Inside the mind of a master procrastinator

Inside the mind of a master procrastinator:
https://www.ted.com/talks/tim_urban_inside_the_mind_of_a_master_procrastinator/transcript#t-297625

Three words I learned from the talk

1.Gratification  滿足感; 快樂
definition: pleasure or satisfaction, or something which provides this:

2.propagate: 繁衍; 生殖
definition: to produce young plants or animals

3.procrastinate: 拖延,耽擱
definition: to keep delaying something that must be done, often because it is unpleasant or boring

Summary:
In my opinion, I think each of us is procrastinator in some way, which means there is a monkey in our brain.  However, there is another creature living in our brain that can remind us to do the right things and stop us procrastinating anymore. This is procrastinator's system, which is not pretty but works.
