Do you struggle to get down to work?

Do you …

  • put things off?
  • surround yourself with distractions (like email and Facebook)?
  • look for alternative, less important tasks to do?
  • only work with purpose when the deadline is looming?

If the answer is yes, why not come along to our workshop, and find ways to overcome procrastination by:

  • developing an understanding of why you might put things off and ways to tackle it
  • improving your time management
  • working more effectively
  • reducing academic stress
