People will tell you it's okay to procrastinate, that it gives your brain a chance to mull.

There's something to that.  Just don't make the mistake of procrastinating by internet (surfing, blogging, email) because those activities use the part of your brain that you're trying to save for mulling.

Instead, procrastinate by doing something physical.
