Procrastination is the act of delaying or postponing tasks, often in favour of less important or more enjoyable activities. While it’s something everyone experiences, when it becomes a regular habit, it can seriously hinder your ability to get things done. For business owners and multi-taskers, procrastination can be especially damaging to productivity.

In the fast-paced world of running a business, where every minute counts, procrastination can cause missed opportunities, delayed projects, and burnout.

But here’s the good news: there’s a way to eliminate these headaches and take control of your leave management—without the chaos.
