- Tim Urban knows that procrastination doesn't make sense, but he's never been able to shake his habit of waiting until the last minute to get things done. In this hilarious and insightful talk, Urban takes us on a journey through TH-cam binges, Wikipedia rabbit holes and bouts of staring out the window -- and encourages us to think harder about what we're really procrastinating on, before we run out of time.

TH-cam tagged this as "recommended for you" and I've never felt more personally attacked
You know what? TH-cam recommended this video to me like 3 years ago.
I’ve watched it several times before but this will still be in my recommendation😂😂😂
Never been more insulted about something that's true. -James Acaster, something like that anyway
🤣
hahaha
It's been 4 years that I've kept this video on my "watch later" list, today is the day I'll finally watch it.
Can i have your instagram?
The legend come to life
My husband sent me a link to this 6 months to one year ago, and has asked me countless times if I’ve watched it. Today is my day. Go us 😆
Today is my day
😂😂😂😂😂😂 underrated comment!
I like how he makes it a presentation that could be explained to a 5 year old, but is so profound at the same time.
He drew those pictures right before going on stage.
Truth! If he's anything like me, he was *gonna* do the mri thing, because it sounded like a cool idea a month earlier, but he kept procrastinating and suddenly there wasn't time to fit it in.😉
lol, me
😂😂😂😂
This comment really should be at the top
I would draw something like that too even if I have weeks or months 🙊🙊🙊. I just can't draw.
“If you do something last minute, it only takes a minute to do.”
'Cause a minute is all you'll have.
Bailey Horn this is now my life motto
WOW.
That’s why we do it last minute 😂
Wow, that's brilliant! you should write a book with this title!
I think its been 4 years since Ive watched this video and I keep coming back to it anytime Im suffering heavily from my procrastination. I feel so sad rn yet so understood. This is my comfort video for procrastinating because its reassuring and encouraging knowing Im not the only one with this mess.
To my fellow procrastinators, you keep going!
I, a non-procrastinator, do not understand why some people do, even my husband. He drives me crazy with all his "Oh no, this is due by tomorrow and *you have to help me*". I used to bail him out of his deadline issues all the time but now, if it doesn't hurt me, he's on his own. Does this make me a bad wife? I certainly hope not.
finna motivate me to procrastinate more knowing there’s others doing it
@cheriem432 of course your not a bad wife it's your husbands issue to solve not yours
@@cheriem432 the point about deadline based procrastination was though that it usually works. Yes, you have to work more intensively in a short period of time, but you get things done. Most procrastinators, I would say, feel so bad and shameful about procrastinating until the panic hits that asking for help (and thus exposing the procrastination habit) would be the absolute last resort. And you're right, you shouldn't make it even easier for someone to only engage with the fun and easy.
@cheriem432 Ideally, try to help your husband out with his procrastinating problem (if it's very frequent and detrimental to himself). If he doesn't listen, you are not obliged to help him when he's in a pinch in the future.
TH-cam recommended this 5 years ago and I marked it on watch later list ...after 5 years I'm watching this masterpiece.....
School: I'll do it at home.
Home: I'll just do it at school.
That's one of the most accurate things I have ever seen in my life.
And the cycle repeats
That literally happened with me 2 days ago

😂
Fun fact: he planned this ted talk the night before
legend says he's still planning
@@user-sk7il1ur9s wow :0
that's the reason why the drawing is stick human.
that explains why he's panicking the whole ted talk haha
UNDERRATED COMMENT
this is one of the best TED talks ever
Yes!! I was looking for this comment
I watched this TED talk about 5 years ago and it had quite an impact on me as it actually motivated me to get up and get to work on things that I put off for way too long. And I will start doing this immediately tomorrow.
I was so happy for you, until I got to your last sentence. Now, I'm not.
@@cheriem432 What was the last sentence, I didn't finish reading it.
lollll that was good@@realemperorkuzco
I watched this TED talk this year and the same thing happened but I decided I would do it next year since this year has already started.
Plot Twist: He came up with the entire presentation on the elevator ride up
Lmao
It's y is all hand drawn
I know you're trying to be funny but this is unrealistic since he had a whole presentation and he'd have to set things up with TED.
@@rehenayesmin6126 ik ur trying to get likes from people who hopefully share the same party pooper mentality as you but what's the point in pointing out a flaw in the joke that everyone here is clearly aware of? I mean you already stated that you are clearly aware of the nature of my comment yet proceed to give an assessment on the quality of the joke. Pray tell, did you graduate as a joke critique?
Edit: So you decided to edit your original comment to make yourself look sane and make me, on the other hand, look like the drama queen. Well played coward 👏👏

