Procrastination - I'll feel better later.

This little something via Michael Totten http://www.michaeltotten.com/ who has often VERY interesting observations about the Middle East, and Lebanon in particular. Always an interesting read.
Anyway, I suspect I'm procrastinating about posting this bit about procrastination. It raises some interesting thoughts about everything from corporate start-ups to ASpie behaviour.

"The most impressive people I know are all terrible procrastinators. So could it be that procrastination isn't always bad? Most people who write about procrastination write about how to cure it. But this is, strictly speaking, impossible. There are an infinite number of things you could be doing. No matter what you work on, you're not working on everything else. So the question is not how to avoid procrastination, but how to procrastinate well.
There are three variants of procrastination, depending on what you do instead of working on something: you could work on (a) nothing, (b) something less important, or © something more important. That last type, I'd argue, is good procrastination.
That's the "absent-minded professor," who forgets to shave, or eat, or even perhaps look where he's going while he's thinking about some interesting question. His mind is absent from the everyday world because it's hard at work in another. That's the sense in which the most impressive people I know are all procrastinators. They're type-C procrastinators: they put off working on small stuff to work on big stuff."

I feel better already. But - what exactly is the "big stuff".
