The main effect of being a procrastinator is that it can lead to low self esteem.
If we can't complete the tasks we start, if we can't accomplish our goals it can make us feel tense, stressed, anxious or resentful. The obvious effect of procrastination is in missed opportunities and lack of progress in work BUT It can also lead to unhealthy and uncomfortable relationships. People close to us feel we don't care enough for them
Procrastinators are likely to suffer from social phobia, anxiety and also have higher incidence of depression and substance abuse.
