: If anyone asks what you're doing, tell them you're in the "incubation phase" of the creative process. It works every time.

: If you’re a writer, browse Reddit prompts until the perfect idea hits you like a lightning bolt. If it doesn't hit today, there's always tomorrow.

: You can’t possibly work on that big project if your desk is a mess. Spend two hours deep-cleaning your keyboard with a Q-tip. It’s not stalling; it’s optimizing your workspace .

If you're going to put things off, you might as well look like a genius while doing it. Here is how to master the art:

: Watch a video about becoming a great tour guide . You aren't avoiding your math homework; you're diversifying your future career options .

: Instead of doing the task, create a step-by-step outline for how you will do the task. Color-code it. Add stickers. By the time the plan is perfect, it’s basically lunch time.

: Need to write one paragraph? Better spend three hours reading the entire Wikipedia history of the Punderdome or why people find punny names for tour guides so hilarious.
