The excuses will never end.
The Edison example explains the power of the Alpha state of the brain. Nothing to do with procrastination..