I'm here because I've procrastinated for weeks (okay, months), have a deadline in the morning, have barely started, totally freaking out, and so I'm turning to this guy for inspiration lmao
what a storyteller. the characters, narrative and the lesson were beautifully delivered.
Plot twist: the reason the drawings look so bad is that he was making this ted talk right before he was on stage.
At the end: Yeah don't worry about these images, I drew them backstage while the guy before me was presenting.
let's be the fun thing for you - i'm a non native english user and i see this on youtube recommendation and i suddenly opened the g translater on new tab , just typed 'procrastinator', understanded the meaning , watched the video ,noticed some of monkey and monster drawings , checkout the comment section, find the famous comment tag (your's) "PLOT TWIST",close the lap , then go to sleep ! that's how ended up my today !
he actually did write a blog post about how he procrastinated on this talk a ton

The Most Re-watchable Ted talk EVER!!
Anyone else here who's always found this TED talk extremely relatable and then got diagnosed with ADHD as a full grown adult? It explains so much😅
Are u on meds now ?
@@moaadkhamlich5611 Only when I'm working. It helps most of the time. Not always though 😅
I was already diagnosed but maybe I did watch this video in the past before I was diagnosed. I am not an adult though. I have to take meds even though I don't want to because I am difficult for my parents off them. I procrastinate while on them but if I missed for a day I would likely be able to do nothing. I wouldn't even be able to read a book or something like that.
ADHD is a cop out diagnosis, especially for adults.
@@slbellue6874What do you mean? Do you mean you can cop out of having ADHD or that ADHD is used to cop out of something you don't what do do?
Real procrastinator adds a tonne of TH-cam videos to “save to watch later” and never end up watching them
how did you know?
I have like 400 and something in my watch later I need to remove it all 😔✋
@Angelique bro wtf
... i have 1653 videos in my watch later playlist...
Around 20 000, many playlists, some of them well organized. I'm currently deleting similar amount of Chrome bookmarks, though.
I think my monkey is not scared of the panic monster anymore.
Youssef Rashed yup

I wish all of you good luck trying to catch that fucking wheel again
Same problem
That tends to happen when their meetings become too frequent
Was assigned this by a teacher, and here I am watching it while scrolling through online stores instead of writing. I hear the panic monster stirring in its sleep.
It is happening folks, the future of work is being redesigned. Yes, More tech companies wants to fire more workers from next week: "The third wave is going to happen next week. That affects everybody in the biz teams, including in my organization. It's just a time of great anxiety and uncertainty" Says Meta President.
Time and tide will not wait for any person. That means we must pay attention to how new technologies, and specifically AI, will make it easier for companies to become more efficient. Simply, this companies may not need a lot of workers, your bank may not need many staff. Your insurer may not need many workers. And the list keeps growing.
It has nothing to do with AI. Economic distress in America is enormous. Many banks have gone under. Inflation is biting harder. Ukrain miscalculation is obvious. Facebook has been using AI in most of its features and products for more than 15 years now, so Ai has nothing to do with it. They embarked on unprofitable projects. And over hired. Apple has never laid off employees despite the economic downturn. They did well in hiring and never had failed projects. Metaverse failed. Gaming projects failed. Fintech, Lira failed. In the last 20 months, Sanbberg left, nobody is there to "tame the lion"
Most Tech companies went woke: hired talents in order to prevent competitors from having access, they kept them idle, just to hijack a pool of talent. Over hired without proper assessment and protection. The existing projects couldn't turn in expected revenue, even before inflation war in USA set it. Let's put it in perspective without blaming AI. 95% of big tech have been using AI in the last 15 years. Building a passive income is a real hedge against inflation. Such is a thing that won't fail when the govt and the big tech fails.

