About this listen
This "Wait But Why" article explores the phenomenon of procrastination by personifying it as a struggle between two parts of the procrastinator's brain: the Rational Decision-Maker and the Instant Gratification Monkey.

The article ends by highlighting the negative consequences of procrastination and suggesting that change is necessary for a happier and more fulfilling life.
