Procrastination

I'm starting to see I have a serious problem with procrastinating. I mean really serious. It's getting in the way of all the things I want to do and for some reason I can't get a grip on it!!!

The worst is college. I went back to college last year and I am so thankful I can afford to do this. I'm getting help from family to do this and they are so generous to pay for me. That makes this even worse. I flunked two courses just simple from procrastinating past my deadlines. I tried again and aced my next semester. Then the one after, same thing missed my deadlines flunked. I took some time off to refocus. that's when family offered to pay and I went back this semester. I started off fabulous and more determined than ever. But here I am wasting my time on cafemom of all things when I should have finished work that was due two weeks ago. I still have time to make it up. I planned to do it over the weekend but didn't. Then last night planned do it this morning and didn't. I don't even understand what is causing this but I'm concerned how to fix it. I keep putting stuff off and then suddenly, I'm out of time!! If I even manage to pass my courses and graduate how will I manage to focus on job deadlines??? I already had an issue with that too in the past with a previous job.

When I finally push myself into doing what I'm supposed to I always do great. People tell me I'm smart and talented and all that but it's like I'm holding myself back from all these things that I could do. What's going on and has anyone ever had this problem and overcome it ?????????????
