How to Deal with Procrastination
1. Be honest with yourself and admit that you’re putting off stuff that really needs to be done.
2. Try and figure out why you’re procrastinating. Is it because you don’t like it, it creates anxiety, you don’t understand it, it feels overwhelming, you’re disorganised …?
3. Decide to break the habit of procrastination by deliberately rewarding yourself for doing something you’d rather not do.
4. Make a pact with a friend –where you deliberately and regularly encourage each other, and hold each other accountable.
5. Sit down and think – in detail – about all the likely consequences of not doing what needs to be done. Be brutally honest, and try and picture what you’re life is going to look like 6 months, a year and five years from now ( if you continue to procrastinate).
6. Decide to break large tasks down into smaller, more achievable tasks, and then tackle these smaller tasks one at a time.
7. Recognise your progress, and affirm and praise yourself for making these changes – and doing things differently, even though it’s hard.
mindset. it’s all about mindset. from the moment you wake up to the moment you rest your head at night. everything is up to you. your emotions, your thoughts, your perceptions, your reactions, every moment.

Irresistible Danger - Part 47
Synopsis: After being caught outside the compound on your own, Negan decides to punish you in the best way possible ;)
Characters: Negan x female reader
Words: 2,124
Warnings: nsfw, swearing, fluff, hints of smut but not really (sorry)
Author’s Note: I know, I KNOW! Two updates in the same month! I was shocked, as well! I’ve had the idea for this chapter (and the next chapter) in my head ever since a certain cooking scene happened on the show. And I knew I wanted it to happen after they first slept together, so I’m thrilled that we’ve finally gotten to that point. This chapter is pretty short and more a transition/fluff chapter, but there will be some…ahem…fun content in the next chapter. Until then, enjoy!
Afterglow
You woke up an indefinable amount of time later, snuggling closer to the furnace that was in front of you. Furnace? Your sleep-fogged brain struggled to comprehend why you were pressed up against something so warm, and why the mattress felt softer than usual…
Negan.
It was as if your brain finally snapped to attention, and you instantly remembered where you were…and what had happened. You froze so hard that you even held your breath, eyes cracking open slowly. Except for the glow from the still-on lamp by the door, the room was hazy with darkness, signaling that it was probably the middle of the night. You remembered falling asleep on top of Negan, but must’ve rolled off him at some point, since you were now on the mattress, both of you on your sides and facing one another.
Your naked bodies were pressed together, legs entwined and one of his arms thrown over your waist, as if to keep you from leaving. His face was lying on the pillow right in front of yours, the warm puffs of his breath rustling the little tendrils of hair on your cheek. You drank in as many details as you could in the dimmed room, his features softer and more relaxed in sleep, shaving years off and making him look impossibly young. He was so handsome that you had to resist the urge to reach out and trace down along his strong nose and across his soft lips.

Warnings: FINALLY SMUT, this whole chapter is pretty much smut with some fluff, nsfw, swearing
Author’s Note: It’s FINALLY here. Almost two years of writing this story, and we finally get some smut between these two! I was SO nervous to write this chapter, and don’t wanna even say how much I over analyzed ever single sentence. However, I’m thrilled with the final product, and hope y’all are, as well. I wanted to combine the fluffy feels with the sexiness, and make “you” almost seem in charge of the situation, at least emotionally, while still having Negan retain his status as the sex god that we all know he is. Hopefully that all comes across in this chapter. So, without further ado…enjoy ;)
Slow Burn
The bedroom was dark, with the stars glistening faintly through the large, uncurtained windows. Before you could worry about stubbing your toe on the bed or tripping and ruining the moment, you felt Negan tug you gently to the side and reach for something. With a click, the standing lamp near the door turned on, giving off just enough light to form a muted glow around the room.
You looked up at Negan, the planes of his left cheek thrown into the light, his eyes dark, yet soft, as he gazed back at you, awaiting your next move. Suddenly nervous, you tried to act confident, but were certain your voice came out a bit uncertain.
“I think this is the part where you start kissing me.”
A grin broke across Negan’s face, and he wrapped his free arm around your waist, pulling you in close to his body, his other hand still holding your own.
“I think I can do that, doll,” he murmured, the last words spoken against your mouth as he pressed his lips into yours.
The kiss was slow, and fairly PG. It was as if you were learning each other’s mouths all over again…as if it were the first time. Which was actually a bit amusing, seeing as how your first kiss with him had been like an instant blaze of fire followed by a cold rush of reality. But this…this was a slow burn. One that gradually built in your gut, the embers warming you from the inside out. It felt like forever before he traced your lips with his tongue, prompting you to open your mouth and allow him to deepen the kiss. And, even then, the pace was lazy and unhurried, like you had all the time in the world.
Eventually, you drew back slightly, trying to catch your breath. Giving a huffed laugh against his mouth, you whispered, “I really hope no one interrupts this time.”
Negan pulled his head back, staring down at you with his no-nonsense, serious face in place. “Doll, I will fucking rip someone’s head off if they try to come in here right now.”
Your lips twitched in mirth at his words. Truth be told, you felt the same way, and pitied any poor soul who might make such a grave mistake. Tonight, you wanted Negan to yourself, and no one was going to keep that from happening.
You had to admit, this wasn’t how you had originally planned for your first time with him to happen. And you’d be lying if you said you hadn’t thought about how it would happen. Extensively.

