It is now that time to start preparing for the end of the semester. There are so many deadlines that I should be preparing for, however I have prepared myself in advance for many of these to avoid having a last minute cram session. One thing that I have taken away this semester is to plan in advance and not to let anything linger until the last minute.

Procrastination is definitely something that I have always struggled with. I am okay with admitting this, because as they say admission of a problem is half the battle. So although I have not completely broken this habit; I feel like I am much closer to straying away from it.

As a PR professional, procrastination is not a characteristic that you will get you very far and not a trait that you would like to clients or employer to see you exhibit. As a PR professional you should be a self-starter and more importantly and active self starter.

Unsolicited advice from me to you day 13: As a PR intern we should take the initiative in being self-starters and non-procrastinators. Eventually, our passion will be our livelihood. If it doesn’t cut it now – it won’t cut it then. This is just a matter of fact.
