Question: Rather than providing advice about how not to procrastinate, Graham offers some guidance on how to do it well. In your own words, how would you summarize Graham's advice? Do you agree with Graham? Why or why not?
What Graham is saying is that no one can do everything at once. It's impossible to not procrastinate, because there's just too much to do. Since procrastination is inevitable, one might as well focus on the more important tasks, such as writing a novel or a "magnum opus on Sumerian temple architecture," instead of small errands like cleaning the house or doing laundry. I agree with Graham because he is right, we can't do it all, so the parts we can do should be most important. The more important things we do, the better we make society and leave marks on this world, and everyone wants to be remembered.
I agree with the author on this chapter, I feel that it is very true when he says that it is impossible not to procrastinate when you have so much to do. I also agree with the author when he states that when we procrastinate we might as well focus on much more important stuff to do