I wish I could tackle your submission but I already threw in the towel before I read the last line. I give it to you on this. I'm very interested in building a passive income but it seems like I will need a lot of coaching as I do not posses the required expertise. You on the other hand seem very well knowledgeable in that field, can you give out some tips on getting started with passive income or can you recommend a personal financial coach?

I really admire his way of talking here; hats off to keep it all engaging, fun and informative at the same time
He looks directly into the camera when he says "We all need to take a long hard look at that calendar." He is deliberately speaking to each of us directly. Really excellent talk. I'm going to spend the next three hours rewatching this speech until I stop procrastinating :)
When he said "procrastination is the worst when there is no deadline" I really felt that
Yeah I can really relate
Yeah lockdown is doing weird things to my motivation 😅 the panic monster is always lurking because I don't have a job at the moment to at least give me that end of day satisfaction. So gotta keep changing things up to stay sane 💁♂️😂
The worst thing
UGH I'm still procrastinating doing what I want to do. It just takes time.
Planet Xtreme i’m finding you everywhere
When you procrastinate by watching this video but make it worse by reading every single comment

AAAAH, YOU GOT ME. OK, I'll go pay my bills and get my car worked on now. Thanks, my Panic Monster friend.
Its me...😂😂

you didnt have to hurt me like that
My favourite TED talk of all time, I always come back to it. Life changing insights.
This is one video I revisit time and again. Every single time I just amazed on how captivating it is!
I feel like there's a reason his presentation is hand drawn-
Lmao right
😂😅🤣🤣😅😅
I feel it.
no! It couldnt be! It's so beautiful and artistic
Yes! I bet he is an amazing artist, but he was scribbling those out 5 minutes before taking the stage.
I know this because the panic monster is my best friend.
plot twist: he wrote the speech in the car on the way to the conference
Amen
Yup. And the solution bit? Still waiting....
True, but anything is possible with the power of PRocRaStinAtiON ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)
Shreya hand drawn on notes app ...just before 5 minutes..😏
Plot twist: he wrote this speech because he procrastinated so much and didn’t come up with other stuff and just talked his way out of it by telling why it happened. But he did it brilliantly
I have never heard such an accurate description of my brain as this. Pretty much everything he says throughout the video is me my whole life. I've rewatched it so many times now.
This is probably the most lightest, breeziest TED talks I've ever seen! Only Tim Urban can deliver a concept so complex in such light and hearty nature. 😃
A procrastinator's favorite day of the week is tomorrow.

This is one of the most relatable videos I have ever watched. It perfectly summed up everything that I think in a way that anyone could understand.
I'm procrastinating on 3 things simultaneously by writing this. I'll get back to work now.
As a procrastinator itself, i find it relatable with my life since i have been doing it starting teenager. Yes, its difficult to remove the bad habit but like the speaker said, everyone has the procrastination except how they manage to control it.
“Inside the mind of master procrastinator”
Me: adds to “watch later”
I did that too
😂😂😂
i feel attacked
Hilarious 😂😂😂😂😂
I have 1991 unwatchted videos in my Watch Later
TH-cam: “inside the mind of a master procrastinator”
33 Million people: wow, my assignments can wait, lemme watch this.
Excuses I make to myself when I procrastinate:
"I'll have time later" (when I won't)
"I'm still brainstorming" (When I've spent 75% of the project "brainstorming")
"I'll start soon"
"After I finish this game"
"I'll just have a short break"
"It's not that much work"
"If it gets bad I'll request a due date extension"
"I've earned a mental health break, I'll just do it in an hour" (When I've done nothing to earn a mental health break and I certainly know I won't do it in an hour)
"I'm done with my homework" (When I myself know I'm not)
I've even gone as far as to purposefully disconnect my internet or "lose" my school bag just to have an excuse to not do work.
Why I lie to myself when I know it's a lie is beyond me, it's an unhealthy and stupid habit of mine but I can't get rid of it.

