Tim Urban: What Are You Procrastinating About? [TED Video]

Are you a rational decision-maker? Or an instant gratification monkey?

In his funny February 2016 TED talk, writer Tim Urban explains what makes us procrastinate, as he discusses the dark playground, panic monster, and two types of procrastination.

The video is short, less than 15 minutes. I hope you enjoy his talk!
