Post reserved for thought. Will get back to it later. 
Of course that would just amplify the point of the thread. Some people are good procrastinators: they push things till the last minute and do them in a rush to finish as complete as possible. Others are ok procrastinators: they push it off for a little while, but go back eventually and generally do better than the best procrastinators. others are just terrible procrastinators: they finish everything really really early.
Now those fail procrastinators are either: Hella smarter than everyone and just do it cause they're bored and go off and do something else when they're done. OR they're the type that's so smart that they finish their assignment and study some more. A lot of people would like to be the prior, but lots of people are the latter.
But from what i see, most people are a little mix of both: some people finish sort of quickly so they can play. Others play now, think later. I suppose then, it is just a matter of motivation and whether they feel like that they should complete whatever they set out to do. I feel like with the right motivation, anyone can do anything at a given time and in a given time frame. All you need is a fuel for your fire, and if small frames of time is your motivation to finish something, that's how you work and how others work.
Priorities and motivation are the key to procrastination. You lack it all, you procrastinate the best. you have it all, you procrastinate the worst.
