The Science Behind Procrastination -- and How to Overcome It

Of course, if you're a self-proclaimed procrastinator, you're not alone -- a good 20% of adults consider themselves chronic procrastinators. But all of that persistent stalling eventually comes at a cost -- to employers, that is. In fact, the cost of a single procrastinator at the office is estimated at nearly $10,400 per year. Ouch.
