It is impossible to procrastinate if you practice mindfulness meditation for 45 mins to 1 hr.

There's plenty of good research in to the benefits of mindfulness meditation, but I've never seen anything go quite that far.

Edited it. Basically, for me at least, meditation creates a bias towards action. I feel procrastination relates to biochemistry (serotonin, dopamine etc) and somehow meditation kind of "fixes" the issue temporarily. If I stop meditating, I quickly revert back to the old me.
