Are you sure that you didn't get into Personal Sabotage by mistake instead of Personal Development? That is the strangest description of PD I have ever come across.



A couple of years ago, I saw a movie with John Travolta and Scarlett Johansen. It has a title like "The Love Song of Bobby Long" or something similar.

Travolta plays an ex-academic, now alcoholic trying to help Scarlett get into college. In one scene he defines the word procrastination for her as:

"To drag one's ass in such a pathetic manner as to ensure one's place in life as a loser."

Since procrastination has been something I have struggled with, I wrote it down.
