View Full Version : Are You Sabotaging Yourself?
I found this in the Parade:
Do you procrastinate and constantly put things off?
Do you miss deadlines?
Do you hold back rather than engage fully and passionately in your life?
Do you fail to complete projects or tasks?
Do you try to get by with the least possibly amount of effort?
Do you quit things jusrt as you begin to succeed at them?
Are you stuck in what you thought wuld be a temporary situation?
Do you blame others or bad luck when you don't succeed?
Do you get an itchy or uncomfortable feelings inside when you thin about what you're making of your life?
I actually answered yes to a lot of those things ... and most of them are true. Anyone else relate to one or more of those?

Everyone experiences at least one of those things in their life. I used to be a huge procrastinator, but once I got into highschool I quit. It's not worth it.
Do you blame others or bad luck when you don't succeed?
Yes. A lot, too. Heh heh... :(

I can say yes to alot of those.
Do you blame others or bad luck when you don't succeed?
Yea, thats one of my big problems too. Usually I depend on friends to study for tests so I can cheat off them later ... and it doesn't work :( I dunno ... I keep telling myself I'll improve but things keep going down the gutter.

Guess what: FUCK PARADE.
Douchebags. Giving people simple questions, knowing most people will answer yes, and telling them they are ruining their lives.

What the hell? Jeez Kliq no wonder you have a 2.4, or whatever you said you have. Get your act together, man.
You know what you should do? You should not go on the internet for three whole days. I've done that before a few times. It really makes you want to do something different.

I haven't studied in all of high school, I'm failing english right now because I haven't handed anything in, and I'm the laziest person I know. I even won an award for being lazy last year :)

Yea, beleive it or not I don't get on as much anymore. I got track practice until 5:30 or six. I usually get home, eat ... play Command and Conquer, get on the boards real quick, and then sleep.

"I'm Trying To Tell You Now It's Sabotage
Why; Our Backs Are Now Against The Wall
Listen All Of Y'all It's A Sabotage"

I said yes to the first five

I am the laziest person I know and I wouldn't have it any other way. Applying yourself is for suckers. The way I look at it: Why work any harder than you need to? I work smart, not hard.
