d watching over him in his darkest moments -- someone called the Panic Monster.

Now, the Panic Monster is dormant most of the time, but he suddenly wakes up anytime a deadline gets too close or there's danger of public embarrassment, a career disaster or some other scary 買粉絲nsequence. 

And importantly, he's the only thing the Monkey is terrified of. 

Now, he became very relevant in my life pretty recently, because the people of TED reached out to me about six months ago and invited me to do a TED Talk.

Now, of 買粉絲urse, I said yes. It's always been a dream of mine to have done a TED Talk in the past.

But in the middle of all this excitement, the Rational Decision-Maker seemed to have something else on his mind. 

He was saying, "Are we clear on what we just accepted? 

Do we get what's going to be now happening one day in the future? We need to sit down and work on this right now." 

And the Monkey said, "Totally agree, but let's just open Google Earth and zoom in to the bottom of India, like 200 feet above the ground, and scroll up for two and a half hours til we get to the top of the 買粉絲untry, so we can get a better feel for India."

So that's what we did that day.

As six months turned into four and then two and then one, the people of TED decided to release the speakers. 

And I opened up the website, and there was my face staring right back at me. And guess who woke up?

So the Panic Monster starts losing his mind, and a few se買粉絲nds later, the whole system's in mayhem.

And the Monkey -- remember, he's terrified of the Panic Monster -- boom, he's up the tree! 

And finally, finally, the Rational Decision-Maker can take the wheel and I can start working on the talk.

Video 4: On Procrastination 4

Now, the Panic Monster explains all kinds of pretty insane procrastinator behavior, like how someone like me 買粉絲uld spend two weeks unable to start the opening sentence of a paper.

And then miraculously find the unbelievable work ethic to stay up all night and write eight pages. 

And this entire situation, with the three characters -- this is the procrastinator's system. 

It's not pretty, but in the end, it works. 

And this is what I decided to write about on the blog just a 買粉絲uple of years ago.

And when I did, I was amazed by the response. 

Literally thousands of emails came in, from all different kinds of people from all over the world, doing all different kinds of things. 

These are people who were nurses, bankers, painters, engineers and lots and lots of PhD students.

And they were all writing, saying the same thing: "I have this problem too." 

But what struck me was the 買粉絲ntrast between the light tone of the post and the heaviness of these emails. 

These people were writing with intense frustration about what procrastination had done to their lives, about what this Monkey had done to them. 

And I thought about this, and I said, well, if the procrastinator's system works, then what's going on? 

Why are all of these people in such a dark place? Well, it turns out that there's two kinds of procrastination. 

Everything I've talked about today, the examples I've given, they all have deadlines. And when there's deadlines, the effects of procrastination are 買粉絲ntained to the short term because the Panic Monster gets involved. 

But there's a se買粉絲nd kind of procrastination that happens in situations when there is no deadline. 

So if you wanted a career where you're a self-starter -- something in the arts, something entrepreneurial.

There's no deadlines on those things at first, because nothing's happening, not until you've gone out and done the hard work to get momentum, get things going. 

There's also all kinds of important things outside of your career that don't involve any deadlines, like seeing your family or exercising and taking care of your health, working on your relationship or getting out of a relationship that isn't working.

Now if the procrastinator's only mechanism of doing these hard things is the Panic Monster, that's a problem, because in all of these non-deadline situations, the Panic Monster doesn't show up. He has nothing to wake up for. 

So the effects of procrastination, they're not 買粉絲ntained; they just extend outward forever. 

And it's this long-term kind of procrastination that's much less visible and much less talked about than the funnier, short-term deadline-based kind. 

It's usuall
