Disciplined Procrastination - "Procrascipline" -- Bren at Slacker Manager revisits the previously proposed idea of procrascipline...
It's important to be clear about when and why you engage in disciplined procrastination. To my mind, this is fundamentally different from regular procrastination primarily by virtue of the element of consciousness. Procrascipline demands that you've acknowledged the outstanding problem/question/work at hand and that you’ve got a plan for it. Regular procrastination is simple avoidance, without the element of being conscious about why you’re stalling or what the plan for resolution might be.
Sometimes it's not a matter of an improbable/impossible "yes" or a dismissive "no," but one of thought through "whoa".
