Summary of the talk
In this talk, the speaker has told us that, procrastinator----which is all of us, have three main entities in our mind.

The Rational Decision Maker
Which is the one who makes sensible choices and tries to make sense of things in order.
The Instant-Gratification Monkey
Whose one and only priority is to find what’s fun and what’s easy.
The Panic Monster
Who appears just before deadlines to strike fear into our hearts about the dire consequences of the Monkey’s actions.

Take a look at the talk if you feel interesting.
