The Procrastinator's Guide to the Galaxy

Illustration, Print

For some, procrastination is more than an occasional guilty pleasure – it’s a lifestyle. This desk kit was developed for an advanced graphics module using Tim Urban’s brilliant web comics, and serves to gently nudge long-suffering procrastinators towards more productive habits. The handmade kit includes a short storybook designed to elicit self-awareness and a few additional helpful tools: a reward poster, mantra cards and a decision-making fortune teller.
