That works for some things, but I feel like it breaks down when others put tasks on your TODO list. For example, when I finish a task around the house, my wife adds more, so by procrastinating, I'm reducing the total amount of work I do.

So there's always some element of prioritization, which means procrastinating on some things and not procrastinating on others. I think my trouble is properly prioritizing, and I'm sure that's similar for others as well.
