You know I was going to post this exact same question/problem, I have had 3 different jobs in the last 4 years, and I enjoy what I do, but I just cant work to deadlines unless they are the exact same day and stuff i just dos and mess about. Its getting very bad now though to be honest - I should be getting better reviews but because I am just trodding along I amn't. Its frustrating cos I can do the work but I just cant focus myself to do it in time and leave it until the last minute ( just like school, homework, college, studying etc ). I really have a bad case of it, I think its partly cos I have good craic at the weekend and on sundays that I think fcuk it cant wait again for the weekend and just "get through" work. I did notice this monday though, having not gone out on the sunday I was more focused on actually working than normal - so I'm thinking drinking may have a part to play in this![]()

Its kinda ironic though, if ye think about it.
Charmingman: its a case of me thinking something will ALWAYS take a shorter time than it actually does, I dont know whether this is laziness on my part to correctly estimate it, or not actually knowing how long something takes or just bad time-management skills but i would go with the middle one moreso, I cant work out at all how long it takes but think it will be grand and i should get it done in a certain amount of time ( cos i know how to do it it wont take me long as oppossed to well actually i dont know how to do it so i better figure it out now and then i can leave till the last minute ) and therefore NEVER properly complete tasks, i get to 90% and then cant get myself to finish them, its very frustrating.

Get a girlfriend who gets annoyed by you not finishing work, and will then take matters into her own hands() and finish what you started herself - now that idea should be worth a major international prize, and probably three days less work a year!
Unless, of course, in knowing that you will only ever do 90% of the work you have to do, knowing that she would complete the remaining 10%, you follow proportionately the logic that you will only get to 10% of what needs to be done, and start getting to 81% of your tasks before quitting.
This leads to this scarey notion: if you are able to find the woman who will continously make up your shortfall, and you work in an arithmetic manner (I think - someone with maths tell me what I am talking about), eventually it may get to a stage where she has to do all 100% of your work, at which point you will have to make the job harder by 10%. If we follow this to its logical apex, this spiral will eventually end up with you having to seriously dick about with the fabric of time and existence, in order to quit what you are at 10% ahead of what you actually need to do.
That would be bad.
Alternatively, send your work my way, as I don't really have anything to do this afternoon, though I don't think anyone has realised yet...
That question was less stupid, though you asked it in a profoundly stupid way.
Help me, Arthur Murphy, you're my only hope!

Adults with attention deficit hyperactivity disorder do 22 fewer days of work per year than people who do not have the condition, a study says.
The research, which looked at 7,000 workers in 10 countries, found an average of 3.5% had ADHD.