Be Honest With Me
You marched to Negan’s room, your mind racing and so focused on the questions swirling around in it, that you hardly even remembered going up the stairs and walking down the hall. In fact, it almost seemed as if you had just suddenly appeared in front of his door, and before you knew it, your hand was raising to knock on the solid wood. After hearing his muffled, ‘come in,’ you turned the knob and opened the door, stepping inside.
He was sitting at his desk, black-rimmed glasses perched on his nose and papers spread out all across the gleaming surface of the desk, most likely full of inventory lists and numbers from the recent run. He glanced up sternly, for just a moment, before refocusing on the papers in front of him. He had obviously been expecting someone else, because his eyes widened in surprise and jerked back up to latch onto your own, before his lips stretched into a genuine smile of greeting. You couldn’t help but smile back, a warm, fuzzy feeling starting up in your chest that only added to the confusing plethora of feelings bouncing around inside you.
Hesitantly closing the door, you stepped further into the room. Negan pulled the glasses off and set them on the desk, before pinching the bridge of his nose between two fingers. The chair squeaked across the floor, as he pushed it back with his legs and stood up.

Anticipation
The following day couldn’t seem to go fast enough. There had been multiple times where you looked down at your watch, only to internally groan to see that only a few scant minutes had passed since the last time you checked. It wasn’t as if this was the first time you’d been invited to Negan’s rooms after dinner; far from it. But, this time felt different, especially after that kiss the two of you had shared against his desk last night. You felt goosebumps pop up along your forearms just remembering the way he had pulled your body into his, causing you to feel both safe and utterly terrified at the intimacy of the moment. And while it was possible that you were reading too much into it, your gut told you that he hadn’t said the word “date” lightly…that the word choice had been deliberate.
Course, there was always the chance that you’d show up and find things no different than before, that you were placing too much importance on tonight, and imagining things that weren’t even there. Your subconscious grabbed that little ball of doubt, before it could manifest into something larger, and effectively punted it across the kitchen.

Author’s Note: I am SO excited and nervous about this chapter, because I wasn’t at all expecting it to end up where it did. However, “you” and Negan kinda took over, and I let them do as they wanted, so this is the result.
P.S. I know this isn’t a Negan gif, but I wanted a gif of him in black and looking more date-esque and adorable, to go along with the tone of this chapter.
The Date
You stood frozen for a long moment, drinking in the situation, before stepping forward to the offered seat. The table and chairs were a dark wood, like mahogany, and looked expensive. The chair had a soft, emerald green cushion that matched the rug and was incredibly comfortable as you sat down on it, allowing Negan to push you in close to the table.
You could feel his body heat enveloping you, as he leaned down so that the scruff on his chin brushed your cheek. Fighting back a shiver, you felt a gentle tug on a lock of your hair, at the same moment that he whispered in your ear.
“I sure do like it when you let your hair down, doll.”
You tried to ignore the chilly feeling of loss when he unwrapped his fingers from your hair and moved away to walk back to his own chair. Making a mental note to give Ben an extra serving of tomorrow night’s dessert, as thanks for his suggestion, you tucked away this snippet of intel for the future. It was exhilarating to know that such a simple change in appearance was noticeable and appreciated by the handsome man in front of you.
You watched as Negan unfurled his silverware with long fingers and delicately folded the napkin in his lap. It wasn’t until he looked up, cocking an eyebrow in question, that you realized you had just been sitting there staring at him. Ducking your head, you reached for your own silverware and mirrored his movements. He was already twirling some of the alfredo pasta onto his fork, so you followed suit, the two of you munching in companionable silence for a few minutes.
You noticed that while the sun was still bright, it wasn’t beating down as hard as earlier, and that within the hour it would start its slow descent, turning the world to night. The thought of being up on this roof with Negan when it got dark caused a strange twisting in your gut. There was something forbidden about being up here, alone with him, that was both terrifying and exciting.
*Swoon* ❤😍❤👌
