What is worthwhile carries the struggle of the maker within it. A piece of art or a creation that is wrought into the shape of earned understanding.
Procrastination helps us to be a student of our own reluctance, to understand the hidden darker side of the first enthusiastic idea. To learn what we are afraid of in the endeavour itself, to put an underbelly into the work itself. So that it becomes a living satisfying whole.
To procrastinate is to wrestle with angels, devil and larger entities than our own ideas. But we always have the power and the capability to tell those voices to fuck off.
