July 5, 2019 by EssaySnark Leave a Comment

EssaySnark don’t know you.

Who is EssaySnark to say?

Ahh, au contraire, little buttercup, EssaySnark DOES know you.

EssaySnark knows your heart.

EssaySnark knows who you are.

And EssaySnark knows that what will cause you the most pain in the next six months’ time comes down to one thing:

 
 
 
 
 
 

PROCRASTINATION

 
 
 
 
 
 

How can we be so sure???

Well lessee….

1. You are reading this.

2. You want to apply to business school.

3. You are human.

You are a procrastinator.

Some of you will suffer ungodly amounts over this; others, just mild or relatively minor suffering — though all of it feels the same to the sufferer.

TIME

So.

We write this today, weeks and even months before the first deadline is upon us, to exhort, implore, entice, plead, and somehow convince.

GET STARTED EARLY.

Like hey! Today is a good day!!

 
 
 
 
 
 
So how are we so convinced that you too will fall into this Procrastination Trap and be subject to suffering? Because we’re writing this on January 4, 2019, when we’re watching the fallen remains of exhausted and sad BSers all over the battlefield of Round 2, and we know that that’s your fate, too, unless you intentionally plot a course of awareness to avoid it.
