Tim Urban's written a bit about procrastination.
http://waitbutwhy.com/2013/10/why-procrastinators-procrastinate.html
The "zones" refers to what he calls "The Eisenhower Matrix" or "the Procrastinator's Matrix".
Essentially, zones 1 & 2 are 'important', zones 1 & 3 are 'urgent'. And procrastinators tend to hang out in zone 4 until deadlines make them rush into zone 1 or 3 for a bit. Zone 2 tends to be where most of the real fulfilling stuff in life happens.
