So in college

I was a government major, which means I had to write a lot of papers.

Now, when a normal student writes a paper,

they might spread the work out a little like this.

So, you know.

, you get started maybe a little slowly, but you get enough done in the first week

that with some heavier days later on, everything gets done and things stay civil.

And I would want to do that

That would be the plan.

I would have it all ready to go, but then actually, the paper would come along, and then I would kind of do this.

And that would happen every single paper.

But then came my 90 page senior thesis, a paper you're supposed to spend a year on.

It was way too big a project

4So I planned things out, and I decided I kind of had to go something like this. This is how the year would go.

This is how the year would go

So I'd start off light

and I'd bump it up in the middle months,

And then at the end, I would kick it up into high gear. It's just like a little staircase.

How hard could it be to just walk up the stairs No big deal, right

But then funniest thing happened. Those first few months, they came and went

[and I couldn't quite do stuff,

So we had an awesome new revised plan.

And then

then those middle months actually went by

And I didn't really write words.

one monthAnd then two months turned into one month

And then two months turned into one month

Turned into two weeks. And one day I woke up

And one day I woke up with three days until the deadline

Still not having written a word

I wrote 90 pages, over 72 hours, pulling not one but two all nighters.

Humans are not supposed to pull two all niters, sprinted across campus, dove in slow motion and got it in just at the deadline. I thought that was the end of everything.

But a week later I get a call. It's the school. And they say, is this Tim Urban? And I say, yeah.

It was a very, very bad thesis.

Wanted to enjoy that one moment when all of you thought, this guy is amazing.

No, no, it was very, very bad.

Anyway, today I'm a writer blogger guy.

And a couple years ago, I decided to write about procrastination.

My behavior has always perplexed the non procrastinators around me.

And to test this, I found an MRI lab that actually lets me scan both my brains

And the brain of a proven non procrastinator so I could compare them.

And the brain of a proven non procrastinator so I could compare them.

And I actually brought them here to show you today.

And I want you to take a look carefully to see if you can notice a difference. And I know that if you're not a trained

Brain expert, it's not that obvious, but just take a look.

Well, means everything's fine until this happens.

we're going to see if there's anything new in there since

we're gonna go on a YouTube spiral that starts with videos of Richard Feynman

All of that's gonna take a while, so we're

not gonna really have room on the schedule for any work today.

You're having dinner or going to bed or enjoying well, or in leisure tim
