The true painful ending would be if the project only took 10 minutes and very little effort, but the killer anxiety and stress blew it WAYYYY out of proportion.

The worst is when you're self aware you're procrastinating but you're so interested in the distraction you keep doing it.

I like pretending that my brain is an entirely separate entity and I don’t actually make bad choices.

Neil Gaimon summarizes this phenomenon with some writing advice he's given over the years. If you find yourself struggling to complete an important task, whether it's a creative one or not, sit in a room and do nothing. Do nothing until your brain itches to do something and then you'll feel like doing the task.

*NOTHING* gets my house cleaner than a strict deadline for something that does not include my house being clean.

And, of course, many of us are watching Ryan when we should be working on something.

I'm literally watching this instead of doing an assignment right now lol

[gustavolrcoelho]

Not trying to increase your stress levels Ryan, but we gonna need that rabbit hole song for tomorrow.

Me procrastinating watching this video:

Seeing Ryan not in front of a green screen is oddly terrifying

[aegisd]

It's amazing how much second hand anxiety I felt because this video is so darn relatable...

[JacktheRah]

The fun part is when you don't know anymore what you're procrastinating from but know deep down there's *something* you're supposed to do. Yeah, that's me right now.

[iBoss]

This is so relatable that I could actually feel the stress

[SpideyWarsStudios]

As someone who is one of the world's foremost demonstrators of procrastination, this is painfully accurate

[jonathanperez]

Literally anything in life is comedic material for Ryan.

[MsAsasi]

"Productive procrastination is still procrastination" Quote of the year!

[TheMridulrathi]

I like to imagine that this video took longer to get released because Ryan picked up 3 hobbies while making it

[thelastdictator]

Ryan George isn't only every character in his videos, he's all of us.

[sharingheart]

A few years ago, my brain realized that my brain does this, so instead, whenever a deadline approaches, we save ourselves all the stress by giving up and accepting the failing grade we deserve.

Ah yes, Ryan reliving the trauma of working for ScreenRant and carrying the entire channel on his back.
