There are some days when you have so much work and a deadline to meet, but no desire to get work done. If you are the one procrastinating, tell yourself that you need to get the work done or you will not be able to turn in proper work. If your friend is having procrastination issues, ask them how much work they have got done, when their deadline is, and encourage them to get started on work or they will regret having to do everything at the last minute. The more persistent you are at getting them to work, the higher the chance you will annoy them into working.