To anyone relating to this: please look into whether or not you have ADHD. It's not always like the stereotype, and, if you *do* have it... It may just stop a lifetime of shame, guilt, frustration, thinking you're stupid or lazy, ect. Just consider it, before you realize that all this time, it simply wasn't your fault. Stay safe c:
Was thinking the same thing. Executive disfunction and dopamine disregulation is often overlooked but a big part of ADHD
Thank you so much I was looking for this comment..
I related to this first time I watched this and now I’ve been diagnosed with ADHD. It’s been a wild ride.
@@oppenheimer11 Well, I just got diagnosed this year so I’m still learning. Medication can help but having strategies to help deal with it helps the other part. Talk to a doctor about it and they will help you to find someone to test you. The channel I go to for strategies is HowToADHD. They have helped me quite a bit. Also a doctor can prescribe medication for ADHD. I take a non-stimulant medication. Your doctor can help you figure out if stimulants or non-stimulants help you more. They typically try a non-stimulant first because those are less heavy on the heart. Stimulants regulate heart rate while non-stimulants tend to work on the mind. However, this can vary from person to person. Talking to a doctor is a good first step and checking out that ADHD channel can help too.
@@oppenheimer11 There's no way to really get rid of it, since it's a type of neurodiversity (basically, it's just how your brain functions). However, you could look into behavioral therapy (with a psychologist who specializes in ADHD) and/or go to a psychiatrist and ask about a possible diagnosis and farmacological treatment; both of those at the same time seem to be of good help to many people :>
Magically, watching this is the homework. I procrastinated the homework for a month.
Really the worst part of being a procastinator is the guilt you endure everyday. Man it legit hurts.
i relate so hard
Dude I got like A TON OF CRAP DUE TOMORROW NIGHT
But you´ve gotta see the chance in that. If this feeling grows and grows it´ll maybe one day (hehe) give you enough energy to change things. Try to imagine yourself 5, 10, 15 years ahead if you dont make a change at all. Let that vision haunt you. If you manage to feel desire instead of resentment, you can do it.
Procrastination comes to an end after the fear of doing something transforms itself into the fear of never doing anything.
I care so much but I dont try bc idk

@Anifco67 Sorry, i'll have to disagree with it.
When you are a procrastinator, you are kind of perfectionist. Your mind wants certain, specific set up before it feels comfortable to do it. Also, one little discomfort in your task, can push you away from it, and it might take you months or years to come back to it. It's real, it happens.
I'll have to wait until 6 then......
Usman Saadat i can confirm. As a truck driver i want to follow my schedule. If im early ill do other things than i need to and if im late, even a minute im starving. I cant think of what the goal was then or where i was actually going untill i got it back on schedule or i forgave it. But its really hard
£Wow} Tis be Ta TRUTH SO!
BUT T'Ending Here is Too DEp...... £;)💂👸
That life calendar is a slap in the face.
Explaining the procastinator mind in metaphorical way is very good and it is easy to conceive the information . I really enjoyed this ted talk.
Remember kids; If you wait until the last minute, it only takes a minute to do
Wise words, truly wise words
that was a good one

Several of my friends wait until an hour before something is due and then just grind until they finish it. It only takes and hour if you have only an hour 😅

The worst feeling is being in the dark playground and something makes you think of the stuff you have to do. You just get that quick hit of anxiety.
Yeah :(

That's the panic monster heading your way
It means you’re not a real procrastinator. A real procrastinator doesn’t care he cares about commenting video on TH-cam (like me).
This video has been on my 'watch later' list for years. Funny that I procrastinate watching a video about procrastination. Decided to finally watch it because I'm trying to change, and this is sort of a symbol.
I really love this Ted Talk. I come back now and again while I'm procrastinating to become inspired to start whatever I'm supposed to be working on, and it really helps! Thank you very much :D
