Hildegard: People have been playing on the same procrastination theme since the dawning of cultural history. We see these traces everywhere. The ancient Babylonian King Hammurabi incorporated an antiprocrastination measure into his 283 laws by setting a deadline for making a complaint. The ancient Romans gave us the derivatives of the word procrastination, which means to push forward until tomorrow. Two-thousand years ago, the Roman Emperor Marcus Aurelius cautioned against needless delays. (...) two-thousand years from now I'd bet that we'd still find people struggling to contain their procrastination tendencies.
