Hi, I'm peter. I am always procrastinating.  I usually do the thing nearly deadline.  Because I like have fun ,don't like work hard.
If no have the "Panic Monster", I would never do the thing.
To stop procrastinating, the best way is make schedule.  If you have a schedule ,you will more efficient.
In schedule,  you can write down everything you have to do and it's deadline.
 As long as you do the thing along the schedule, you are not procrastinator.
That's my opnion.  By the way,
if you lost the schedule, congratulation! you are happier.
