Managers can handle procrastination in a variety of ways. The challenge is to find the one that suits your management style. It sounds like you haven't yet.

For some, tackling items that most often induce procrastination first works well. For others, scheduling specific times to perform the tasks can be helpful, as long as you agree with yourself not to reschedule it (hello? You're procrastinating again!)

Before you feel procrastination coming on, ask yourself these important queries:

1. What will happen if I don't deal with this now/today?
2. Will not dealing with this affect others?
3. Will not dealing with this affect how my performance is perceived?
