Introdution

Tim urban told us when he was in college, he often waited until the last minute to write the report because of procrastination. He know procrastination is meaningless, but he can’t control it. So he wants everyone to see the difference between the brains of procrastination and those without procrastination. And he also feels that procrastination will waste a lot of time, we should consider this issue carefully.
