"Finicky Fritters For Free !"

Fritters are accounts or excuses people give in order to get away with events where they fail to meet expectations. Below are some examples of Fritters that students come up with when they procrastinate. I found myself smiling when I came across these and suddenly I became nostalgic, thought about all the times when I gave accounts for not doing work. Or having postponed stuff.
Well I think you would also relate to a few of the things that I mention here.

Biological necessity: Hunger is an intrinsic drive. Often a good reason for not finishing the work is “An empty stomach cannot let a person think.”
Cleanliness in the forms of washing, showering are good reasons for not being able to complete the required work.
Fatigue: I’ll get up tomorrow when I’ll be fresh to work.
Rest-on-your-laurels-fritter where the person thinks that he or she has done it before and has been successful hence this time too everything will be just the same.
Commiseration fritter is a common fritter too. People often waste time in trying to get together information from other people and compare what the status of those people is. Whether they have progressed or are they also lagging.
Social Comparison If a student feels that he or she is way ahead of her competitors then the student feels relaxed and thinks that a break is well deserved and the student can stay off work while others work because the final outcome is going to be good (or that’s at least what the student thinks is going to happen)
Higher Good: This strategy suggests that to procrastinate work a person might say that studies are not everything. Values, moral development are also important. An example often quoted is “Even Einstein was not a good student sp failure does not mean that one can never be successful.”
Existential: Something like what-the hell-sort-of difference-will-it-make fritter
Task Based Fritters
Time symmetry fritter, when a person counts the total number of pages or thinks the total number of hours required for finishing a task and allocating each hour for a part of the task. At the same time say while a person is reading an article, the focus is on the number of pages
Scheduling Fritters, wherein the person decided to work at the hour. Like preference to work at 6:00pm rather than 5:40 pm or 6:05 pm.
Preparation related fritters, like the while – I – am- at –it. So like people like to first clean up their work area or such like and then begin work.
Creativity Fitters: The-first-step-is-hardest fritter. Here the initial part of an assigned job takes up most of the time under the pretext that a person requires ‘X’ amount of extra time to come up with novel ideas.

Thus there are many more of these kinds. However what I wish to point out is when you become conscious of all these varieties of fritters I am sure you will stop procrastinating right away!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
