This creation of the word "precrastination" is definitely mindless. It should be "prohesternation" instead.
[edit]The noun "procrastination" comes from the verb "procrastinate", which is from Latin pro (forward) + crastinus (of tomorrow). Thus, it means "to do it tomorrow". Consequently, the opposite meaning should be "to do it yesterday". Therefore, the antonym of the noun "procrastination" should be "prohesternation", from the verb "prohesternate", which is from Latin pro (forward) + hesternus (yesterday). --Yejianfei (talk) 05:29, 26 June 2019 (UTC)
