Prayers for schoolwork and procrastination

[CatholicTrekkie]

Hello everyone.

I would like to ask some people to keep me in their prayers. The school year is starting and I’m having some big issues with procrastination and keeping up with my schoolwork. I’m also having a hard time praying at all. Also keep a friend of mine in your prayers, as he struggles with these things as well.

I thank you for your time and prayers. God Bless!

I do sympathise with you and your friend, procrastination is one of my besetting sins too.

Lord, Please help these students to overcome their procrastination and to be diligent in their obligations and tasks so that they can fulfil their true potential. Remind us all that time is a precious resource and teach us to make the most of it. Amen.

St. Expeditus please pray for them.

Prayers are wonderful. I always try to pray for my students.

However prayer should lead to action and/or change in our attitudes and actions. Prayer time for a procrastinator can be just another tool for not living up to our responsibilities.

In addition to prayer…

You might want to talk with your school’s academic advisors or tutoring center about time management techniques.

Getting started is a problem shared by millions! Hang in there, make a plan with your friend and stick to it. Pray together for the Holy Spirit to lead and guide you through your studies. Pick a reward that you can enjoy after you finish your work so that you have something to look forward to. If you establish a routine and stick to it you will find it easier and easier to get the job done. God bless you.

Praying for you and your friend as you fight procrastination. I suffered from the same thing when I was in school. The worst part was that I was a perfectionist procrastinator - everything had to be perfect even if I was procrastinating.

Hail Mary, full of grace, the Lord is with you. Blessed are you among women and blessed is the fruit of your womb, Jesus. Holy Mary, Mother of God, pray for us sinners now, and at the hour of our death. Amen.

Our Father, who art in heaven, hallowed by thy name. Thy kingdom come, thy will be done on earth as it is in heaven. Give us this day our daily bread; and forgive us our trespasses as we forgive those who trespass against us; and lead us not into temptation, but deliver us from evil. Amen.

St. Thomas Aquinas, patron saint of students, pray for us!

May God bless you and your friend with fortitude and strength to avoid the temptation to be lazy and procrastinate. May He give you both the drive to always so what is right. Amen.

Mother Mary, please help Catholic Trekkie and his/her friend to be prayerful and diligent. Please help them to begin and end their day in prayer and to be recollected throughout the day.

Hail Mary…

Amen.
