[...] la procrastinación genera estrés, ansiedad, remordimientos y lesiona la autoestima. [...] Al contrario de lo que hasta ahora se pensaba, las últimas investigaciones señalan que el procrastinar tiene que ver con un excesivo perfeccionismo. Este, en psicología consiste en la creencia de que la perfección existe como entidad autónoma y se puede alcanzar. [...] El posponer constantemente una actividad puede ser la respuesta al miedo y parálisis cuya causa es el querer alcanzar en todo ese ideal de perfección. 1, record 1, Spanish, - procrastinaci%C3%B3n
