Maybe putting off things you don't want to do would seem more like a negative thing if we didn't have a word for it.
But as it is, you can put a nice little "PROCRASTINATION" label on it and it seems like such a natural thing.
Also, it makes it seem like it is an activity in itself.
"What are you doing?"
"Oh, I'm procrastinating."
Sheesh.
