Just like me, many students find themselves find themselves postponing activities and this has negative effects on their lives. The act of postponing things for later is called procrastination. Therefore, students should not procrastinate because, it leads to poor academic performance and leads to negative feeling about one self.

They can choose the areas that need attention. It also helps them taking on tasks that matter. When they reading for exams, they will focus on areas that they are poor in. despite of this factors, procrastination has more negative impact and it should not be encouraged on students.
