Om bhūr bhuvah svah
Motto:
“ vyadhi styana samshaya pramada alasya avirati bhranti-darshana alabdha-bhumikatva anavasthitatva chitta vikshepa te antarayah.
Nine kinds of distractions come that are obstacles naturally encountered on the path, and are physical illness, tendency of the mind to not work efficiently, doubt or indecision, lack of attention to pursuing the means of samadhi, laziness in mind and body, failure to regulate the desire for worldly objects, incorrect assumptions or thinking, failing to attain stages of the practice, and instability in maintaining a level of practice once attained. - Yoga Sutra - Patanjali
This sutra is somehow the Indian definition of the SIN and, I believe, here lay the true source of Indian hell and all those interpretations that are not natural to Indians culture.
European and middle east culture define SIN like “missing the target” and many examples where made with archers that aim something, if they miss the target, then this is a SIN, if they hit the target, they accomplished them target in life.
Sure, an archer like Arjuna could not miss the target, but what about others ?
This sutra define all the nine causes for the SIN in the view of the ancient Indians culture. Problem is they defined, also, the aim we must follow in life.
On the other hand, they let to everyone the freedom to choose the way to accomplish that.
I mean, we could not be all archers
Now, about the title, about this ... artistic habit of procrastination
Some would say ...
To quote a brother, I would say ... Hmmm
This state, like all the others, could ... happen to us too but, we must understand that they have to be temporarily.
This artistic feeling could lead to something extraordinary (that for the importance that Min of Education or Media could have) but, if we remain at the ... procrastination then nothing will happen (nor good, nor bad, still meaning Nothing).
Italians could call it “dolce far niente” and this could be the true motto of Garfield because involving at least two terms that he love, sweet and doing nothing.
Sure, Garfield is just a cat (meaning just some small resemblance with a true Tiger).

v1 now time to decifer
*Mesmerized*
SIN is entirely different in Asian sense sply Indian.
Good as always.
The human mind's inherent limitation when it reads something about *self*, it tries to judge if such reference is a praise or criticism and I fail to understand it here..
