Ace Callwood explains why procrastination is a privilege when we use it mindfully.
Procrastination can be a powerful tool to harness, and also a detriment. It gives us a lens to understand that we can control what we can, and influence the variables of what we can’t control. Procrastinating can help us find our rhythm, or lose it completely.
