To still feel productive and get that high from getting stuff done. I honestly spend hours and hours formatting my reports/papers. I think, I got a few compliments in the past (just the average kind people say when it's clear someone put effort into something) and that solidified my procrastination.

It's usually at least a 2:1 ratio of formatting to actually writing/researching content...

I need help...

Ah, I do the same with figures! Hours spent just to aling them perfectly
