  • When Jean becomes chairman of the social committee, she habitually fails to plan and use time wisely in carrying out her responsibilities. When she is unable to get everything together in time for the school dance, her schoolmates are justifiably upset with her. Filmed with a cast of nonprofessionals in Lawrence, Kansas.
    Producer: Centron Productions

    Procrastination is one of my big pet peeves-it drives me NUTS when people put important things off. If I was Jeanne, I would've started getting ready for the party the next day.

    The way she rapidly changes attention and focus and chains of thought, she may be ADHD instead of just a procrastinator.

    Not only is Jean a serious Procrastinator, she must suffer from ADD too, notice her constant shift of attention from one subject to another.
    After growing up in a household with a father who is a serious Procrastinator, I go out of my way not to do it. I get things done immediately if not sooner! I also prefer to associate with people who are the go-getter type. My dad was/is really bad with it even to this day he has not changed and it is so hard to believe he is retired military, I can't stand it! He should watch this!

    • @snakes3425

      As someone who has ADHD, yes it's not fun, your mind is always running at a thousand miles a minute to the point where you become completely scatterbrained, and it's real easy to simply tune out suggestions, get distracted, forget something, and not remember it until the last minute. I've had it happen a lot over my life: getting distracted by something, forgetting assignments and important dates

  • @pearl8661
    @pearl8661 7 ปีที่แล้ว

    "Whaddaya want, mom?!" If I spoke to my mom like that, there would be hell to pay. And I'm a child of the 80's.

  • @snakes3425
    @snakes3425 6 ปีที่แล้ว

    Okay how many of us have actually done this: Put something off to the last minute, oh let's face we've all done it: life gets in the way, or you simply forgot and remembered at the last minute. Happened to me in college a lot, I forgot about a history report until the day before it was due, and spent all night trying to get it done

  • @jacktheripoff1888

    I want to work where Martha Hilliard's Mother works. I want a job where you can take off from work just to bake cookies. Also why wasn't it Martha's responsibility instead of her mother's?

    • @snakes3425
      @snakes3425 6 ปีที่แล้ว

      Her mother is probably a self-employed caterer, or owns a small bakery and she had to cancel a delivery or close her store to bake cookies because of Jean

    In the title it says the year "1952" but if you look closely at the calendar at the 3:38 mark you can see April 1953. Just an observation.

    Always remember to repent of your sins (sin is transgression of YAHUAH’S LAW: Genesis, Exodus, Leviticus, Numbers, & Deuteronomy) And Have Belief On YAHUSHA HAMASHYACH. HE Died and Rose three days later so that you can be forgiven of your sins!
